Day 1: Sail to the island of Los Islotes, it
is a group of small islands in the Sea of Cortez and a very popular
day motor boat trip from La Paz. The snorkeling is terrific, These
islands are inhabited by a large colony of California
sea lions, many of whom will swim and play with snorkelers or
divers. The islands are also used for nesting by thousands of
sea birds. This is a quiet place to spend the night at anchor
under the stars.
Day 2: would be to the island of Espiritu Santo
and the best anchorage which is Caleta Partita, 23 miles from
La Paz. The islands are breathtaking; a breached crater separates
Isla Espiritu Santo and Isla Partida. This anchorage, except where
it opens to the west is almost completely surrounded by high cliffs
and a small shallow straight that separates the two islands. This
is considered to be the most protected and best anchorage on the
islands. It certainly is the most popular given the number of
boats here. This is also where the Sea of Cortez Race
Week is held every April. Spend a day climbing to the top of an
old cinder cone on Espiritu Santo or if you are a little tired
after you sail you could do a little snorkeling while waiting
for dinner and the sunset.
