Stories from the East Cape

Costa Palmas 1

Thanks to our private marina, boating at Costa Palmas is as easy as can be. As you can imagine, we have already started adding boats to the Costa Palmas Yacht Club and have enjoyed some memorable boat days over the past few months. First up is our 29′ Hinkley T29R. This magnificent 440hp jet drive […]

Welcome To The Beach Bar

This summer we officially opened the most exclusive beach bar and restaurant in Baja. The Beach Bar is part of the Costa Palmas Beach and Yacht Club, an exceptional members only club that sits at the heart of our community. With the first part of the Beach and Yacht Club now complete, our talented culinary […]

Canyon Hiking

Despite our beautiful beachfront location, Costa Palmas is just a short drive away from some fantastic hiking in the Sierra La Laguna Mountains. These granite mountains run down the spine of Baja California Sur with the highest peak (Picacho de la Laguna) reaching an impressive 7,090 ft. This sublime mountain range was declared a biosphere […]

Summer Breeze

Throughout the summer at Costa Palmas we are blessed with a glorious afternoon sea breeze. This breeze usually begins to fill in around 10 or 11am from the South East and gradually builds throughout the day usually peaking around 3pm and then quickly dying off around 6 or 7pm. At it’s peak, the breeze typically […]

Yesterday was one […]

All summer long we are blessed with very calm conditions, no waves and a light afternoon sea breeze to keep things cool. When you add warm water and great weather to […]

Simple Pleasures

When we created the Costa Palmas Beach Club we set out to fill it with the best gear, toys and guides available. That winning combination delivers an epic platform for fun and adventure. When it comes to kids though, its often the simplest activities that they enjoy the most. Snorkeling, wakeboarding, windsurfing and sailing may […]

Glassy Morning Sessions

During the first few hours of the day the Sea of Cortez puts on a daily show. With yesterday’s afternoon breeze long gone and today’s sea breeze still a few hours away, the ocean glasses off. Not surprisingly, the beach is alive and buzzing with early risers. Avid fly fishing folk stalk the beaches looking […]

A Brief History Of Cabo Pulmo National Park

Just 17 miles South East of Costa Palmas lies the small village of Cabo Pulmo, an unassuming settlement that sits at the center of one of the most remarkable national parks in the world. Despite being the oldest of only 3 coral reefs on the west coast of North America, the reef at Cabo Pulmo […]
