The Most Photographed
Beach in Mexico.
Most visitors drive to Balandra, park, and take in the view from the same overlook. Same photo, same quick stop, then back on the road. You'll arrive by water instead, aboard our small-group boat — hours here, not minutes. See El Hongo from the side they don't show in the brochures, and swim in turquoise so still it doesn't look real.
El Hongo — The Mushroom Rock
The most iconic natural formation in La Paz. A perfectly balanced volcanic rock rising from the shallows — impossible not to photograph.
Sea Lions & Blue-footed Boobies
You'll snorkel with a colony of Sea Lions at San Rafaelito along the way — playful, curious, and completely at home in these waters. Keep an eye out for Blue-footed Boobies too — their brilliant blue feet and diving displays never get old.
Protected National Park
Balandra Bay sits 23 km north of La Paz and is a protected natural area, with no development on the beach.
