Round the East Cape, head up the coast of the Sea of Cortez, and you'll find yourself in a pristine landscape of untamed beauty. White beaches frame radiantly turquoise waters where local fishermen head out each morning in their panga boats as they've done for generations.
La Paz proper is a cosmopolitan little city; the capital of Baja Sur simultaneously offers modern amenities and traditional Mexican charm. Less than an hour from
La Paz, you'll encounter a magical meeting of breathtaking desert scenery, tranquil coves where whales migrate each year to give birth, and enchanting islands shimmering in the distance.

Here you'll find
enchanting vacation properties overlooking some of the most moving vistas you'll encounter. At the exclusive community of
Rancho las Cruces, Hollywood greats like Bing Crosby and Desi Arnaz built second homes where they could enjoy incomparable seclusion. At the
Bay of Dreams, sugar-fine stretches of beach invite you to spend an afternoon strolling or day-dreaming.
The pace is the perfect antidote to Cabo's non-stop bustle. Step out onto the warm sands, crack open a beer and settle in for a refreshing taste of old Baja, minus the crowds.
