Loreto Small-Craft Harbor

26° 0.9′ N · 111° 20.4′ W

La Dársena, Loreto's small municipal harbour off the malecón—home to the panga fleet, the bait sellers and the national-park rangers' office.

Practical

Coordinate is OpenStreetMap's 'Puerto Loreto' marina (seamark harbour). A panga harbour rather than a yacht marina—the sources give no transient slips; use it as a dinghy landing and go to Puerto Escondido for berths. Panga captains wait in the parking lot (island tours about US$80 per person, private 5-hour pangas US$180-250 in 2025). Live bait (sardinas) is sold at the municipal marina (US$25 for a few scoops in 2016, verify locally), and park wristbands were US$3 at the office in 2016 (the day pass was MX$215 in 2025). The CONANP park rangers' office here sells day bracelets.
