The uninhabited island of Espiritu
Santo ("Island of the Holy Spirit") lies off the coast of La
Paz, and features an amazing array of wildlife, as well as some
of the world's most fantastic beaches. A UNESCO world
heritage site, Espiritu Santo is one of the biggest ecotourism
attractions in the Baja peninsula of Mexico. It's largest
beach, Ensenada Grande, was named the Most Beautiful Beach in
Mexico by The Travel Magazine and as one of the 12 best
beaches in the world. The authors of the article described
it as having "seas the colour of Curaçao, wedding-cake white
sands, nail-varnish pink volcanic cliffs and inhabited by clouds
of yellow butterflies and the odd boojum tree".

off the beaten track, as we take you through mountain villages
