Sunset Sandboarding at La Paz Dunes Tour

Ready to try something new, fun and completely different? Your adventure begins between 3:00 PM and 6:00 PM, depending on the time of sunset throughout the year. Head into the stunning Baja desert toward El Mogote, just 20 minutes outside La Paz.

Surrounded by towering dunes, cactus-filled desert and spectacular views of the Sea of Cortez, you'll discover one of Baja's most exciting outdoor playgrounds.

Your guide will teach you the basics of sandboarding—similar to snowboarding, but on sand. Start on the smaller dunes, build your confidence and gradually work your way up to the highest peaks. Then ride down, climb back up and do it all over again!

Whether you're trying sandboarding for the first time, sharing the adventure with friends or looking for something fun to do as a family, El Mogote turns an afternoon in the desert into something completely different.

And then comes the grand finale: sunset. Climb the dunes as golden light spreads across the sand and take in spectacular views of the Sea of Cortez and cactus-filled Baja landscape.

Sandboarding, towering dunes, Sea of Cortez views and a spectacular Baja sunset—this is one La Paz adventure you won't want to miss!
