San Carlos, Mexico Adventure travel Vacation

  Mexico

• Pacific Coast: 
San Carlos

Description: World renowned for its myriad of underwater life, the Sea of Cortez is considered one of the eight best dive locations in the world. San Carlos is a quaint seaside town (with great seafood cuisine) and comfortable resorts adjacent to its picturesque harbor hemmed in by soaring rock cliffs.

The Sea of Cortez is a vast marine menagerie. You will see rowdy sea lions, playful dolphins, breaching whales, seahorses, bright nudibranches and vivid angelfish. Besides diving and snorkeling, there is horseback riding, sunset cruises, tennis, kayaking, shopping and more, something for everyone.

Only 250 miles from the U.S. Mexico border, San Carlos has become a top destination for travelers seeking the splendors and unique character of the central Gulf of Mexico. Boasting a level of species diversity similar to the Bahamas, and only truly exceeded by that of the Red Sea, the Sea of Cortez is an exceptional location for our ecotour oriented adventures. During our 5 day packages, you will experience the best of the area with our experienced and knowledgeable guides.

Highlights: This wonderful tour will introduce you to the truly rich marine life, Mexican culture of the central Gulf of Mexico and interesting historical landmarks. There are strenuous efforts by the U.S. and Mexican governments to preserve the pristine nature of the Sea of Cortez with the encroachment of tourists and increased pressure from the fishing industry. You will see first hand the results of these efforts to sustain the balance between man and nature.
