Just off its shores are five desert islands that offer a unique ecosystem.

They boast a diverse flora and over 3,000 marine species, including sea lions, dolphins, flying fish, and, of course, whales during the winter months. The Coronado Islands complex includes Del Carmen, Danzante, Montserrat, Santa Catalina, and, of course, Coronado.

A 20-minute boat ride on a panga will take you to the small Coronado Island, covered with volcanic cacti, white sandy beaches, and a nearby rocky islet. Here, you can explore the island and engage in various water sports.
