his 8.5 hour tour takes us around Espíritu Santo Island, where we snorkel coral reefs with playful sea lions & paddleboard one of the islands beautiful beaches. We pack a great lunch, and it’s a family-friendly day of Fun-in-th-Sun!
La Paz is home to many charismatic marine animals, and sea lions are one of the most popular – we’d like to show you why! Leaving La Paz in the morning, we’ll make the 60 minute boat journey to the northern point of Espiritu Santo Island, to the sea lion colony at Los Islotes. Here we’ll slide into the water to snorkel the reef, while playful and curious sea lion pups dart around us. This rocky outcrop showcases beautiful shallow coral, with many fish species and a host of birds.
Once we’ve finished snorkeling, we make our way to one of the many beautiful beaches on the island for our lunch break. After lunch and a rest, we start our second activity with a brief introduction to paddleboarding, and then go exploring the coastline of Espíritu Santo Island.
The various beaches of Espíritu Santo Island offer rocky outcrops, mangroves, long sandy beaches and fascinating geography, and we never know what we’ll see out on the water. We eventually head home, with an approximate return time of 4:30pm.
* From June-August, the breeding sea lion colony at Los Islotes is closed. During these months, we snorkel at San Rafaelito rookery, which is much closer to La Paz and is composed mostly of juveniles.
Meeting time: 8 am.
