Welcome to Loreto, Baja California Sur!
Loreto is located 750 miles south of San Diego on the
Lower California peninsula in Mexico. The peninsula is comprised of the
2 most northwestern states of Mexico- Baja California Norte and Baja
California Sur. Though Loreto is a more remote destination than other
touristy areas in "Baja", we do have the service of an
international airport. Driving is a great option for folks who have
some time before and after the tours. Please see the additional travel
information links below for more information about flying, driving and
busing into Loreto and Mexico.

(LTO) from Los Angeles (LAX). Alaska Air
