A Short Loreto Adventure Tourism Video

Nicely done!

Hopefully, Doug will imbed this, so it shows properly.

Nice! A lot of beautiful images of a beautiful area.

My $.02 input is that for me, and perhaps most other older eyes and brains, I would prefer slightly fewer images in favor of seeing each one a little bit longer. The "strobe" effect of so many, so fast, was a little distracting.
Perhaps it's directed at brains more used to video game speeds?!
If so, consider that they may have the money someday, but they don't have it yet.
Heading south on Monday, and looking forward to spending several days in Loreto.
Can't wait!!

I think you might not understand just how much cash video games make.
MM3 just came out a few months ago... over 500 millon in 4 days. lol.
ya, more than any movie ever made. google it.
guess who is making these games??? kids and young men 18- 35

that said, I also think it was too fast...

Oh yes, I know that the games make a ton of money, heck, even a popular phone app can make a fortune!

And I also know that the new wave of moguls are a bunch of kids in skater clothes, but those guys aren't interested in taking a modest vacation in Loreto, doing a little kayaking and laying on a beach. At least I don't think that they are.

Look at the demographics of the Baby Boomers, who are retiring at a rate of something over 100,000 per day. We are in better health at our age than any other generation in history, we have lived adventurous lives and don't want to stop having adventures just because we're graying. At the same time, most of us have lost most of our retirement equity in the course of the last few years.
So, offer us an adventure, at a reasonable price, and we'll go for it.
IMHO, that is the market that most of Baja should be courting.
When I retire, which will be years later than I had hoped for, I will have virtually nothing but enough to buy a small casa, and to put some cash back to suppliment whatever remains of my SS account.
If that exists, and does so among a loose scattered group of fellow travelers, then show me THAT, and I'm ready to send off a deposit.
And, I think that much of that was in the Loreto video, but I'm not sure because of my slow mental refresh rate

Think of this as a tv commercial, guys, I imagine that is why it was produced in the first place.

We're a "pueblo magico" now, so Federal funding probably filtered down to the Secretaria de Tourismo Baja Sur to make it.

Personally, I love it!

I'm sending it to as many friends as I can.....we need more tourists here in Loreto.

Lots of the beach shots are of ensenada blanca and the water out front . The couple in the clip were wearing yellow wrist bans . Must be staying at the hotel there .

My place is about a 1/2 mile away with a big hill between us .
