Lined with ocotillos and elephant foot trees, the path winds upwards, gentle sections sometimes alternating with steeper ones. The views are fascinating – the deep blue sea extending to the horizon, golden brown islands floating on it, and the village of Bahía de Los Ángeles lying at your feet. Following the motto “the journey is the reward,” you can fully enjoy each minute of the walk. 44 Whale Sharks in the Bahía de los Ángeles Duration: 03:00 h · Level: Medium Whale sharks (Rhincodon typus) are the largest fish in the world. They can be up to 15 m (c. 50 ft.) long and weigh up to 10 tons. They are peaceable and curious. Each year from June to September, you can observe the sharks in the Bahía de los Ángeles with certified boaters and – given the appropriate permission – even snorkel with them. Whale sharks are also called “gentle giants” because they feed exclusively on plankton. 45 Visit of the desert mission of San Borja Duration: 01:00 h · Level: Medium In the loneliness of the Sonoran Desert, surrounded by a fascinating mountain landscape, lies the mission of San Francisco Borja, which the Jesuits established in 1762. Characterized by many succulents and other plant species, the scarce desert vegetation creates a bizarre environment and offers – like the desert birds – countless subjects for photographers. The ruins of the abandoned mission, the cemetery from the times of the first padres, and the infinite loneliness – a true adventure.
