Baja California: A Remarkable Journey

DAY 7 I GULF OF CALIFORNIA Today we enjoy the luxury of having no specific plan. You may spend time on the lookout for whales, as well as bottlenose and common dolphins; or explore some of the many uninhabited islands in the Gulf of California, such as Isla San Francisco or Isla San José, known for its sweeping beaches and arroyos. Birdlife is often plentiful, and the nutrient-rich sea is home to an incredible variety of fish, including angelfish, surgeonfish, butterfly fish, damselfish, and the beautiful parrotfish.
