Bahía de los Ángeles, Coastal town in Ensenada, Mexico

The town extends along the Sea of Cortez shoreline, featuring fifteen volcanic islands and clear waters bordered by desert landscapes and mountains.

Founded in 1746, the settlement expanded during the 19th century when silver deposits transformed the area into a mining center.

The Nature and Culture Museum exhibits fossilized whale bones, mining artifacts, and photographs documenting the Pai Pai indigenous population.

The village provides hotels, restaurants, trailer parks, boat ramps, gas stations, grocery stores, and a medical clinic for visitors.

Isla Angel de la Guarda, the largest island in the archipelago, creates a natural barrier that forms protected waters for marine species.
