The Sea of Cortez is known as the aquarium of the world (or the biggest aquarium of the world). The calm and crystal waters of the beaches in baja are a perfect spot for kayaking.
Kayaking in Baja has become more and more popular recently. The calm and sandy beaches around La Paz are just perfect for beginners and experts kayakers. The are great guided tours that show you everything, from how to paddle to the best spots in the area for this great sport.
The perfect kayaking vacation in Baja
I recommend to start your kayaking vacation in La Paz. There are many flights that can take you to La Paz flying from the States or Canada. Alternatively, you could fly to Los Cabos. It is a 2 hour drive from Los Cabos to La Paz and there are many taxis or buses connecting the Cabo area and La Paz. If you want to be free and explore many beaches, rent a car in Baja (if budget allows, I completely recommend this option). The possibilities are so great by renting a car if you like to explore baja by yourself.
There are several kayak companies you can go for in La Paz. I have rented kayaks and tours from a local kayak business called "Mar y Aventuras" (sea and adventures) which I think is great. They have accomodation, guided kayaking tours, snorkeling, fishing, whale watching tours. And the people are nice and great. I also have my own kayak but when I invite friends to visit Baja or in kayaking vacation and need more kayaks, I go there.
Accomodation: La Paz has great options for accomodation for all different budgets. You could go from a nice cosy hotel or posada to a really expensive, posh 5 star hotel (that are not that expensive really). It is also worth checking for vacation package deals including plane tickets and hotel. A great deal and good start for your kayaking experience!
