Once in Loreto, we will provide you with a waterproof sea bag for your gear while on the trip. If you have a lot of gear, some of it can be carried in your personal carry-on duffel bag.

We provide you with a two-person tent (one-person if you are traveling alone). This is included in your trip cost. If you bring your own sleeping bag, we will provide a waterproof sea bag for it. We can rent you sleeping bag units (sleeping bag, ground pad, ground cloth all in a waterproof sea bag) at $30.00 per unit per trip.
