About this dive site
Sheltered La Paz reef alternative when outer sites blow out.
El Bajito offers shallower Cortez reef within easier reach of La Paz when wind cancels Islotes or La Reina. Fish density and visibility still beat many Caribbean checkout dives. Good for mixed groups after a sea-lion morning.
El Bajito is a fallback when La Paz wind shuts outer sites; still check park and operator schedules.
