Water Temperature in Baja California Sur: General Trends and Swimming Opportunities
Baja California Sur, the southernmost state of Mexico’s Baja Peninsula, is surrounded by the Pacific Ocean to the west and the Gulf of California (Sea of Cortez) to the east. The water temperatures along its coastline are notably warm and inviting, especially on the Gulf side. In the Sea of Cortez, temperatures typically range from 74°F to 86°F (23°C to 30°C), with the warmest months occurring between late spring and early fall. These conditions make it an ideal destination for swimming, snorkeling, and exploring its renowned marine biodiversity, including whale sharks and vibrant coral reefs.
On the Pacific side, the waters are generally cooler, influenced by ocean currents. Sea temperatures here vary from 65°F to 77°F (18°C to 25°C), depending on the season. Winters tend to bring cooler water, while summer months warm the Pacific slightly, especially in southern areas like Todos Santos. The cooler Pacific waters are perfect for surfing, drawing enthusiasts from around the world to beaches such as Cerritos and San Pedrito.
The contrast between the Gulf’s warmer, tranquil waters and the Pacific’s cooler, wave-rich coastline gives Baja California Sur its unique appeal. Visitors can experience everything from relaxing swims and diving adventures to high-energy water sports, all within the stunning backdrop of this desert-meets-ocean landscape.
