Sea of Cortez
DAY 1 La Paz Begin your journey in La Paz, which directly translates to “The Peace.” Its recent growth in population can be attributed to its high standard of living and security. Notable beaches abound in La Paz such as El Tesoro (treasure) and Balandra (slope). Sit back, pleasantly soak up the sun while enjoying the cool breeze, and sip on Margaritas onboard your private charter yacht during your 2-hour cruise to a beautiful calm anchorage in Isla Partida for a sumptuous dinner. DAY 2 Isla Partida The origins of Isla Partida (broken island) can be traced back to a series of cataclysmic earthquakes shaking its minerals to the surface. The rhythm of the Sea of Cortez beckons as you cruise north and weave your way along the sunset-painted desert coastline. Stop in remote coves for swimming, hiking, and soothing exploration via kayak. Come back to your charter yacht and soothe into a refreshing shower before settling into a luscious dinner accompanied by fine wine and good company. DAY 3 Los Islotes/ Isla Lobos An endless kaleidoscope of multi-colored fish, sea lions, and the refreshing winds of the uninhabited Los Islotes welcome you to snorkel and discover an underwater realm of beauty and excitement. The sea lions are a sight to behold as they merrily bark and play amongst their lounging peers in the gap between the rocky islets they dwell in. Diving and swimming with the sea lions is akin to jumping into a big bucket of Labrador puppies as they have become accustomed to visitors over the years. DAY 4 Isla San Francisco Warm winds sweeping across the dry desert island of Isla San Francisco add an edge of intrigue as this morning cruise promises hiking, beach yoga, kayaking, paddle boarding, and snorkeling in the extraordinarily clear, blue-colored water. Ample opportunities await past the sandy beach and into the cactus-filled desert. Meet endemic reptile species, discuss succulent plants, and taste the fascinating nipple cactus berry straight from nature’s plantation. An aerobic hike finds you topping the scenic ridge which divides the island, mystifyingly backlit by a cozy and warm sun. DAY 5 Isla Espirito Santo Floating towards what is considered to be the most beautiful island in the Sea of Cortez, you arrive to personally verify that assessment with your own eyes. A promising impression comes to life as you observe the contrast between the desert, the sea, and its rock formations of volcanic origin adorned by a concert of flora and fauna. Dinner is served to a melodic tune of birds chirping and conversations about the day’s wonders. DAY 6 & 7 Cabo San Lucas Glistening beaches, spectacular fertile waters, and majestic arching stone cliffs at Land’s End have enamored tourists from all corners of the world. Wake up to a delectable breakfast, go horseback riding down the beach, and prance in the water all day long. Beating conga lines forming to the rhythm of cheerful music and bartenders’ cocktail mixing raise the vibration of Cabo San Lucas, keeping everyone moving until the late hours of the night. On your second day in Cabo, become romanticized by Lover’s Beach, a private escapade only accessible by tender. Scenic views and an exotic desert landscape further your affection for nature’s grand design. Quench your thirst for adventure and seek out migrating gray whales on a fluorescent dive. You awaken the next morning with a feeling of satisfaction knowing you squeezed every drop of fun out of your yacht charter vacation, with aspirations of coming back for more.
