LA PAZ
|
|
ISLA TODOS SANTOS
|
|
|
Sunsets in this city are famous for their splendor.
But this is not the only thing that La Paz has to
offer; its pier is ideal for strolling around and
eating extremely fresh fish tacos, and its beaches,
especially Pichilingüe north of the city, are not only
extremely beautiful because they are low and peaceful,
but they’re also ideal for a swim. From here, you can
take boats to go swimming with sea lions and search
for whales.

|
Actually, this is not one but two small islands. It is
the perfect place for a one-day round-trip escape. For
those who love surfing, this is the perfect spot for
the sport, since the island is famous for having the
highest waves on this coast. Simply contemplating its
impressive waves is worth a visit to the island, but
you can also admire the area’s diverse marine fauna,
such as whales passing by, during season; you can also
practice deep-sea diving and sport fishing.
