Loreto Cruise Port
Loreto, Mexico
Loreto Cruise Port is a small and serene port located on the Baja California peninsula, offering a peaceful escape from the bustling cruise ports along the western coast of Mexico. With a rich history dating back to the late 1600s when Jesuit missionaries founded the city, Loreto is a charming destination with attractions like the original Mission of Our Lady of Loreto, Jesuit Missions Museum, historic houses, and cobblestone streets. Visitors can embark on guided walking tours, including visits to the historic town of San Javier, home to the second-oldest Jesuit mission in the California region. For adventure seekers, snorkeling tours to Coronado Island are available, showcasing the beautiful El Atracadero Blanco beach with its pristine white sands.
