SPECIAL EXPEDITIONS -- For 2008/09 we are offering three exciting special sea kayak expeditions in Baja, Mexico.

New for 2008 is the Baja Coastal trip - a fully-catered 9 day kayaking holiday exploring the coast north of La Paz in the Sea of Cortez.

The Loreto to La Paz trip is an 11 day self-contained expedition that travels along the coast from Loreto south towards La Paz.

The successful Pacific Lagoon trip, a 6 day adventure on the Pacific side
of Baja, is now offered twice so more people can see the 'other side' of Baja.

BAJA COASTAL TRIP -- A special 9 day sea kayak holiday in Baja exploring some of the finest scenery between Loreto and La Paz. With no maintained road access and only a few small fishing villages untouched by the trappings of the modern world it is a perfect place to get away. This trip is 'Fully-Catered' with full time motorboat (called a Panga) support. The Panga carries all our food and expedition gear to the next campsite while we paddle light kayaks. Coolers aboard the Panga allow for special food and drink throughout the trip. The Panga crew and guides take care of all the cooking and clean up. This is a shorter, less rigorous version of the Loreto to La Paz trip.

The package includes 2 nights at a nice hotel in La Paz, 7 days paddling with 6 nights camping on pristine wilderness beaches and a farewell dinner at an excellent La Paz restaurant.

BAJA PACIFIC LAGOON -- 6 days /5 nights exploring the Pacific lagoon of Magdalena Bay, a narrow channel protected from the turbulent ocean by Isla Magdalena. Sand dunes situated on the Isla provide a contrast to the labyrinth of mangroves along the Baja coastline. The La Florida estuary offers a view into another vibrant ecosystem. The bay is also the winter home of Gray whales who migrate 6000 miles to mate and give birth in these protected waters. The January trip will likely see the whales. Paddling the narrow waterways is interspersed with beach combing the Pacific, jumping off sand dunes and the usual games and natural history education. The trip is suited for those who have some previous experience. It is a 40 mile journey and will average approximately three hours of paddling a day, including some longer days. We have added a day this year so there is more time for exploring and relaxation. This unique expedition will surely be a wonderful adventure.

This trip includes 6 days paddling and 5 nights camping with two night's hotel in La Paz and a farewell dinner at an excellent La Paz restaurant.

LORETO to LA PAZ -- This 11 day expedition explores some of the finest scenery in southern Baja -from Loreto to La Paz . We camp on soft sand beaches, overlooked by an enormous and spectacular mountain range, the Sierra de la Giganta; in many places sheer cliffs hundreds of feet high plunge directly into the Gulf. This area has a very low amount of seafaring traffic but an amazing amount of marine activity. Expect daily dolphin sightings, perhaps whales and pristine snorkeling areas. We nearly always indulge in fresh fish and lobster, so feel free to bring your own fishing line and help catch dinner! With several rest days and paddling 4 hours on most days (expect one long day) the trip is great break from every day life.

This trip includes 10 days paddling, 9 nights camping with two night's hotel in La Paz and a farewell dinner at an excellent La Paz restaurant.
