La Paz Sea Lions Tour
Swim with the adorable sea lions is the funniest experience you can have in the ocean, in the scenario of the majestic Isla Espiritu Santo. Come and see all the beauty of the Espiritu Santo Island, the volcanic desert island of the Sea of Cortez! Snorkeling, sight seeing, bird watching. Espiritu Santo National Park in the Sea of Cortez is part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is one of the best marine life viewing destinations in the world. Swim safely and interact with the funny sea lions in the sea lion colony. Snorkel in the beautiful clear waters of the Sea of Cortes, that Jacques Costeau once described as the "aquarium of the world", with 31 species of marine mammals, 30 species of hard and soft corals, 500 species of fish and 4,848 known species of marine macro-invertebrates and 626 forms of macro-algae, 150 species of seabirds.
Reaching the island takes us around 45 minutes. Once we get there our activities are snorkeling with the playful sea lions, time to enjoy at one of the most beautiful beaches of the area, sight seeing and bird watching. Visit the large colony of frigate birds performing mating rituals in the famous nesting area of Bahia San Gabriel. Take pictures of the unique rock formations of the island, result of an intense and ancient volcanic activity.
