Loreto Vacation Rentals, Condos, Villas and Beach Rentals

Loreto is a small, charming town located midway on the Baja Peninsula bordering the Sea of Cortez. It is famous for being the first capital of the Californias, its’ Jesuit missions built in the 1600s and for its excellent fishing and whale watching. The town’s official slogan is “300 Years Old and Still Undiscovered,” and while there is plenty to do here, it’s not for those looking for the glitz and glamour of the larger Mexican resort areas. Loreto has a quaint downtown area with shaded plazas and an attractive boardwalk where locals and tourists enjoy strolling along the waterfront. You can sail to the nearby pristine islands of Isla Coronado or Isla del Carmen where you can snorkel in the crystalline waters or sun bathe on soft white sand beaches. Whale watching is very popular in Loreto from the end of January to the middle of April, and Loreto has long been regarded as one of the best places for fishing for marlin, dorado, sailfish and the highly prized rooster fish. Other activities nearby include kayaking, scuba diving, golf, beachcombing or just relaxing and enjoying the spectacular scenery.

Loreto Weather & Climate

The weather  in Baja California is divided into two distinct categories: hot deserts and the cooler regions near the oceans. Baja is one of the hottest and driest regions on the North American continent. Between the cities of El Rosario and La Paz, rainfall is extremely low, averaging only two to four inches per year. It has been known to go for years at a time with no rain at all in the desert regions. However, the northern and southern ends of the Baja Peninsula get significantly more rain in wintertime. In the coastal areas near La Paz and Bahia de los Angeles, the cooling ocean breezes helps moderate temperatures somewhat, and rainy days are rare outside of the “rainy season” which is generally the month of September.
