LORETO

Loreto, known as the first capital of Baja California, is a historic and picturesque coastal town that embodies the authentic charm of Mexico. Founded in 1697 by Jesuit missionaries, it is home to the iconic Misión de Nuestra Señora de Loreto, the first mission in the Californias. Surrounded by the turquoise waters of the Sea of Cortez and the dramatic Sierra de la Giganta, Loreto offers a unique blend of history, nature, and adventure. Today, it is a designated "Pueblo Mágico" and a premier destination for eco-tourism, sport fishing, and exploration of the stunning Loreto Bay National Park, making it a hidden gem in Baja California Sur.
