We started out on the impressive La Paz dock where there are huge yatchs that my kids (5 and 8) loved seeing up close. We drove out past the malecon and spotted a pod of dolphins (8ish) and I have never been as close to dolphins as I got then they were beautiful! We then boated past a colony of sea lions, blue footed boobies and giant crabs. The kids loved hearing Juan Carlos explain what these creatures were and facts about them and their habitats.

Our destination was a secluded cove where the sand was like silk and when we swam to some of the rockier areas, we could see fish and starfish of all types and colors up close. We stayed here for three hours swimming and having fun until we boated back to the dock under a beautiful la paz sunset.

I would greatly recommend this experience to all my friends and really felt safe and got my monies worth of value in terms of family experience.

  Really nice trip with tuna tuna. Bit expensive for backpackers, but definitely worth the money. Awesome guide and food
