Discover La Paz by Hire Car
La Paz literally means peace, and it captures exactly the feeling you get when you first see the Mexican city on the gorgeous bay of the same name on the Gulf of California.
A sensational panorama, especially when the sun is just setting blood red in the sea.
But La Paz’s estimated 250,000 residents can also live in peace, having the highest standard of living in all of Mexico, with an average income of about $27 a day. In the rest of the country, it is only US$4.35.
Diver’s Paradise La Paz
La Paz is considered an absolute mecca for underwater research and marine biology.
This is primarily due to the diversity of the water zones, which in turn is the reason for an extraordinary abundance of species throughout the Gulf and Bay of La Paz.
This, of course, attracts divers and snorkelers from all over the world to the picturesque place. A popular tourist spot here is especially the Espirita-Santos archipelago, the Islands of the Holy Spirit, which borders the bay to the east.
Many of the offshore islands have even been protected by UNESCO as bio-reserves since 2005.
Leisure activities in La Paz
The most beautiful beaches of La Paz are Playa Balandra, Playa el Tecolote and Playa el Coyote.
Yet, a stroll along the romantic beach promenade of the city is also a unique experience, which is additionally sweetened by the duty-free shopping here.
To ensure that your holiday in La Paz and its extremely interesting, beautiful surroundings is indeed a unique experience, a hire car is definitely recommended.
