Why this trip: Itinerary
combines both coasts of Baja California, guaranteed whale sightings,
snorkeling and kayaking in two of Mexico's newest national parks -
novices welcome; best value, fully catered.
Loreto, Baja California (PRWEB) November 15,
2008 -- USA-based Sea Kayak Adventures, Inc. is offering an exciting
trip package where participants can be eyeball-to-eyeball with a gray
whale in Baja's federally protected calving lagoon Magdalena Bay and
paddle a kayak alongside dolphins, fin and blue whales in the clear
waters of the Sea of Cortez. Their eight-day "Baja Sea Kayaking and
Whale Watching Combo" itinerary, including travel days and three nights
hotel in Loreto, offers opportunities to get close to friendly whales,
explore uninhabited desert islands by stable sea kayak and snorkel
along isolated coves in clear turquoise waters - in essence to see the
best of Baja, fully led by naturalist guides. "This is by far our most
wildly popular trip and perfect for novices" smiles Terry Prichard,
company founder.
Clients fly 1 hour non-stop from Los
Angeles to Loreto. From there they cross the Baja California peninsula
to the Pacific coast into Magdalena Bay for the day to watch gray
whales and their newly born calves at close range from the safety of
motorized skiffs. Then back over to Loreto for five-days of sea
kayaking and camping in Mexico's newest national park - Parque Nacional
Bahia de Loreto - which serves as sanctuary for blue-footed boobies,
fin and blue whales, dolphins and sea lions. UNESCO has declared the
unique Sea of Cortez Islands a World Heritage Site. "No prior kayaking
experience is necessary - just good health and an eagerness for new
experiences" states Prichard, adding "We pamper you, including meeting
you at the Loreto airport and preparing fine meals from scratch". "We
went carbon neutral last year and donate to local environmental
organizations."
Weekly departures are scheduled from
January 27 through March 22, 2009. The price of $1330 US dollars per
person (double occupancy) includes three hotel nights in Loreto; all
meals; all camping, sleeping and sea kayaking equipment; airport
transfer and ground transportation, instruction and guides. 10% off for
youth ages 8-17. The company includes more guides and amenities in the
tour price than any other Loreto outfitter. Not included: air fare from
Los Angeles, gratuities, meals in town, $15 park fee.
