Starting to plan out a 4 day boating trip in Baja Sur


Very preliminary. Thinking about leaving from Puerto Escondido.

Go down to Agua Verde. Hang out for a while and then land in Puerto Gato for the night. Camp on the beach.

Next day, check out Los Burros, and the arches on the far NW side of Isla San Jose. Go through the mangroves. Spend the night in the bay on Isla San Francisco.

Head back up to Loreto from there.

Anyone have suggestions of spots, must sees/must do's, to add? Time frame is April. Would go longer, but the wife will be on this trip and a couple days camping is the most I'm gonna be able to get her to sign up for.

If the wife doesn’t like camping, perhaps you are just a bad camp leader, eh? Perhaps Take a bigger boat, so you’re not camping in flies and fish guts on a windy beach, but living in style with ac, heat, hot water and sanitation :light:

White line is the general trek, roughly 180 miles round trip.

Did this route from Loreto 25 years ago.... we gassed up in La Paz and continued to Cabo. Around Los Burros on your map (los dolores on the nautical map I used in 95) …. there was a very cool seasonal fish camp, with a very large lodge style building. sleeping quarters... kitchen... main room. we saw the building from off shore... anchored and walked around for a while....pretty cool.
I think you've been to casa grande at timbabichi… if not definitely walk up there.
I may do it again when the water temps come back up (sept, oct)..

Is gas pretty easy to score in Evaristo

Have done that stretch 3 times and you are hitting most of the great spots. The small island just north of I San Francisquita should be visited, just watch the reefs. Not certain about the availability of fuel. AShould be an amazing trip.
