This 5-hour experience begins in Pichilingue, where your certified naturalist guide welcomes you aboard a vessel suited for coastal and offshore navigation. You'll first visit San Rafaelito, home to a colony of California sea lions. From September to May, snorkeling is allowed in its reef—gear is provided, and safety is prioritized. (Swimming is restricted from June to August during the breeding season.) The tour continues to Bahía de Balandra, known for its shallow turquoise waters and desert landscapes. Here, you'll hike along rocky viewpoints, observe native marine and terrestrial wildlife, and enjoy time to swim or relax on the beach. A freshly prepared lunch is served at the shore, featuring local dishes such as seafood, burritos, fruit, and cold drinks. Throughout the tour, your guide offers insights into the region’s ecosystems, geology, and biodiversity. Return to Pichilingue in the early afternoon.
