Bienvenidos (welcome!) to the historic town of Loreto. A place where you'll find historic buildings dotted with bright green plant life, exotic flowers bursting out of the concrete in fresh-fish taco stands, and the enchanting Mision de Loreto- a mission-style church that was built in 1697. While Loreto boasts a wealth of treasures on land, including opportunities for hiking, biking, and nature-tours that can fill up a camera with pictures of radiant natural setting, it is also a destination ideal for those who love the sea. The Islands of Loreto features Mexico's largest marine preserve where dolphins, seals, turtles and sea lions all play in the water. The underwater animal life alone rivals that of any world class aquarium.
Loreto, Mexico is located on the eastern coast of the Baja California Peninsula in the state of Baja California Sur.
