Mulege, Baja California Sur, Mexico is an amazing natural paradise. Looking forward to my next visit.

Stunning old church. Be sure to take the stairway to the top for an amazing view of the river. The town of Mulegé is a lovely desert oasis not to be missed

what a beautiful historic missionary it was founded in 1701 but built and 17 35 I think you could just feel the souls that wandered all around through there what an awesome experience and what a wonderful View

It's a simple yet beautiful old mission that's worth walking to from town. You can cross a pedestrian bridge/dam and walk up beautiful trails to the mission. It's only 10 min from the bus stop when walking. A nice lady let us into the dormitory of the mission and up onto the roof (through some tunnels full of bird poop). The view from the roof was astounding.

Interesting stop, definitely worth a visit if time allows.

Absolutely the most beautiful view of nature I have ever seen in my entire life!

Really pretty church ⛪️ . Nice little walk up some steps to see the view too.

Interesting church supposedly designed by Eiffel, Sat. Rosalia, BCS, México.

Driving through Mexico on a cross continent motorbike trip and had to stop and see the famous church built by Eifel. It is an interesting stop as most churches around here are the old brick a mortar style. This Church reminds me of a quansent like we would in Canada as a shop, it has steel frame, and steel walls. It's definitely worth stopping and taking a look at it, and the story behind it is pretty cool

An amazing piece of North American history. Erected in 1887 after first being assembled next to the Eiffel Tower, her big brother. Hint: Eiffel designed and built this church.

Interesting history, who could imagine that in this small town you would find that this church was prefabricated and shipped to Mexico from France and designed by Eiffel!

A neat little history to complement the unusual construction of this church.

This is a great place for a quick stop, I visited in July and it was extremely humid and hot.

This is a great stop. Designed by Eiffel and shown at the Paris exposition, this modular church was packed up and shipped by a French moving company to Santa Rosalia. It was reassembled there and has served as the city's church since then. Bolted together like an erector set, the church still manages a gravel shape.

Stunning experience and a truly impressive operation. Don’t think twice to do this trip with these guys. We just visited with 6 family in 3 generations, age 13 to 80’s. None of us can think of a single thing that could have been better. The whale watching was the focus and incredible- we interacted closely with whales every single day. Boat drivers and guides mean everything, and these are so skilled. And the camp experience, from cozy cabins and daily happy hours to hot showers and local simple delicious food, fit the vibe perfectly. The camp staff are local and quick to laugh, most are family, and they clearly love making things great for their clients. Our group has done a lot of traveling and we’ve seen lots of whales. This still blew our minds. Go.

If you want an incredible up close experience with the grey whales who come to San Ignacio Bay to have their calves, and then raise them until they are strong enough to make the journey northward back to the Bering Strait or other colder water, come to this rustic camp along the shore of the Bay. The accommodations are very simple, and the food is far from gourmet, but the experience and the quality, passion and heart of the people who work here is outstanding. You will see whales, touch whales, even perhaps (as I did) kiss whales. The mothers seem to want to push their babies over to you, perhaps to socialize them. We found that children's voices and laughter drew them to our boat more than any other sound, including various types of music we played and cooing and other sounds we made. You feel so close to these animals here, and you learn about them, their habits and habitats, and what their life has been over the centuries, and the way human beings have treated them. It's a fascinating experience and a privilege to enjoy it, even once.

Watching gray whales play around the boat is some of the most amazing wild animal encounters I've ever had. Baja Ecotours made that experience even more enjoyable. The guides were very knowledgeable and helpful. They were very respectful of the whales personal space and let the whales approach on their terms. The food was top notch. I really enjoyed the whole experience.

The most incredible experience I've ever had, an incredibly beautiful and remote place, where the connection with nature and other people is impossible not to happen. It is not only amazing to the eye and the senses, but it is also a place to learn about our world. Being in contact with such beautiful animals in their habitat is simply magnificent.

The only place to go if you're going to do eco-friendly whale watching and expereince all that nature shows us. Incredible people, incredible facility we simply had a wonderful time.

It has been 19 years since my husband and I had an adventure of a lifetime. The thrill of petting a whale has to be an experience not to be forgotten. Camp was comfortable and food great. Wish I was 19 years younger and I would go again!

We used Baja Ecotours to swim with sea lions and see the grey whales feeding and courting near Magdalena Is. Both were incredible biological events. A great bonus is all the fish in addition to the sea lions. At times you are swimming in huge schools of them and there is a great diversity of them as well. We went to their brand new whale trip out of a small fishing village and saw the whales doing it all - spy hopping(right beside the boat), breaching, feeding, right beside the boat, under the boat& more. The company is very professional and gave a discount when they had an engine problem on the way back. Our guides were exceptional- very well informed and talkative. Both trips were very educational.

Amazing place to see whales and dolphins

San Ignacio Lagoon is one of the last undeveloped gray whale birthing sites on the planet and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In addition to its pristine condition this unique area sustains an exceptional diversity of both marine & terrestrial species. Baja Expeditions has demonstrated its unwavering commitment to conservation and responsible tourism. The gray whale watching season is short and experiencing it while being well taken care of at their waterfront Eco Camp is a priceless adventure.

We camped at Antonio's and Paola the host was wonderful. Clean bathrooms and showers.

A small oasis like a joint in the long arm of Baja. Very recomendable strategic and quieto. Out of the term evolution. The second área for whale watch. And an interesting place to ask for kalilocos.

Beautiful place to be and it is wonderful to see the Baja Whales. you get to pet them and get to whale watch, it's really wonderful place to be

Missed the fish

It is essential to stop and try to go back in time to get an idea... (Original) Es asombroso imaginarse la fundación por los jesuitas de esta misión aislada en el desierto .

(Translated by Google) The Mission of San Ignacio de Kadá-Kaamán, an oasis in the middle of the Baja California Sur desert, is a testimony of the encounter between two cultures: the Spanish and the Cochimí. Founded in 1728 by the Jesuits, this majestic volcanic stone construction has stood the test of time and has become one of the greatest exponents of missionary architecture in Mexico. The Jesuits, with their tireless evangelizing work, not only built a church, but also established a community life center where the Cochimí indigenous people learned new agricultural techniques, trades and customs. The mission became a milestone on the path of evangelization, and its influence spread throughout the region. Today, Mission San Ignacio is a tourist destination that attracts visitors from all over the world. Its imposing stone walls, its golden altar and its frescoed murals tell the story of a past full of faith and perseverance. In addition to exploring the mission, tourists can enjoy activities such as hiking in the surrounding area, bird watching, and visiting local communities. The conservation of the San Ignacio Mission is a constant challenge. However, thanks to the efforts of government institutions, civil organizations and local communities, important restoration and maintenance work has been carried out. The goal is to ensure that this historical legacy endures for future generations.

Hoy en día, la Misión de San Ignacio es un destino turístico que atrae a visitantes de todo el mundo. Sus imponentes muros de piedra, su altar de oro y sus frescos murales cuentan la historia de un pasado lleno de fe y perseverancia. Además de explorar la misión, los turistas pueden disfrutar de actividades como caminatas por los alrededores, observación de aves y visitas a las comunidades locales. La conservación de la Misión de San Ignacio es un desafío constante. Sin embargo, gracias a los esfuerzos de instituciones gubernamentales, organizaciones civiles y comunidades locales, se han llevado a cabo importantes trabajos de restauración y mantenimiento. La meta es garantizar que este legado histórico perdure para las futuras generaciones.

Whether you go bird watching at the bird sanctuary, or visit the pronghorn reserve which has an excellent museum, or walk the dunes solitude, you're in for a treat.

Bring binoculars and this will be a special bird safari. You can drive all the way out to the coast and the road is surrounded by marshland where you can watch the birds in their habitats. You will even see ospreys!

Great views, we saw several pairs of ospreys, on pair had 2-4 chicks in the nest.

Beautiful country with sweeping views and ancient cave paintings

Free, with information about certain species posted. I'm sure different times of the year there are more varieties than we saw.

Like most of Baja, it's stark, desolate and beautiful. It feels like high desert in the western US but with much more diverse and interesting vegetation. If you catch it after a big rain it will be even better. However, extremely heavy fog is common here, so it's never too dry and brown. Unfortunately, like all of Baja and all of Mexico, there is trash everywhere. It is almost always very windy and litter travels fast. The Mexican cultural attitude toward littering is gross and must change. Throwing trash out the car window and dumping garbage in random places needs to be culturally stigmatized by Mexicans if this problem will ever be solved. Laws are irrelevant because enforcement is impossible. The attitude must change.

You have to love the desert but this is not the desert that you might think or see on TV. Bleak, a lot of salt, very little vegetation. If you are very,very lucky, you might see one of the endangered antilope. In the nearby sea, go in the Spring to see the whales and their babies. Spectacular and you will never forget it!

A Once-in-a-Lifetime Adventure – Whales, Salt Flats & Unforgettable Moments! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐" This experience is beyond extraordinary! It starts with a fascinating whale museum, where the explanations are engaging and eye-opening. Then, Mario’s incredible family team ensures everything runs smoothly with top-notch service and great recommendations. But the real magic? Getting up close with whales, dolphins, and seals in their natural habitat—an energy like nothing you've ever felt before! And for just 900 pesos, you get a boat expedition, a delicious lunch, and a front-row seat to nature’s most breathtaking show. To top it off, the adventure continues at the stunning salt flats, where you can capture jaw-dropping, one-of-a-kind photos that look straight out of a dream. If you're anywhere near this place, DO NOT miss this! It’s not just a tour—it’s a life-changing experience.

Located on main highway 1, a few minutes out of town. Plenty of parking, bar, restaurant, toilets & souvenirs. Didn't eat but reportedly good food. Staff respectful and attentive in tours. I had difficulty understanding the English but that was me. See the separate salt Exportadora (salt ponds and processing) only on low wind days. Operations stop when windy and you will see everything again if you do the whale watching tour.

We had an amazing whale watching adventure with Mario's tours going out on two separate days for gray whale watching. Their museum is a lovely introduction to what you're going to see and their briefing is thorough and informative. I appreciate that they don't chase the whales and they let the whales come to the boat. I also liked the stop at the giant salt pile on the way out.

I had a wonderful experience with this company. Went on a whale watch two times and both were very different. One ride cost $50, you jump in a boat of 12 passengers. It’s not ideal to have some freedom running from side to side of a boat, but you see and touch plenty! Our first day the water was flat and whales were very interactive. Two or three at the time. Second day the water was rough and because of it whales were not very communicative, yet still had luck to see and pet them. I made an appointment over WhatsApp (contact is on the website). They responded relatively fast. Hat, gloves, sunscreen, glasses must have. They will give you a waterproof poncho if needed (when the water is rough take it!). If you are camping or RV, they have a space for you too!

This is the 3rd time booking with Mario's Tours and without a doubt they have always come through. Our captain was Tito and did an exceptional job putting us on whales. We took our daughter in confidence of seeing and petting whales and Mario's did exactly that!! Thank you for making to some a "once in a lifetime " experience happen. We would highly recommend using Mario's for your visit to Guerro Negro. A bonus was the stop at the Salt mine. That in itself is a very cool experience. We have gone to San Ignacio is search of whales and were able to "see" them however, the crew at Mario's will make dreams come true!! MARIO'S FOR THE WIN!!

this tour was everything we had hoped it would be. we spent lots of time out on the water and when we finally had our encounter with the whales coming right up to the boat, it seemed to last for so long! dream come true. I will warn that if you are like me and you get sea sick, one dose of bonine or whatever you take for it may not be enough. Take extra with you to take another dose during the tour. This region gets very windy, which makes the water extremely choppy. it’s sooooooo worth it, though!

There is no whale tour like this anywhere. The only gales come to your boat like dogs to be petted. They glitchy to get to the boat. The pictures are real, you will pet a whale on this trip. Day starts with a quick classroom overview, 10 minute drive to the boat, 3 hours on the boat with whales, lunch is also provided. Staff are extremely professional and friendly. Could Not recommend this more highly!! We drove from San Diego and the drive was so worth it.

First time whale watching and was amazed at what we saw and experienced. Could not give a higher rating than 5-stars but would if we could. From beginning to end, a very memorable day!

The overall experience was FANTASTIC. After a brief introductory presentation, we were driven to the lagoon in a van where our boat was waiting for us. Our boat skipper knew just where to go and sure enough, after a short wait a mother and calf approached our boat and interacted with our group for 15-20 minutes. I was at first skeptical about the company as they didn't have as many reviews, but be guaranteed, they are a great outfit!

Incredible! We had looked at a few tour companies but Laguna was the one that sticked out. Friendly, professional, easy going staff! Our captain for the day was amazing too, we got close enough to the whales not to disturb them but the whales just came to us! 4 whales spent 40 min playing with our boat and hanging around us. Priceless experience. Tip your captain 🙏🏼

Phenomenal team and worth every dollar and more. Highly recommend this company

Had an incredible experience with this company: professional, nice, and affordable. Our captain was incredibly skilled and respectful of the whales, he knew how to navigate to allow the whales to approach us.

An excellent job by all. Exceeded our expectations. Up close and personal with so many whales we lost count.

(Translated by Google) Excellent service! Our guide was very nice and explained everything to us very well. The person who took us on the boat did everything possible so that we could see whales and touch them. He even dedicated a lot more time to us. We were able to see dolphins and sea lions. I highly recommend it but do the tour early in the morning at 8 am at that time there are not so many tourists and the weather is pleasant. If you get dizzy, bring dramamine. The tour includes lunch. (Original) Excelente servicio! Nuestro guía fue muy agradable y nos explicó todo muy bien. La persona que nos llevó en la lancha hizo hasta lo imposible porque pudiéramos ver ballenas y tocarlas. Incluso nos dedicó mucho más tiempo. Pudimos ver delfines y lobos marinos. Lo recomiendo ampliamente pero hagan el tour en la mañana temprano 8 am a esa hora no hay tantos turistas y el clima es agradable. Si te mareas lleva dramamine. El recorrido incluye lunch.

(Translated by Google) Many curiosities (Original) Muchas curiosidades

We spent two nights there with our RV. This is a really nice spot, a bit windy sometimes. Watch out where you park we have seen people getting stranded with their cars. The only bad point would be the garbage! People are coming to party on weekends or semana santa and they left so many garbage behind it’s such a shame for such a beautiful place.

Remarkable, beautiful place. Seemingly endless white sand dunes stretch to the horizon. There are many places to park for the night, and turnoffs from Highway 1, but be careful to look for deep sand, as you could get stuck.

Very cool place , worth a visit to walk thru the dunes. 4 wheel drive not required

I didn't go wingfoiling at this spot but there was one person wingfoiling. It's a long walk thru the dunes before you get to a spot where the water is deep enough. Congrats to the sailor that was out there, and the wind got nuclear that afternoon, well over 30 knots. Definitely a wingfoiling spot awaiting to be discovered!

Beautiful dunes, very expansive; not as high as some of the dunes we've visited in the United States but still definitely worth a visit and some exploration.

Amazing landscape reminiscent of White Sands in New Mexico! Access is from the south along the airport road, 2wd low clearance vehicle can easily get within short walking distance of the dunes

Great boondocking secluded spot.

Such an amazing park! Stunning views and excellent campgrounds. Not too crowded and not too built up. You really feel like you're out there. Bring everything you need there are no stores to buy anything for nearly an hour before you get into the park!

Love the place.. Just make sure you take everything you need, including water. No stores, or gasoline anywhere near (50 miles to the nearest gasoline station)

So glad we made the drive! They are doing some AMAZING work along with many international groups to restore the California Condor! Can't wait to go back and explore more do some camping!

Long drive but well worth it!!! We camped and hiked up to Altar Viewing Point the next day. Saw coyotes, condors, cows and more. Will be coming back!

Had an absolute blast when we visited. The hiking was fantastic and Mirador El Altar was my favorite.

There are specific zones to camping, a beautiful place where to escape. The bad side is that there isn't any kind of communication; no signal in phones or data.

Great place to camp. Some spots have their own grill, tables and portable restroom.

Amazing gardens, host was so good to me as I cycle down Baja. The knowledge of plants was phenomenal and I am so greatful for the hospitality.

Quite normal, very small, some information but not very much. I would not call this garden...

Excellent place slow service

wonderful and informative
