In Baja’s Sea of Cortez, it’s all about the interplay between azure waters, arid deserts and isolated islands. Add kayaking to the mix and you’ve got a recipe for a perfect holiday! Each day you’ll paddle these calm waters between hidden coves, secluded bays, and remote beaches. Along with unforgettable paddling over crystal clear water, you’ll also have time to snorkel amid abundant marine wildlife and hike into the surrounding Sonoran Desert, a hiking wonderland packed with rich flora—most notably the giant Cardon cactus. When the day is over, survey the night sky untouched by light pollution and discharge as you listen to the waves crashing against the shores—there is more to explore tomorrow.

57hours is committed to providing safe outdoor adventure experiences. We require all guides using our platform to have a COVID-19 safety plan and to make the details of that plan accessible to travelers. In most cases, group sizes will be reduced, guides will avoid overcrowded locations, and other safety measures will be met depending on the location and activity.
We also expect clients to respect local regulations and take measures to protect themselves, guides and the communities they’re traveling to. For more information on COVID-19 measures in Baja California Sur please refer to the US Embassy’s COVID-19 information site for Mexico.
Please contact us if you have any questions or require further information. We are happy to provide you with the most up-to-date information!
What you get on this adventure:
Meals: Your guides can accommodate vegetarian, vegan, gluten free and other diets, but due to the nature of camps and kitchens, they can’t guarantee an environment completely free of cross contamination, and as such, can’t accommodate those with Celiac disease.
What’s not included:
The kayaking adventure in Baja California Sur is suitable for most people in fairly good physical condition. You don’t need any prior experience in kayaking and hiking to go on this trip, but you should be comfortable with 2 to 4 hours of paddling and a few hours of hiking each day (with breaks in between). The trip is not designed to be overly physically intense, but you will probably feel tired after a few days of daily physical activities—for that reason, there will be a possibility of taking a rest day during the adventure. The guides will adjust the daily amount of physical activity to meet your group’s desires and fitness levels.
Here’s a list of the equipment you need to bring:
Dress comfortably and for the weather in clothes you can move in. We suggest bringing clothing appropriate for the season. Layers are best and don’t wear jeans.
