Miramar Adventures

We are an adventure travel company, based and registered in Seattle - Washington, the mecca of sea kayaking in the US. Our specialty is guided sea kayaking and whale watching adventures in Baja California, Mexico. Miramar Adventures started with Florin Botezatu the founder of the company, and his idea of a small sea kayaking guiding outfit. He has... over thirty years of outdoor adventure experience in sea kayaking, rock climbing, and trekking and has led expeditions through Europe, Baja, and the US. He has extensive sea kayaking experience in the Sea of Cortez and Pacific Northwest.
