(EMAILWIRE.COM, May 02, 2012 ) SALEM, OR -- Since the early days of outfitted sea kayaking tours, Tofino Expeditions has been guiding travelers on wilderness sea kayaking tours to destinations around the world. Tofino Expeditions trips off the coast of Baja began 25 years ago, and since that time, have become one of the travel industries leading authorities on sea kayaking and tourism in Baja.
Grant Thompson, Founder and Owner of Tofino Expeditions, recently issued this statement regarding air travel to the airport in Loreto (LTO), the main airport hub for all outfitted sea kayaking expeditions that take place in Baja:
“Due to economic challenges in recent years, several airlines have either reduced or eliminated their flight offerings to Loreto airport, which significantly drives up airfare costs and limits the availability of flights for travelers who wish to plan sea kayaking vacations or other trips in and around Baja. We strongly urge people who want to travel to this area to plan their vacations and book their airfares well in advance in order to save money and ensure availability.”
With the emergence of Baja as a prime destination for vacation home owners, many of the available flights are filled by travelers who are vacation homeowners in the area. This makes it extremely difficult and costly for travelers who want to join outfitted tours to find affordable and available flights to and from Loreto.
With its warm climate and clear, aquamarine waters, fascinating wildlife, and engaging culture, Baja has become a premier destination for sea kayakers and adventurers. Tofino Expeditions hopes to continue to promote Baja as an ideal destination for kayakers and make it easier for travelers to plan their dream vacation to the area.
