"Well it was just another wonderful Baja kayak tour with great weather, fine beach campsites, star gazing and nightly checks of the position of the moons of Jupiter, snorkeling, hiking, bird watching, and on and on. Ryan and Joel were great hosts and I will be back next year for another tour."

The group meets at Cafe Ole in downtown Loreto at 10:00am, where following an introductory orientation, we shop as a group for the trip meals.

Once we arrive we'll set up our base camp and spend some time orienting ourselves and reviewing day trip options, the afternoon will be free to relax, go for a swim, or chill out in the hot springs. We'll return to the base camp and enjoy a dinner provided by our guides and enjoy the sunset.
