PARQUE MARINO NACIONAL BAHÍA DE LORETO

Sublime, we have no other words to describe this national park and the riches it contains. It is perhaps with the sole motive of visiting the bay and its islands that some people go to Loreto. The bay has five major islands: Danzante, Monserrat, Catalina, del Darmen (the largest) and Coronado, the last two being the most visited. The richness of the underwater fauna and the beauty of the beaches of these islands are impressive; you will encounter colonies of sea wolves, groups of dolphins, rays, sea turtles and a large number of multicoloured fish. That's pretty representative of Mexico's incredible biodiversity! In February and March, you have a great chance of seeing blue whales or even killer whales. Not to mention the colonies of birds, both local and migratory, which you can observe especially in winter. In addition to the cooperative on the port, many agencies offer half-day trips to Coronado Island; services include snorkeling equipment rental, drinks and a snack on a beach. Others offer diving in the many sites to discover in the bay. But you can also discover the islands by kayak. You can also ask to be dropped off on the beach of Coronado Island in the morning, and then to be picked up in the afternoon: remember to bring drinks and food.
