Private Trip Espiritu Santo Island

This is a private boat trip to Espiritu Santo Island, in the Sea of Cortez off La Paz, in Baja California Sur, listed at 420 minutes. Because your group is the only one on board, the day can be shaped around what you want to do rather than around a shared schedule.

The operator offers the trip so that families and groups of friends can spend time together. With a private boat, the listing says, you can spend more time on the activities of your choice, and food, equipment and special requirements can be personalized. The listing does not give a fixed route, so ask about stops and activities when you book.

The boats are described as nice, comfortable and in very good shape. The crew members are mainly marine biologists, which should make the trip more informative for those who like to learn about the place as they go.

The trip is listed as suitable for all physical fitness levels. It is not recommended for pregnant travelers. Infants are required to sit on an adult's lap, and public transportation options are available nearby.

Included are lunch, bottled water, carbonated beverages, snacks, a wetsuit and snorkel gear. Gratuities and towels are not included, so bring your own towel. The listing does not list a meeting point, so ask for it when you reserve.
