Parque Nacional Bahía de los Ángeles Adventures

Parque Nacional Bahía de los Ángeles is located on the eastern coast of the Baja California Peninsula along the Sea of Cortez (Gulf of California). Established in 2007, the park conserves both terrestrial desert habitats and important marine environments, encompassing coastal cliffs, islands, and underwater ecosystems. The area is characterized by a unique blend of xeric desert flora, including rare cacti species, and marine life such as whale sharks, sea lions, rays, and an abundance of fish species. Historically, the bay was a traditional fishing area for indigenous peoples and later became popular among eco-tourists and conservationists. Visitors flock to the park not only to enjoy its pristine beaches but also to engage in outdoor activities like kayaking, paddleboarding, fly fishing, diving, and hiking in nearby desert trails. Iconic landmarks include the Bahia itself, numerous small islands such as Isla Ángel de la Guarda visible offshore, and the dramatic desert-marine interface that offers spectacular photo opportunities. Its relatively remote location ensures low visitor density, appealing to nature lovers looking to experience untouched natural beauty and exceptional wildlife encounters. The park plays a critical role in protecting the fragile desert and marine ecosystems in this region of Baja California, contributing to global biodiversity preservation. The area’s warm climate makes it a year-round destination, but spring and fall are prime seasons when temperatures are pleasant and water visibility is optimal for underwater exploration.
