This all-inclusive holiday is actually 14 days long! We are out on our kayaking trip for twelve days. We take care of all the planning needed to come and explore the ultimate Baja coastline. We pick you up at the airport, and arrange a shuttle into town from Loreto International Airport and back again at the end of the trip. Your accommodation in town on March 11th and 12th is included. The following day we head out on our twelve-day trip down the coast. When we return twelve days later, your accommodation is included on March 24th. Everything except your personal camping items for the expedition and your personal in-town meals and fun in Loreto is covered. You just need to book your flight!

Your group, along with OSKC senior guides James and Dympna, will meet up in Loreto Airport on March 11th. We will accompany you to our accommodation in town and show you around. You will have the afternoon and Sunday to acclimatize and sort your gear before our pre-trip briefing Sunday evening. We depart the following morning!

This expedition is from Loreto to La Paz trip.  We will put-in at Ensenada Blanca, just south of Loreto and add a 12th day to the trip. This should then give us enough time to paddle, snorkel, and explore the coast. The whole shoreline is stunning and we will be paddling high-end fibreglass kayaks. The trip is around 200 kms so we paddle 20kms/day giving us time for hikes and snorkeling!

We end the trip on Friday, March 24. Our trip ends on Saturday, March 25, when we drop you at the airport in Loreto for your flight home…or perhaps you’re going to rent a car and head out to explore some of the rest of Beautiful Baja. We have traveled to many other places in Baja so we are happy to help you with your plans if we decide to extend your holiday.

Amazing trip. One of the most beautiful parts of the country, and how better to see and explore it than in a kayak? Great company. Fabulous food, and abundant fish. One of the true remaining wilderness experiences in Canada, far away from civilization. Rugged, unspoilt landscape where we could trace billions of years of history in the rocky cliffs and also spot a few bears.
