Discover the Wonders of Ojo de Liebre Lagoon

Getting There

• Car

  If you are traveling by car, start your journey from the nearest major city, which is Guerrero Negro. From Guerrero Negro, head south on Highway 1 (Carretera Transpeninsular) for approximately 18 kilometers (11 miles) until you reach a junction for the Ojo de Liebre Lagoon. Look for signs indicating the route to the lagoon. The road to the lagoon is unpaved, so a vehicle with good clearance is recommended. Follow the signs and continue for another 10 kilometers (6 miles) to reach the lagoon entrance. Be prepared to pay a small entrance fee to access the lagoon area.

• Public Transportation

  For those using public transportation, take a bus from major cities like La Paz or Tijuana to Guerrero Negro. Once in Guerrero Negro, you can either hire a taxi or arrange for a local tour operator to take you to Ojo de Liebre Lagoon. It is advisable to book in advance as transportation options may be limited, especially during peak whale-watching seasons. The cost for a taxi ride from Guerrero Negro to the lagoon is approximately 300-500 pesos, depending on negotiation and the time of day.

• Guided Tour

  Another option is to join a guided tour that includes transportation to Ojo de Liebre Lagoon. Many local tour companies offer packages from Guerrero Negro that include transportation, whale-watching excursions, and sometimes meals. Prices can vary widely depending on the tour duration and inclusions, typically ranging from 1,500 to 3,000 pesos per person. This option is great for those who prefer not to drive and want to learn more about the lagoon and its wildlife.
