Introduction

Welcome to our movable glamping and kayaking adventure on Isla Espiritu Santo! Camp Colossus was created for those who want the joy of kayaking from beach to beach in a wild, pristine environment, matched with the comforts of large tents, chef-prepared meals, and full panga support. 

During this 6-day, 5-night trip, we'll kayak the length of Isla Espiritu Santo, making camp at 3 beautiful beaches along the way. In addition to kayaking our adventures will include swimming with playful sea lions puppies, snorkeling beautiful reefs, hiking the volcanic trails of the island, bird watching (there's Blue-footed Boobies!) and taking in the stars and Milky Way at night. The bliss that is being in Baja! 

Our camp features 10' x 8' REI tents that stand over 6' high and have comfortable cots with sleeping bags, chairs, bedside tables, and towels for beach and bath.  There is a dining area where the camp chefs serve terrific food throughout the day, starting with cold breakfast and coffee, followed by hot breakfast, lunch, happy hour and dinner. A compost toilet cabaƱa completes the camp. 

To maximize your enjoyment of this kayaking trip and to have as smooth a trip as possible, please note the following points when planning your trip:

  • Boats leave for the island at 10:00 AM on the morning of your reservation, so please plan to arrive in Baja at least one night prior to the start date of your Camp Colossus trip. 
  • We generally return to shore about 11:00 AM on the final day of your trip, but wind or other conditions may determine the exact hour and could have an impact on your plans for the remainder of the day. If conditions are good, you should be able to catch a flight out of Los Cabos at 4:00 PM or later, or out of La Paz at 1:00 PM or later. However, we strongly recommend that you book your flight out of Baja for the day following the end of your stay at Camp Colossus (or later) to prevent any vacation snafus.
  • The price for the trip, detailed in the column to the right, includes transfers from hotels in Todos Santos and La Paz, but not Los Cabos. Transfers from Los Cabos hotels and airport can be arranged for an additional fee of US$280 each way.
  • All guests are strongly encouraged to purchase travel insurance
