Sport Fishing Charters Magdalena Bay
La Bahia de Magdalena, or Magdalena Bay, is a spectacular stretch of shoreline that occupies 35 miles of Baja California’s Pacific Coast, protected from the open ocean by the Islas Magdalena y Margarita. The small port villages of San Carlos and Puerto Lopez Mateos provide excellent bases of operation for commercial and sport fishermen alike; the nearby mangrove swamps are home to numerous species of birds, and the area well-known as a prime location from which tourists can watch the annual California Grey Whale migration as the swim to the Gulf of Alaska and back.
Something that is unique about Magdalena Bay is the fact that compared to most resort towns on the Baja peninsula, there is very little in the way of tourist amenities. Aside from two small hotels and a handful of restaurants that cater more to the whale-watching clientele, you’ll find very little to distract you from world-class sport-fishing. The local panga boats and fishing guides for hire are part-time, and there are a few other boats for hire out of San Carlos and Puerto Lopez Mateos. Other that that, plan on “roughing it” on one of the beaches or at the fishing camp at Punta Hughes, located on the north end of Bahia Santa Maria.
In general, the lack of facilities means that true sports fishermen will find that the area will provide a pleasant, crowd-free fishing experience; eco-tourists will appreciate the unspoiled natural beauty of the area’s wilderness; other marine activities such as wind surfing and kayaking are also available.
