Spectacular Bird Watching in Baja
08-23-2010 Spectacular Bird Watching in Baja…from the Wildlife-Viewing Deck of a Magical Inn
Complimentary Binoculars and Field Guide Will Be Provided to Guests During the Fall Prime Bird-Watching Season in Baja Whether you sit under the thatched palapa on the wildlife-viewing deck with binoculars and bird guidebook in hand, sipping a “Royal Margarita,” or prefer to stalk your viewing prey among the reeds and waterways of the lagoon, bird watching at Posada la Poza is so spectacular that you won’t stop tweeting about it. Posada La Poza is that rare hotel where you just have to step outside the door of your room or suite to have a unique, stunning nature experience. In fact, you can bird watch while enjoying gourmet dining, sunbathing by the salt-water pool or relaxing in the aromatic and flowering tropical gardens.
How many different avians will you see today? More than 90 species (see list below) have been spotted here, on the grounds of this magical inn on the Tropic of Cancer in southern Baja. Why are there hundreds of birds here, splashing in the water and swooping through the air, at any given time? Sweet-water springs surface here forming a small lagoon and lush, verdant natural setting that is like a magnet for fowl. If you head to Baja between September and December, expect to see diverse bird life at Posada La Poza because autumn is prime bird-watching season. And for guests who come during the fall months this year, the inn will be providing complimentary use of binoculars and a field guide on the region’s birds. Posada la Poza is located in the quaint artists community of Todos Santos, which is about an hour north of Cabo San Lucas. Swiss owners Juerg and Libusche Wiesendange infuse impeccable European hospitality and service standards into the Mexican charm. Todos Santos (“All Saints") is a world away from the tourism bustle of Cabo (yet easy to get to from either San Jose del Cabo or La Paz international airports). Sitting on the Tropic of Cancer, it blends the beauty of the Sonoran Desert and the Pacific Ocean with the charm of old Mexico, and is known for its art galleries and shopping. Posada La Poza is in a dramatic natural setting five minutes from town. [Back to Press Releases Main]
Posada la Poza (www.lapoza.com) is a charming, yet sophisticated, inn with just eight beautifully appointed rooms and suites, a gourmet restaurant emphasizing the finest organic ingredients, a wine cellar with the most extensive list anywhere of Baja wines (notably the acclaimed wines of the Valle de Guadelupe), and a large rooftop deck for wildlife viewing or just enjoying the spectacular panoramas of coast and Pacific Ocean over lunch or drinks. Try the incredibly refreshing Royal Margarita, the inn’s signature cocktail, a blend of tequila, lime juice and Cointreau with champagne floated on top. In addition to bird watching, there is great whale watching here too during the winter and spring migrating seasons when pods pass along the seemingly endless stretch of uninhabited beaches here.
