Jacques Cousteau once called the Sea of Cortez the
“world’s aquarium” because of the abundance and diversity of its marine life. Underwater, you’re likely to meet up with whales, marlin, swordfish, tuna, giant manta rays,
sharks, dolphins, sea lions, turtles, eels and a
thousand other species including the biggest fish in the world, the whale shark. A number of reputable dive
operators are waiting to get you out there for an
experience of a lifetime.

WATERSPORTS
For non-divers, La Paz offers many other opportunities to enjoy its beautiful bays. Snorkeling and kayaking are both popular activities in the area.
