Loreto vacations

Located on the Sea of Cortez along the east coast of the Baja California peninsula, Loreto offers a quieter Mexican destination where the airport sits within walking distance of the beach. This unique setting combines desert and coastal landscapes, with cactus ranges and the Sierra de la Giganta mountains rising behind white-sand beaches. 

Visitors can explore through kayaking, mountain biking and snorkelling in Loreto Bay, while grey whales arrive at Del Carmen Island each winter for seasonal viewing. The protected waters of Loreto Bay National Marine Park support this marine environment by restricting large fishing operations to local fishermen only, establishing Loreto as Mexico's sport-fishing centre. 

The region's colonial past lives on through the Mission of Our Lady Loreto and its historic monuments, while cave paintings by Baja California's indigenous peoples remain preserved inland. Offshore exploration extends to the Coronado Islands for additional adventures. 

Book your Loreto vacation package and discover Baja California's blend of desert, sea and history.
