Baja Ocean Adventure

Flexible Itinerary

Although you may set out with a general itinerary, your group and guides have the freedom to change course. Weather, kayaking and snorkeling conditions, as well as seasons of marine life in the area will shape the days and make each one optimal, showcasing the best of Baja.

Packing

It is of utmost importance to pack light for this trip! Too much weight causes the boats to be overloaded. Bring only what you will use. If you have extra gear you will not need on the trip the re-supply truck can transfer your gear between Loreto and La Paz and have it waiting at the hotel.

Bring a small to mid-sized duffle (approximately 14x14x24inches or 35x35x60cm) for clothing and personal items. If bringing your own sleeping gear bring another duffle of similar size for your sleeping bag, pad and pillow OR you can combine them into one larger duffle approximately 18x18x35inches or 45x45x90cm. Plus you will want to bring a day-pack for extra clothing, water bottle, sunscreen and camera to have with you daily. Snorkel gear and a wetsuit is yet another bag you may have while on the trip.
