Sea Kayaking
- Mulege to Loreto
Itinerary for Mulege to Loreto
Day 1 - Arrival. For personal service we greet
you at the airport and arrange transfers to your waterfront hotel
in Loreto (alternate drive to Mulege for hotel overnight). Then,
join a group orientation meeting with Paddling South's owner, Trudi
Angell or one of the trip leaders. We'll answer questions and
discuss the next day's plan to help you get ready for a great
adventure. Ground transfers, route maps, a Bienvenidos! drink and
hotel are included.
Days 2-8 - We'll paddle a 70 mile section of coast
between the two coastal towns of Mulege and Loreto. On the outer coast
of Conception Bay, and down to the village of San Nicolás the coast has
remained fairly remote and unpopulated. At San Nicolás we hope to have
a chance to visit long-time friends at the oasis garden valley, in the
area just south - a hike to the top of Punta Púlpito, and then continue
on down to the beautiful protected yacht harbor of San Basilio bay.
Small rocky islands dot the bay and make for picturesque campsites.
With weather permitting, the final night of the tour will be spent on
Isla Coronado, a beautiful volcanic island, where lights of Loreto
glow in the distance.
Day 10 - This morning you will be on your own to
explore the town or just relax at the beautiful hotel restaurant patio
or pool. Flight departures are usually mid-day. Please check at the
hotel desk for best departure times for your flight. Taxis are generally
waiting to take folks the 4 mile ride out to the airport each day.
Paradise lost, we hope to see you in Baja again soon. Buen Viaje!
* Most trips we can cover the whole 70 mile route, but if weather
dictates, the groups end the tour at a take-out to the north of Loreto.
In October and May warm weather and low wind probabilities
encourage great snorkeling and camping. In early December and
January see the extra low rates coinciding with mid-week travel.
