After La Paz we drove across the peninsula to the ocean side town of Todos Santos. Todos Santos was more touristy, but a bit more laid back at the same time. Because we were no longer on the Sea of Cortez the beaches here were rougher and the water was little colder, overall not really tropical like La Paz. That said we still had one of the best beach days of the whole trip here. After 45 minutes of driving down dirt roads, sandy patches where we thought were going to get stuck and laughing about how we couldn’t believe this was the first time we got lost we found the beach we were looking for! One of the things I treasured most about the trip was how nothing was crowded. Baja’s high season doesn’t really pick up until October so everything was incredibly slow quiet (a welcome change from the ultra-condensed crowds of San Francisco). And this beach was no different. There was one other family of four there and that was it! We all hung out together, but also broke off in pairs and trios to do things that interested us. Some walked on the beach and pet the wild horses, others laid in the sun reading, while some went hiking above the shoreline to take in the view from the top,  but we all went body surfing because the waves were huge!
