The Ultimate Adventure Vacation Awaits Just 2 Hours from LA

Your Gateway to Peace: Just a 2-hour flight from LA, Puerta Cortés sits between the serene waters of the Sea of Cortez and the Sierra de la Laguna mountain range, offering the ideal backdrop for recharging your creative spirit.

If you’re in need of a creative reboot, look no further than a charming escape that’s just a 2-hour flight from LA to La Paz, Baja California Sur. In a world brimming with constant stimulation, our minds need moments to disconnect and renew. The antidote? Less screen time and more moments in nature, incorporating play whenever possible. Puerta Cortés delivers precisely this, blending sea and mountain vistas with an atmosphere of nostalgia and old-world charm.

Upon arrival, you’ll find a variety of activities that cater to every taste. From paddleboarding on crystal-clear waters and kayaking to early morning yoga sessions and barefoot golf with views over The Bay of La Paz, there’s something for everyone. Indulge in a leisurely bike ride along the Malecon, making stops for fresh seafood and exploring local culinary delights from Baja’s hidden gems.

Balandra Bay, deemed Mexico’s most beautiful beach, maintains its pristine allure with a daily visitor cap of 450, ensuring a tranquil experience for all while preserving the natural beauty for future generations. As the capital of Baja California Sur, La Paz is also a hub of education, with students flocking here to study marine biology and eco-regenerative tourism, reflecting the community’s commitment to preserving the region’s unique ecosystems.

The Sea of Cortez, home to over 900 species of fish, is protected thanks to diligent local conservation efforts. In La Paz, responsible travel is more than just a trend; it’s a way of life. Unlike the bustling Cabo San Lucas, La Paz provides a more authentic experience for those who seek to explore and preserve the environment, actively contributing to its protection. 

Accommodations at Puerta Cortés cater to every taste and dynamic – whether it’s a romantic escape or a family getaway. Choose from Hotel Indigo or vacation rentals that put you right near La Paz’s diverse landscapes. For a mountain retreat, explore Las Colinas for family-sized homes. For those dreaming of beachfront living, Playa de La Paz offers a stunning escape. Alternatively, charter the Butterfly Yacht for an unforgettable adventure, island-hopping along Baja Sur’s coast.

After your stay, return home with a renewed perspective, having been rejuvenated by the Sea of Cortez, enchanted by the Malecon, and inspired by the tranquil paisano way of life. This is your creative reboot getaway—an escape you didn’t know you needed.
