Mexico

When most people think of visiting Mexico, the first thing they think of is Cancun. But what a lot of people don’t know is that Mexico has so much more to offer than all inclusive hotels, clubs, and loads of college kids running around celebrating spring break.

On the Pacific Coast of Mexico lies some of the most beautiful yacht cruising grounds. The country has a versatile combination of blue waters, desert landscapes and volcanic islands.

Baja California

Mexico is also the home of the great Mayan, Aztec and Olmec empires existing more than 2,000 years ago.

With all of the great scenery that not many would think exists in Mexico, the best way to experience it all is by boat. As you cruise through the Sea of Cortez also known as the Gulf of California and seeing the beautiful deserts and beaches, then continuing to La Paz and the islands off Baja’s coast.

The waters here are one of the most diverse for marine animals such as sea turtles, dolphins, hammerhead sharks, and different species of whale like the humpback, the killer whale and the humpback whale. Baja Mexico’s Sea of Cortez is a rich body of water and has some of the most fascinating bio regions that its nicknamed “the aquarium of the world”.

Cabo San Lucas

Your yachting experience in Mexico will begin in Cabo San Lucas which is the southern tip of Baja California. This location is the starting point for many yacht cruises and it’s perfect for sailing through the Sea of Cortez.

One of the many natural attractions at this starting point is the “Corridor”. It’s a strip of land about a 18 miles long where the desert meets sea between Cabo San Lucas and San Jose. From Cabo San Lucas to La Paz you can whale watch from your yacht, go fishing, dive through the shipwrecks, caves an reefs.

La Paz sits at the end of Mexico’s Baja California Sur peninsula and the English translation is “peace”, making it the perfect place for your Mexican yacht experience.
If you want to venture away from the waters, you are free to cycle to some of the cultural sites or hop in a car to explore the beaches and deserts.
