Baja California Sur, Mexico
Magdalena Bay sardine run
The most active trip I lead: long days on the boat from a small fishing village, and time in open water where you need to feel at ease and respond to what the ocean does.
Dates, prices, the itinerary and booking for this expedition are on its Beyond the Blue page.

I guide this expedition with Beyond the Blue from a small fishing village in Baja California Sur. It is the most active trip I lead: accompanying the group means paying attention to the sea and to how each person feels in open water.
What to expect
Expect long days on the boat and time in open water. The sea and any wildlife activity determine how the experience unfolds; a sardine run encounter is not guaranteed.
Water comfort and participation
You need to feel comfortable in open water and able to respond to changing conditions. Discuss your experience with Beyond the Blue before booking; the trip page holds the current participation requirements.
Safety and responsible encounters
I pay attention to the sea, the group and individual comfort. We adapt to actual conditions and follow local guidance where applicable. An animal's wellbeing comes before a photo; an encounter is never forced or guaranteed.
