Description

The experience is distinguished by offering more real time in the destinations, a careful and humane service, and logistics designed for you to enjoy without rush or crowds. We leave from strategic marinas closer to the island, which allows us to make better use of the day and reduce sailing times. We visit unspoilt and quiet beaches, snorkel with sea lions responsibly, and close the day in Balandra at sunset, one of the most special moments of the tour. All this accompanied by fresh Punta Baja style foods, drinks included, comfortable boats and certified guides that really engage in your experience. The same island... what changes is who you live with.

Amazing day on the water - highly recommend

Amazing day with superb guides Javier, Florian and captain Lobo. Multi lingual guides sharing their vast knowledge in Spanish, French and English to cater for all guests. Javier and Florian were so attentive throughout. Non stop offers for drinks, delicious lunch served in an amazing setting. Snorkelled with sea lions, saw dolphins, spent time in beautiful beaches/bays with time to explore. Well worth the money and would highly recommend.

Amazing eco friendly tour

WOW! Where do I start? This was a special tour. First we swam with sea lions and a big papa swam right next to us 😬. Real surprised to see how majestic they are in the water. Then we snorkeled a couple of really cool spots. The guides gave us all the backstories and information that made it so interesting. To say they are professionals is not enough. Our lunch on a secluded beach was out of this world. Then capped it off with a stop at the most famous beach Balandra! Book it now !

Everything was beautiful, but the snorkeling was, without a doubt, the best experience of the tour. It was my first time doing it and I

I had an incredible experience with Punta Baja Tours visiting Espíritu Santo Island. I highly recommend this company. Captain Orion and the guides Edgar and Majo were very kind, professional, and knowledgeable. They answered all my questions in a very attentive and pleasant manner. I would choose them again without a doubt.

Unmissable tour

We loved this tour. The guides, Javier and Sam, are excellent hosts. Espíritu Santo Island is the most beautiful one we have ever visited. We highly recommend it. As a recommendation, you can contact Baja Adventures directly and book with them to save a little.

Fun times!

One of the highlights of our trip to La Paz! Being picked up and dropped off directly at our Airbnb made everything incredibly easy. The scenery around Espíritu Santo Island was absolutely breathtaking, and swimming and snorkeling with the sea lions was an unforgettable experience. The guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire day fun and well organized. If you're visiting La Paz, this tour is a must do!

Paradise Below the Surface

What an incredible experience from start to finish! Javi and the entire crew were fantastic guides—they were friendly, knowledgeable, and made everyone feel safe and welcome throughout the tour. They took us to some absolutely breathtaking snorkeling spots with crystal-clear water and spectacular marine life. Seeing so many colorful fish and beautiful underwater scenery made this an unforgettable adventure. The ceviche was absolutely delicious and the perfect way to wrap up the trip. On top of that, the atmosphere on the boat was amazing. The crew kept the vibes fun, relaxed, and enjoyable the entire time, making the experience even more memorable. I can't recommend this tour enough. If you're looking for an unforgettable snorkeling adventure with an outstanding crew, this is it. I'll definitely be coming back again on my next visit!
