BEAUTIFUL JEWEL OF THE SEA OF CORTEZ
The port of San Felipe is founded in the beginning of the XX century by fishermen motivated by the abundant wealth of the High Gulf of California; they arrived to places very close to the Machorro’s Hill. This is the way how dedicated and working people arrived to the region, and without sparing any efforts formed a humble village of fishermen that thanks to their vision, entrepreneur spirit, and the generosity of Mother Nature later on gradually formed it and transformed it into a tourist destiny for residents and visitors.
Nothing can be compared to a place that in a natural way keeps within itself a world of contrasts that easily captivates the interest of any visitor. From the most peaceful to the one that is highly passionate for extreme activities; the scope of possibilities to rest, relax, practice some sport, visit the marine vaquita (marine mammal), and carry out video recordings and photographs to unique places in the planet like the Valley of Giants confirm that San Felipe is diamonded by great magnitude and singular beauty attractions.
A realm with all the first world tourist destiny privileges in Baja California takes us necessarily to a port of singular beauty bursting with tourist attractions found from the sea to the mountains, streets full of color, a busy daily atmosphere, and with a quality and warmth of people that with their cheerful hospitality make the visitor come back to enjoy San Felipe, "The Beautiful Jewel of the Sea of Cortez."
