The Pacific wind hits first — salt and sun sharpening the horizon — as a line of camels steps down toward a quiet stretch of Baja shoreline. Riders settle into rhythmic sway while surf hisses at the sand; behind them, low desert plants like cardón and cholla scatter across ribs of volcanic and alluvial soils. This two-and-a-half-hour outing combines a gentle beach trek on domesticated camels with a short interpretive hike through an ecological reserve, plus a taco lunch and a short tequila tasting.
