AdventureSmith Explorations Adds Historic Yacht To Inventory Of Small Ships Exploring Baja Peninsula
Small ship cruise expert AdventureSmith Explorations http://www.adventuresmithexplorations.com announces a new 10-day Baja, Mexico cruise aboard the 86-ft., historic eight-guest adventure yacht, *Westward. Launched in 1924 as the flagship of the Alaska Coast Hunting and Cruising Co., she is arguably Seattle's most famous motor yacht having pioneered hunting, fishing, and adventure travel in the remote regions of Washington, British Columbia and Alaska. "Westward Voyages in the Sea of Cortez launching January 2015 is our perfect complement to an already outstanding portfolio of Baja Small Ship Cruises," said Todd Smith, AdventureSmith Explorations' founder/owner. Ten-day itineraries featuring both the Sea of Cortez and whale watching in the Pacific's San Ignacio Lagoon are offered in January and February 2015. Smith likened cruising the eco systems of the Baja Peninsula to cruising the islands of the Galapagos. Both regions offer explorations of geography, flora and fauna, bird and wildlife. Both regions are UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Westward Voyages in the Sea of Cortez* spends seven days cruising in the Sea of Cortez with three days watching gray whales based from Kuyimita Tent Camp adjacent to San Ignacio Lagoon Whale Sanctuary. The resulting 9-night/10-day cruise/tour is the most in-depth and intimate Baja exploration available. The per person double rate is $5,750. See: http://www.adventuresmithexplorations.com/westward-voyages-in-the-sea-of-cortez Westward will ply the pristine waters of Baja in the coolest months in order to enhance the cruise experience that includes the cacophony of leaping rays, spouting whales, acrobatic dolphins and chirping bird song from the dawning shore. Guests and crew gather on the 17 by 14-ft. shaded back deck for meals and conversation. Each stateroom has three portholes that open. In addition each bathroom has one opening port. Staterooms are outfitted with a portable, battery-powered fan to provide a breeze on still nights. The air may be warm and dry in the Gulf of California winters, but the water is cool and helps offset the warmth of the day, especially in staterooms that extend below the waterline. Other cruise programs on ships for up to 84 guests are available. Please see: http://www.adventuresmithexplorations.com/baja-california Additional options include two eight-day whale watching cruises January-March on a variety of small ships. Rates are from $2,995 per person, double, aboard the 84-guest *Safari Endeavor. Rates are from $5,990 per person, double, aboard the 62-guest National Geographic Sea Lion and Sea Bird*. Additional cruise programs for up to 15 days are also offered in this region.
