Favorite Baja Snorkeling Spots?


So far my favorite is the reef in front of Rancho Leonero on the East Cape but I'm always open to suggestions......
Where's your favorite place to snorkel in Baja?
No tank dive spots please.

I like to snorkel south of Cabo Pulmo in Los Frailles around the point between the two.
Santa Maria is my favorite place here in Los Cabos. Take one of the cats and hang out in the bay and snorkel. Nice day.

Does the cat require a special snorkel and mask?

Interested in hearing about some of the places though. Have done some sailing up into the Sea and along the Mainland and haven't found many great snorkeling spots yet.




I think the world is run by C- students.

Judy, where do you buy the tiny masks and fins for them, and aren't they afraid of the water:?:

Oops!! I should have read on before becoming so finger happy! BMG, you read that as I did.

Capt. Mike, the Twin Dolphin is gone. It has been scraped to the ground to make room for ????. It will be much more difficult to enjoy the day at Santa Maria when this project is online.
As for Chileno's - anyone notice what they are doing with the hwy? The Chileno Bay people don't like where it is so they're pushing it inland 1/4 to 1/2 mile - essentially to the extreme edge of their property boundary. That way, the existing real estate won't have that "otre lade" stigma attached to it - reduces property values don't ya know?




Whoa there, Cowboy - pull back on those reins!
