9 Palms — Nueve Palmas

Named for the nine palm trees that once marked this remote stretch of coast, 9 Palms is where serious buyers come when they want what no resort community can offer — true remoteness, world-class waves, and the last pieces of untouched Sea of Cortez beachfront in Baja California Sur.

9 Palms is a legendary surf break on the East Cape of Baja California Sur — located between San José del Cabo and La Paz along the Sea of Cortez. The beach delivers powerful, uncrowded waves that have attracted surfers from around the world for decades, while remaining one of the few stretches of undeveloped coastline accessible by road in all of Baja.

Cabo Pulmo National Park — home to one of North America's oldest living coral reefs and a UNESCO World Heritage Site — is just minutes down the coast, making this one of the richest marine environments in all of Mexico.

• Surfing: A powerful, barreling wave that works on south swells — one of the most sought-after breaks in Baja for experienced surfers. Uncrowded and consistent.
• Sport Fishing: World-class sport fishing right offshore — dorado, marlin, and tuna in season, with some of the best numbers in all of Baja.
• Diving & Snorkeling: Cabo Pulmo National Park is minutes away — North America's oldest coral reef with extraordinary marine biodiversity.
• Whale Sharks: The East Cape is one of the best places in Mexico to swim with whale sharks, typically December through April.
• Solitude: Miles of uncrowded beach — no beach clubs, no jet skis, no crowds. The Baja of 20 years ago, for a little longer.
