Isla Espiritu Santo, or Holy Spirit Island, if you get certified for scuba diving here, you’ll do you last day here.

Playa Balandra

Drone shot of downtown La Paz. The water is extremely calm here, because we’re tucked into a double bay off the Sea of Cortez, or now Gulf of California, which is itself pretty calm. It’s a great place to bring kids because the water is so calm and the beaches slope so gently into the water, you can walk out really far in a lot of places. And it’s a good deal safer than most of Mexico. At any rate, I was going to say that the water is still at the same level, and it comes right up to the main road. More or less unchanged for 500 years.
