Located on the eastern coast of the Baja Peninsula, Loreto possesses an unforgettably tranquil location on the Sea of Cortez – worlds away from the bustle of Los Cabos. The warm, pristine waters around Loreto are legendary for sport fishing, with marlin, sailfish, dorado and numerous other species abundant among the offshore islands.

Loreto boasts a fascinating history as one of the oldest settlements in Baja. The enchanting colonial town offers an authentic glimpse of old Mexico and features a wealth of historical monuments including the 300-year old Mission of our Lady of Loreto.

Breathtaking scenery abounds, both on land and in the celebrated local waters. Divers can explore underwater caves, rock reefs and seamounts. Kayaking is an excellent way to explore secluded beaches and enjoy views of the cactus-studded hills. As the breeding and birthing ground for gray whales, the Sea of Cortez offers remarkable and intimate whale watching opportunities. Loreto Bay Golf Club, a David Duval 18-hole signature course, offers a stunning setting with glimmering ocean views.

Once a sleepy and remote outpost visited only by a handful of hardy travelers, Loreto today is embracing thoughtful development that honors the history and ecology of this unique setting.
