(2 reviews)

8 hours 30 minutes (approximately)
Offered in: English and 1 more

There’s just no other way to say it… you simply can’t experience the beauty of Espiritu Santo Island -UNESCO World Heritage Site- until you get out on the water. Snorkeling with sea lions, surrounded by fish, invertebrates and birds, will make those moments when pups frolick around you magical. Savor our local flavors, with our delicious home-made fish and veggie ceviche, while you bask in the Sun at the beach. What makes this tour unique is the moment when you stand on our super-fun mega-paddelboards. Experience Espiritu Santo Island like few others, paddling along the shoreline, awed by meeting of desert and sea and there’s more, when fish leaping out of the water, pelicans diving from up high or turtles coming up for air appears suddenly. You won’t find anything like this anywhere else, so join us and knock this iconic La Paz experience off your bucket list.

*Note: During the mating season from June 1 to August 31, snorkeling takes place at the San Rafaelito instead of Los Islotes.

What to expect

We meet up at our shop at 7:00 to gear up, then we boat to the sea lion colony at Los Islotes. Once there, we get ready and slip into the water to snorkel with playful sea lion pups among colorful coral reefs.

Then we head to one of the many beautiful beaches on the island for lunch. Lunch is included; let us know if you have dietary preferences at the time of your booking. We have delicious local ceviche or hummus.

Once we finish lunch, we get ready and paddle among the desert, sea, and mangroves at Espiritu Santo island.

This tour is appropriate for all ages and paddleboard experience levels. Beginner? No problem! We include an introduction to paddleboarding.

After paddleboarding, we will load our skiff with all our gear and make our way back to La Paz, with an estimated arrival at Eco Migrations at 3:30 p.m.

* From June to August, the breeding sea lion colony at Los Islotes is closed. During these months, we snorkel at the San Rafaelito rookery, which is much closer to La Paz and is composed mostly of juveniles.

NOTE: We will wait 15 minutes before being forced to cancel the outing for the tardy party. There will be no refund in case of no show. Please arrive punctually.
