The heat of the Baja sun presses down as you step onto the sun-bleached rocks that guard one of Mexico’s lesser-known coastal treasures. The Sea of Cortez sprawls beneath a steel-blue sky, daring you to dive beneath its surface and meet the hidden world riffling just below the waves. This is no ordinary beach day—here, crowds fade to memory. Your path takes you along a narrow rocky trail, skirting the more crowded Chileno Beach to something quieter, a small stretch of sand cradled by jagged rock and shimmering water.
