Comments Leon and Noellia Fisman's Baja Outpost is their vision realized for people enjoying nature, up close and personal. Baja Outpost offers diving, kayaking and horseback riding treks into the mountains around Loreto. Noellia's meals were 5 star. Guests are made to feel part of the family as we all come together under the palapa dining room. Each quest palapa is deluxe and include private baths, hot showers and A/C.

The boat captains know just where to go and have a knack for engaging with the playful dolphins in the area. The dive master was flexible and allowed for our greater dive experience. Per Leon, the best season for diving is coming up over the summer and into Septemnber. They also have whale watching expeditons December thru March. You won't be sorry if you go. Loreto is a great town, yet to be discovered.
