Links to help you during your Sailboat Charter in Baja
There are many links for La Paz, Baja, Sea of Cortez and sailing. I have chosen these that I hope will enhance the pleasure of your charter. Most of them have additional links to give you nearly all the links available for the Baja peninsula.

This is a club for cruisers, former cruisers and gringos who live in La Paz. They sponsor a club house, rallies, and dinners and have a foundation that has a breakfast program for underprivileged children in the barrios. Lots of information and some good links. Tom has put the pictures of the Sealion in the kayak that we sent him. They are the son and his girl friend of a charter from Australia that we had in January 2007. Tom on "Double Eagle” does an excellent job.

This has a lot of information and maps of La Paz and the Cabo area. This is considered the website for la Paz.

A lot of information on the whole southern peninsula. The webmaster is an American who lives in Baja and really works on keeping it current. It is well worth going to and in fact you may want to subscribe (free) as it is one of the best.

This is an article that is in the Insider, which tells of a crewed charter by Mike Rickman for the Moorings. He is a friend of ours and has done a couple of charters for us. Please read this, as I believe it will make your charter more fulfilling. Lots of good information.

This is the best sailing rag by far in the USA. It is primarily for the San Francisco bay area. The changes in the ‘Lattitude’ section has letters from cruisers, who are cruising all over the world. They sponsor the Baja Ha Ha, the yearly get-together for sailboats that come down to the Baja from San Diego. They have an excellent links page.
