Loreto Bay Vacation
For anyone traveling to Loreto Bay, Nopolo, in the near future, here’s an excerpt from a message I sent to a fellow traveler recently. Our ‘typical day’ is coming soon. Enjoy…
There is great info about Loreto Bay in the following 2 blogs:

The weather here this time of year has been mid to low 20’s in the day and 10-15 at night. Bring warm clothes and shoes for the evening!
There is a little store in Loreto Bay that sells most things ie groceries and water (no meat, fish, chicken). In town, we have shopped at el Pescador, right on Salvatoire near the main stop lights, also, there is a farmers market every Sunday from 7 – 2 pm in town and there are great prices on produce, fish and chicken.
In town, we have enjoyed Cafe Ole for breakfast and Super Burro for dinner (open at 6 pm). These 2 places have great food at amazing prices! We have also gone to La Palapa and Tio Lupe (good food but abit more $)
In Loreto Bay, 2 of the best town restaurants have opened satellite locations. We really loved ‘Hole 19″ by Mita Gourmet) at the golf course and el Cardon (try the sesfood burrito) on the paseo.
My favorite place in all of Loreto Bay is el Corazon Cafe on the paseo, serving coffee drinks, fresh squeezed juices, smoothies, breakfast, snacks and lite lunches. El Corazon is co-owned by a woman from Vancouver.
The hotel grill has good food too.
We went kayaking which was fun and kayaks can be rented at the hotel. Your sons may enjoy paddle boarding too.
We have done a day trip to Isla Coronado in the past but heard it was quite cold this year. If you want to do this, talk to the guy at the trailer at the marina in town. Approximate cost $100 US for day.
We highly recommend driving south of Loreto Bay for the scenic views. There are great hikes into the canyons, we haven’t done this yet but would love to. You need a guide for this. The other thing we haven’t done yet is the drive to San Javier Mission in the mountains.
You get the best deals in paying in pesos.
If you want to have a look at real estate, talk to Ariel Klein at Loreto Bay Homes.
If you want to have a look at the model homes, talk to Ricardo, Isack, or Oscar at Villas de las Mexico at the hotel. No pressure, just good info, nice guys.
There is yoga every Thursday am from 9-10:30 am.
There are ladies water aerobics m, wed, fri at 10 am at the community pool.
The local Mexican people really appreciate it if you try to speak Spanish 🙂
Jovina at Spa Tranquil on the paseo does great massages (book ahead) $40 US for an hour.
We are staying at Steve’s place unit FN493 and are leaving Jan 6th, maybe you coming in next?
Hmmm, I think that covers it. Any questions that I didn’t answer?
Oh, we started drinking all bottled water but now use tap water for coffee. No one has been sick at all.
Bring beach towels!
I hope you have fun!
in peace & mindfulness,
