The engine kicks and the desert answers: wind-swept sand sprays across the trail as you crest a dune and the Pacific opens up in a slab of blue below.

History
The southern Baja coast was inhabited by maritime hunter-gatherer groups and later became a string of fishing camps and ranches; modern tourism arrived in the mid-20th century, shaping much of the corridor you ride today.
Conservation
Stick to designated trails to protect fragile desert soils and coastal dune plants; operators often brief riders on avoiding sensitive areas and minimizing noise near nesting shorebirds.
