✈️ Where is Loreto?

Located about 700 miles south of the U.S. border, Loreto sits on the inside coast of the Baja California Sur peninsula, directly on the Sea of Cortez. Unlike Cabo San Lucas on the Pacific side, Loreto enjoys warm, calm waters sheltered by the Baja mountains and dotted with five pristine islands.

Loreto is directly connected by air to major cities including Los Angeles, Phoenix, Dallas, Calgary, and Tijuana. With its modern international airport just 15 minutes from town, you’ll step off the plane and into paradise in no time.

Alaska Airlines is introducing seasonal nonstop flights from San Diego (SAN) to Loreto (LTO), beginning December 19, 2026. Flights are scheduled on Wednesdays and Saturdays through April 28, 2027. Check Alaska Airlines for availability and current schedules.

Why Loreto?

Known as the gateway to the Loreto Bay National Marine Park, this UNESCO World Heritage site protects abundant marine life, vibrant coral reefs, and world-class fishing waters. Here, you can explore dolphins, whales, sea turtles, and endless sportfishing opportunities—all in calm, turquoise seas.
