La Paz Travel Guide
La Paz is the capital of the state of Baja California Sur, but it's smaller and more laid back than that would suggest. It lies far enough from Los Cabos (136 miles) that it remains peaceful, without the rowdy nightlife of Cabo San Lucas. Kayakers, divers, snorkelers, and sailors have long been drawn to La Paz and still are, with good reason. The waters around itand especially out into the protected areas of Isla Espiritu Santo are shallow and clear, and there are hundreds of coves and inlets where sea life and landscape defy description. For divers, the presence of impressive numbers of sharks, especially hammerheads, is enticing, as is the chance to dive or snorkel with whale sharks and giant mantas. And La Paz is an excellent base from which to see the gray whales that migrate to the Sea of Cortez each year to have their young. Not surprisingly, sportfishing is big, too.
