The most important celebration in this city, the Feast of Our Lady of Loreto, is held on September 8th in honor of its beloved patron saint. On that day, the effigy of Our Lady of Loreto is accompanied by pilgrims and novenas throughout the city, combining worship with a joyful, explosive celebration. Sports are an integral part of the festivities, and fishing tournaments and other activities are held throughout the region.

One of the Baja’s jewels is the Bahia de Loreto (Loreto Bay). Diving in these waters you’ll find an incredible panorama of the spectacular world under the sea. The best diving season in the waters of Baja California is February through April. This is when the humpback and sometimes even blue whales may be spotted.

When looking for a place to surf in Mexico, consider the Baja California peninsula. It is one of the best spots in the world to practice surfing because the environmental conditions allow the waves to reach the heights necessary for the sport. San Juanico Bay, located approximately 39 miles northeast of Loreto, is an ideal spot for surfing because of its high swells and good wind conditions.

One of Loreto’s most enduring attractions is the Sea of Cortez, providing maximum enjoyment of the beauty of its beaches.

New Things To Do

  • Aquariums

    Oceans cover 71% of the Earth’s surface, and we’ve only explored about 5% of it. That leaves so much of the Earth that we know nothing about. Not everyone can dive right into the water to look at the ocean life, so why not do the next best thing? Aquariums give us a window into a whole other world. Most locations around the world have aquariums; some larger than others.

  • Snowmobiling

    Snowmobiling began to take off in the 1950's as lightweight design emerged. At first, snowmobiling was a topic of dispute, because snowmobilers like to take advantage of the flexibility of their machines to travel off-road, thereby disrupting otherwise pristine environments. Others objected to snowmobilers because their machines were noisy and polluted the environment.
