What to do in La Paz Municipality

Pack your swimsuit and sunscreen for a day of fun and relaxation at Balandra Beach which lays claim to being one of the most beautiful in Mexico. This large circular bay is flanked by desert hills and has a pristine shoreline of white sand that leads to turquoise waters.

Crystal clear water, slides and sports activities are among the many features that make Playa el Coromuel one of the most popular beaches in the region. Gulls and pelicans gather at this beach, where you can often spot dolphins as well. Get a space for your family in the shaded enclosure of a palapa, a small hut of thatched straw and dried palm leaves.

With soft, white sand and calm blue water, El Tecolote Beach is an idyllic stretch of the coast that appears to go on for miles. Swim, enjoy watersports, work on your tan and dine with ocean views.

The Marina Cortez is a charming harbor equipped with a few restaurants and countless sails of boats. It marks the southwestern end of the Malecón boardwalk and its accompanying sandy strand. Make your way along the docks and pick out your favorites from the yachts, speed boats and sailing vessels.

Todos Santos Plaza lives up to its more common name of Plaza Centro, as it is a spot that locals see as central to the community even though it is west of the town’s geographic center. Come here to relax in the square and visit the church, theater and other sites near the courtyard.
