La Paz, often known as 'The Pearl of the Mexican Pacific', is one of the cities in Baja California Sur that you should not miss. This city is the queen of beaches, ecotourism, and breathtaking vistas, in addition to being the capital of the southern section of the state of Baja California Sur.

La Paz has stable weather 365 days a year, making it a perfect destination to visit at any time of year. This obviously means that you don't have to plan your vacation around a specific season. Besides, La Paz boasts of having great restaurants and street stalls where the food will not be less, you will be able to try its famous seafood tacos.

Here's a sample of the trips you'll find so you can start planning how to organise your days and the destinations you wish to visit:

What to do in La Paz?

- Malecon and important attractions tour: Dedicate one day of your visit to learning about the streets and history of La Paz by walking along the Malecon, which is 5 kilometres long, with a guide. Bronze statues devoted to notable figures from the aquatic world will be on display there. They will almost certainly take you to the Municipal Palace, the Juarez Theatre and the Velasco Garden, which features a fountain with the Balandra mushroom. This type of tour is perfect if you come with children, as there is no restriction to visiting the most unique corners of the city.

As previously stated, La Paz is an excellent destination for those seeking to explore amazing beaches. Therefore, we recommend that you have your swimming costume with you at all times, as most city tours include a stop at one of these lovely beaches for an incredible sunset.

- Visit the Mining Communities: This tour, which lasts a full day, departs from your accommodation in La Paz and takes you to the towns of El Triunfo and San Antonio, two historic mining towns. San Antonio will provide you with lanes full of magic, old houses, and, of course, chimneys and massive ovens. In El Triunfo, on the other hand, you may visit the English cemetery and one of the most stunning vistas. The excursion to the most famous chimney, La Ramona, a relic that will astound you with its 47-meter height, is a must-do.

These guided tours will also include a visit to one of the best regional restaurants to enjoy typical dishes and traditional drinks. A stop at stalls with handmade sweets will leave you wanting more.

- Tour of La Paz's beaches: This type of visit should not be overlooked; tours departing from your hotel will take you to the city's beautiful beaches, for which you will need to plan half a day to a full day to enjoy this activity in peace and quiet. Balandra Beach is one of the beaches you'll visit, and it's considered one of the best in the country, not just in Baja California Sur. You'll have plenty of time to unwind, swim in the crystal blue waters, and even photograph the mushroom-shaped rock. The other beach to visit is Playa Tecolote, a beach with a calm atmosphere. It offers an intimate environment away from large groups of visitors. However, this does not mean that it is a boring beach or that you will not enjoy it. You will notice that its beauty is one-of-a-kind. You will have free time during these guided excursions to stroll about at your leisure or buy at the craft markets located close by.

The Pearl of the Pacific will provide several alternatives to suit you and your group and facilities like transportation and cuisine. We also recommend visiting some of its museums, such as the Whale Museum, an ideal plan for people who love the ocean and marine animals. Located right in the city centre is the Regional Museum of Anthropology, where you can learn about Baja California Sur's earliest historical events and how it has evolved.

This perfect mix of history, culture, food and beautiful landscapes combined with the Mexican Republic's most spectacular beaches exists in La Paz.
