Is This For You?

Who This Trip Is For

✓

You Want to Train Your Freediving

This trip includes real freediving training. You should already feel comfortable in open water. A confident swimmer and snorkeler, at ease without seeing the bottom, will get the most out of it.

✓

You Don’t Want to Choose — Freediving or Wildlife

Why pick one? The Baja Odyssey is built for people who want both: real training on the line and real encounters in the water, without sacrificing either.

✓

Comfortable with Moving Around

This trip moves — from La Ventana to MagBay, with transfers and new accommodations along the way. If you don’t mind packing up and moving between locations, this itinerary is built for you.

✓

Ready for Long Days at Sea

Finding wildlife takes patience — long hours scanning the water, waiting for the moment it all comes together. Bring your stamina; the payoff is worth it.

Dudas

Frequently Asked Dudas

The Trip
This expedition is designed for people who want the best of Baja without needing two or three weeks to explore it, and without the overwhelm of planning it all yourself. We’ve mapped out the highlights and handle all the logistics. We relocate from La Ventana to MagBay instead of doing day trips back and forth, because the drive is simply too long to do round-trip. Staying in MagBay lets us make the most of our time there.
It’s the sweet spot: the best freediving conditions and visibility at Cabo Pulmo, and peak sardine run season in MagBay. La Ventana adds an extra layer of surprise, we never know exactly what we’ll encounter there, which is part of the fun, and conditions for freediving are excellent too.
No. This is a freediving expedition, not a scuba trip. We won’t be diving with tanks at any point.
Yes. We provide all freediving equipment, including a 3mm wetsuit.
Is This Right For You?
It’s not required, but it’s highly recommended. If you’re already certified, we’ll have about two freediving sessions during the expedition to refine your technique. If you’re not certified, we offer a full AIDA 1 certification at no extra cost, theory is completed before the trip, and the practical portion happens during the expedition. That said, we recommend taking a course beforehand (with us or in your hometown) so you arrive more prepared. At minimum, you should be a confident swimmer and snorkeler, completely at ease in open water. We have long days at sea, and comfort in the water matters more than any certification.
This trip isn’t recommended for people with back problems. Also worth knowing: there’s no bathroom on the boat, so bathroom breaks happen in the sea. It’s the norm in Baja, and it’s something our clients get used to quickly without any issues. Days can also run 6-8+ hours (sometimes longer) at sea.
Booking & Logistics
Click “Book Now,” select your date on the calendar, and follow the steps to add your details and pay the deposit. Within 24-48 hours, you’ll receive a PDF pre-trip handbook with everything you need to prepare.
The closest airport is San José del Cabo. Airport transportation is included, we pick up the whole group together in one van and take you to La Ventana, as long as you arrive on Day 1 and depart on the last day of the expedition.
