Jacques Cousteau describes the Sea of Cortez as "The Aquarium of the World" and that is exactly why it is now a protected body of water.
Now come with me. Close your eyes and let your imagination take you here (ok, don't really close your eyes until you finish reading my attempt to put the amazing beauty and fun of this place into words):
.......with excitement you hurry up the amber steps to enter the bold double wooden doors of your new "home away from home". Colors jump out at you, places on canvas entice you and comfort awaits you. Throw open the slider and feel the warm sea breeze flow across your skin. Ahhhh I'm here....
......."why I would love a drink while I soak up the golden sun." You slowly open your eyes to take in once again the breathtaking scene of this cool blue infinity pool seemingly blending into the aqua sparkle of the Sea....
......."Wahoo, someone help me reel this thing in!"....
.......I glance beneath me to see a shadow that looks like the vast wings of a magnificent bird, there twirling at it's edges is a dance of angel fish teasing and distracting a playful sea lion heading in my direction....
.......what a wonderful meal, something exotic, flavors that make my taste buds wonder what more there is to discover! The musicians are ready, the singer begins and the gentle warm night breeze whispers my name. Only steps away is my home away from home, to my pillow....
......."I Don't Want To Go Home!!!"
The Costa Baja Resort Marina Village Offers: Int'l Restaurants, Shops, Galleries, Yacht Charters, Fishing/Snorkeling/Scuba Diving Excursions, Rental Car Service and more. And what would you think about a short trip over to Mateos Lopez to not only see the California Grey Whales but actually have a chance to "pet" the whales. Yes, I said pet the whales like I did! Resident Services will be pleased to help you arrange all of this and more.
Or take the free shuttle to The Malecon, the beautiful seaside walkway along the tranquil waterfront of La Paz (only 5 minutes away.) Enjoy shopping, dining, strolling and watching a captivating sunset upon the Sea of Cortez. For an added treat, experience The Malecon on a Sunday night - Family Night - and mingle with the locals while the local vendors offer their goods and delicacies.
THEN THERE ARE THOSE DAYS WHERE ALL YOU WANT TO DO IS JUST RELAX. Grab your favorite book, perhaps a magazine to brouse through or that Ipod you remembered to drop in your carry-on and take them with you to the elegant, beautiful new MARINA BEACH CLUB. Enjoy splashing around in the infinity pool, lounging in the sun or shade, signaling for poolside libations (love that word)and chatting with good friends and family or consider making new ones. How much more can a relaxing vacation be all about!!
Let's put it this way... We haven't brought a person here yet that walked away saying "I want to go home now". What will you say? Come find out for yourself.
