The Diving: The dives will be in parts of Loreto National Marine Park. This great 100-mile long stretch of sea that hugs
Baja's peninsula in the Sea of Cortez, is refuge to a diversity of marine life and home to over 800 species of fish,
unique only to the Sea of Cortez, including this exceedingly cute Barnacle Blenny whose head is half the size of a dime!  It's not uncommon to jump into the open blue to snorkel with
passing whales while on your way out to the dive site. The Sea of Cortez has long been known for its schools of dolphins,
whale pods, sea turtles and sea lion harems, and of course,
there is always the chance of meeting with the giant manta rays, hammerhead sharks and seasonal whale sharks. Brilliantly
colored sea fans, black coral and invertebrate life blanket the rocky structures and at night the reefs open up into a rainbow
of color. The diving terrain consists
of rocky bottoms, jutting walls, undercuts, overhangs, sprawling reef systems and several wreck sites. Visibility
is expected to be 50 - 120 feet. Water temperature is expected to be ~80. Trip Presentation:

About Loreto: Loreto is as
Cabo used to be, before the huge influx of tourists. It is peaceful, serene and warm.
Nestled along the Sea of Cortez, it is fast becoming one of Baja's more desired dive destinations. The marine
park with its islands that sit offshore offer much diversity in the diving and snorkeling.
The white sand beaches of the islands and the long stretches of coastline outside of
Loreto are great for hikes, picnics and clambakes, and don't forget the spectacular
sunrises and sunsets that light up the islands and Sierra Giganta Mountains Trip Cost Includes:
