A low sun slants across white sand as a line of camels pads the Pacific edge of Baja California Sur, the surf hissing like an invitation. Riders settle into simple saddles, the animals' slow, rocking gait setting a pace measured by sea spray and gull calls. The beach opens into broad sky; volcanic bluffs frame the horizon and coastal scrub scents the air.
