Playas Pacificas
Playas Pacificas is located within Rancho la Aguja, an old and beautiful Baja California Sur ranch of 363 hectares (900 acres). The ranch, with its 2.3 km (1.43 miles) of Pacific beachfront, is a serene and peaceful place, bordered by the boundless energy and life of the Pacific coast.
Nestled between the beaches of Punta Marquez and Punta Conejo, Playas Pacificas consists of a wide arroyo valley with cleared fields to the south, and a northern section of elevated plains; these plains contain the Playas Pacificas development.
The project will be developed in phases, and the first phase offered consists of several of the most attractive lots in the entire development. There are 15 available large and private properties, all with white water views and a three-minute walk down to the swimmable beach.

Active Lifestyle
Here on the mid-Pacific, the ocean and the desert beckon outdoor enthusiasts to pursue their favorite activities. Here you can wade in the calm waters just off the beach, bodysurf in the waves, and start your morning with a swim in the ocean without worrying about water quality. Or, grab your surfboard and paddle out – no need to battle a crowd to catch the perfect wave. Kayak along the coast as you keep an eye out for whales breaching and pods of dolphins cavorting in the waves. Here’s a little-known secret, the winds at Playas Pacificas are perfect for kiteboarding.
Have something more relaxing in mind? Stroll the long stretches of empty beach, and explore shallow tide pools where the marine habitat includes tropical fish, exotic shells, crabs and more. Further inland, miles of hiking, biking and ATV trails await your exploration through the desert. Hike or bike to the top of a nearby mesa and enjoy spectacular panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean and nearby cardonales (Cardon forests). Out here, you’ll enjoy quiet desert nights with stars you had forgotten about. The full moon rises over the mesa south of the arroyo and the waves break in mile-long ribbons of phosphorescent light.
Security
Baja California Sur is one of Mexico’s safest states – and there is simply less crime in rural Baja California Sur than in urban areas.

The Year-Round Climate
While the eastern coast of the Baja peninsula reaches 105F and 85% humidity on a summer day, on the Pacific side a year-round temperate climate prevails. No need to escape the heat in the summer, here on the mid-Pacific coast, summer is the perfect time of year: the sea is calm and warm, and the ocean breezes are pleasantly mild. Daytime summer temperatures average 10-15 degrees F (5-7 degrees Celsius) cooler than La Paz, and in the winter, temperatures are slightly warmer- A/C optional and more time for the summer outdoors!
Getting There
Local residents have taken to calling the stretch of coast extending from north of Todos Santos, some 90 miles up the Pacific coast to Bahia Magdalena, the mid-Pacific Coast. The mid-Pacific is a beautiful off-the-beaten-track sort of place, sparsely populated with a couple of villages, small market gardens, fish camps and old family ranches producing beef, lamb and cheeses. The beaches sweep from point to point and are pristine, beckoning eco-adventurers and buyers looking for something a little more unique and different from the more popular cities and towns of Baja California Sur. Both Vista del Mar and Playas Pacificas communities are located just over 1 hour from La Paz international airport and major shopping. That means easy cIty access with no urban issues. An easy 40-minute drive on a fully paved road takes you to the village of Conquista Agraria, followed by a 20-minute drive on a maintained dirt road that offers stunning views of the Pacific ocean and beaches along the way. Bring a picnic lunch and a few chairs to watch the waves and enjoy the swimmable beaches.
