Baja California Sur Unmissables

Baja California Sur spans the southern half of the peninsula, where the Sierra de la Laguna mountains meet the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific Ocean. The region features the UNESCO-listed rock paintings of Sierra de San Francisco and historic Jesuit missions like San José del Cabo. Coastal highlights include Cabo Pulmo National Park, home to one of the oldest living coral reefs in North America, and the iconic granite Arch of Cabo San Lucas. Shallow, turquoise bays like Balandra and Tecolote offer distinct geological formations and diverse marine ecosystems.
