Practical

Coordinate is approximate: Isla Danzante's interior; the trailhead beach is not published—ask park rangers at La Dársena. About 1 hour 5 minutes (Loreto.com). Stay on marked trails; take water. CONANP protected-area fee applies: a Loreto Bay National Park day pass (bracelet) was MX$215 per person in 2025, and the annual Conservation Passport (MX$3,620 in 2025) covers every federal protected area; buy online at descubreanp.conanp.gob.mx or from the rangers at La Dársena in Loreto, and carry proof aboard.
