BALANDRA

T
      he peninsula Baja California
      Sur has a semi-desert climate
      offering remoteness and vir-
gin beaches, like Balandra. Playa
Balandra is considered to be Mexi-
co’s most beautiful beach. It consists
of a small bay with very calm waters
surrounded by hills of reddish rocks.
You can relax in transparent waters
surrounded by white sands and the
climate is great for swimming all
year round. For more than ten years,
Playa Balandra has been a protect-
ed natural area, keeping hotels and
crowds away from its crystal clear
water.

         Located a twenty minutes
drive outside of the town La Paz it’s
a perfect day trip destination from
there. As with many touristy sites
it’s best to get there in the morning.   •   Hat                                   it can get a bit crowded in the after-   Enjoy the sun
