They are a pair of islands, Isla Todos Santos Norte and Isla Todos Santos Sur, located 19 km off the coast of Ensenada.
The islands has become famous among surf lovers, since the waves of the North Island, the smallest, are some of the biggest waves in the entire American continent.
The northern part of the South Island, being protected, is a good place for diving. Exploring this seabed is fascinating, you can find spider crabs, white urchins and strange starfish, to name a few.
There are no facilities on the islands, just two lighthouses in not very good condition and a tuna ranch. However, they have beautiful landscapes and a rich biodiversity that includes some endemic species such as the mustachioed sparrow or the king snake.
From January to March it is an excellent place for gray whale watching.
