Discover why Balandra Beach & Bay ranks among the world’s top 15 beaches. Relax on powdery sands, wade through turquoise waters, and bask in Mexico’s stunning coastal beauty near La Paz.

 

EXPERIENCE:

Your adventure begins with a seamless pickup from Los Cabos. Enjoy a comfortable transfer through the scenic landscapes of Baja California Sur, where the rugged desert meets the glimmering coastline. Anticipation builds as you make your way to Marina Palmira in La Paz, the gateway to the region’s most breathtaking sea experiences.

Once at the marina, step aboard a luxurious yacht and indulge in a continental-style breakfast. Fresh pastries, fruit, and hot coffee set the tone for a day of exploration and relaxation. As the yacht departs, the sea breeze welcomes you, cruising toward San Rafaelito.

San Rafaelito emerges on the horizon, a haven for sea lions and marine life. The crystal-clear waters invite you in for a unique snorkelling experience. With expert guidance from a local certified guide on board with us, swim alongside playful sea lions and vibrant schools of fish. Marvel at the underwater world teeming with colour and life before continuing your journey toward the next coastal wonder, Balandra Beach.

Your journey continues to the stunning Balandra Bay, home to one of the world’s most beautiful beaches. As the yacht anchors in these serene turquoise waters, you’ll find a comfortable setting onboard with shaded areas, ample seating, and top-tier amenities. Relax and refresh with two hotel-style restrooms, air conditioning, and water toys. The skilled crew ensures your comfort with abundant food, soft drinks, juices, water, ice, and a variety of alcoholic beverages, including margaritas, cocktails, and domestic beers.

Spend 2-3 hours immersed in Balandra’s natural beauty. Swim or snorkel in crystal-clear shallows, explore the iconic mushroom-shaped rock formation, or wander with a paddleboard through the nearby mangrove forest. If you prefer, follow (or go by yourself) a certified guide on a scenic hike to experience the breathtaking views of the bay. Every moment here connects you with the unspoiled beauty of Baja California Sur.

To complete your adventure, a delectable lunch awaits you. Savour fresh seafood, ceviche, turkey and cheese sandwiches, traditional Mexican salsas, and a spread of fruits, vegetables, and something sweet—all freshly prepared by the attentive crew. Sip on a cold beer or a handcrafted cocktail as you soak in the last moments of Balandra’s magic.

After a day of exploration and luxury, the yacht returns to Marina Palmira. From there, relax on your return transfer to Los Cabos, with one stop at a special place known for its countryside experience and gastronomic variety as a pit stop (optional) and a final stop at your pickup point. This unforgettable 12-hour journey leaves you with memories of turquoise waters, playful sea lions, and the untouched splendour of La Paz Bay.
