ENTRY DESCRIPTION
2019 La Paz, Mexico

I was so happy to discover that along the West coast of Mexico you can dive with them, guaranteed! There are several sea lion colonies around the whole Baja California, the peninsula separating the Gulf of California / Sea of Cortez and the North Pacific Ocean. Sea lion colonies seem to just 'hang out' around a rock formation or a small island. Hundreds of sea lions relaxing in the sun or jumping in the water to play or check you out.
