island permits?


I have a question about obtaining permits to visit and camp on islands in the Sea of Cortez.

In the past I have purchased permits in Bahia de los Angeles to visit the islands there.

But for, examples sake, where would I get a permit to visit any of Islas Encantadas or other islands that are not near Loreto, Bahia Kino, or Bahia de los Angeles where I know there are offices to get the permits? Also, what Mexican agency is responsible for providing the permits?

Thanks! :?::?:

Regarding permits to visit and camp on islands in the Sea of Cortez, this is what I found out: All the islands in the Sea of Cortez are protected as World Heritage Sites and as such visitors to the islands should obtain permits from the Comisión Nacional de Áreas Naturales Protegidas (CONANP) office in La Paz, Baja California Sur (See below). In addition, I know you can get island permits at the office in Bahia de los Angeles and I’ve heard there is an office in Loreto and on the Sonoran side of the Sea in Bahia Kino – can anyone confirm this? Happy travels!
