About Loreto
Located on the east coast of the Baja Pennisula, approximately 700 miles south of the US/Mexico border and facing the Sea of Crotez , the historic town of Loreto is the oldest town in Baja California, founded in 1697 by the Jesuits.
Surrounded by incomparable scenery of the magnificent Sierra de la Giganta mountain range, the awesome desert and the azure Sea of Cortez.
With a population of 20,000, Loreto faces wonderful islands such as the Coronados with its turquoise waters and sea lion colonies; Isla Carmen with its beautiful beaches and coves; the Danzantes with its rocky edges and small coves, a paradise for scuba diving; and Catalina , a favorite of the ecologist with its unique flora and fauna.
The waters off the islands offer great sportfishing with an abundance of fish like yellowtail, sailfish, dorado, marlin, wahoo and roosterfish.
Sportfishing has made Loreto famous and is one of its main tourist activities. Likewise, great schools of frolicking dolphins can be observed and with any luck, one might see the blue whale, the biggest animal on the planet. Recently a wide area of the Sea of Cortez in front of Loreto was declared a Nation Marine Park by the Mexican government thus preserving the pristine waters here.
With year round temperatures averaging in the 80's, outdoor activities are always available. Try sailing, kayaking, diving, horseback riding, mountain biking and beachcombing or take a tour to the beautifully restored Mission of San Javier high up in the mountains behind Loreto.
With daily scheduled air service from Los Angeles and San Diego, it's becoming a popular playground and home to many Americans and Canadians.
