A marvellous circumnavigation of Espiritu Santo! Everything was exceptional. Guide Paty and Mario were competent, organised and loads of fun to boot. They cooked absolutely amazing meals, led us to exquisite campsites, and taught us much about Baja geography and culture. They worked like a well oiled wheel, always attentive to our needs and interests. Can't say enough about BOA's... More

8 day trip, paddled 150 km on the Sea of Cortez. The sky was a perfect blue every day, the view was spectacular, the food was amazing, mostly fresh fish caught by locale fisherman or members of our group. We slept under the starts at night, lived outside for 8 days. Our guide, Rafael and our two cooks, Alvero and... More

Our family of 4 rang in the New Year by completing a week-long circum-navigation of Isla Espiritu Santo with our two guides and five fellow paddlers. We took the cooperatively catered (i.e. haul your gear and help cook) trip. My husband and I were hugely impressed with our guides' attention to detail, from lessons on managing the gear to setting... More

My buddy and I did a 4 day trip from January 1-4 through BOA and it was absolutely amazing. Our guide, Mario, was an awesome host and really knew all about the island, geology, and wildlife. We were treated to some of the best meals of my life, courtesy of Alvaro, our cook and captain. I am not an experienced... More

I have done the self supported Isla Espiritu Santu trip in both November 2009 and 2010. Memories of these trips have both kept me going through the long dark winter, remembering warm sea water, snorkelling, paddling and best of all, swimming with sea lions! I don't think that I can make it through another year without going again. I really... More

I booked this trip through Black Feather tours in Canada who work in tandem with BOA. We couldn't have been more please/relaxed/and energized all at the same time. Our guide Christian and our Captain/cook Manuelito were top notch in everything they presented us with. We paddled for 4 days, camped nights on the most beautiful beaches and enjoyed 3 outstanding...

If you like kayaking, snorkeling and beach camping, this is the trip for you. I spent 7 days on a fully-catered, motor-skiff assisted circumnavigation of Island Espiritu Santo over the Christmas holiday. The island is spectacular and pristine with turquoise waters teeming with colorful fish. Our lead guide, Christian, was professional, capable, knowledgeable, and fun to be around; our cook,... More

We went ATV riding on Migrino Beach in Dec 2009. Rene was our tour guide. He was the nicest, most responsible, yet fun and helpful tour guide. Besides Rene, there were 3 women in our group and 1 man, my husband. Rene was so patient with all the women and so encouraging. The paths are all safe but some are... More

My wife and I spent a week with BOA and their team on a sea kayak circumnavigation of Isla Espiritu Santu in the bay of La Paz back in November 09. We had 2 guides, Leah and Tulio who were fantastic fun to be with and kept us safe on the water and entertained every night with many strange beach... More
