Seafari/Sport fishing
All the private charters are 100% all-inclusive. Your investment covers the private selected boat, a certified captain/guide, premium activity gear (fishing rods, snorkel gear, or safety life jackets), ice, and refreshing beverages. There are zero surprise port taxes or credit card surcharges at checkout. Please note: Gratuities for your hard-working boat crew are voluntary and highly appreciated in cash at the beach. Seafari and sport fishing are 6-hours private boat expedition.
Nature rules the Sea of Cortez, and your safety is our absolute priority. If the local Port Authority (Capitanía de Puerto) closes the bay due to high winds or rough swells, we will immediately attempt to reschedule your experience for the next available slot. If rescheduling is not possible due to your travel itinerary, Deep Wind Co. will issue a 100% refund of your direct transfer booking deposit. Live wind and weather status updates will be sent directly to your WhatsApp.
Deep Wind Co. operates as a premium local concierge and professional collective. To ensure the highest level of comfort and local knowledge, we partner exclusively with independent, certified local captains and select top-tier licensed boats. This collective model allows us to curate the perfect boat and expert guide based strictly on your specific activity (Sport Fishing, Wildlife Seafari, or Spearfishing). All operations are fully covered under our standard maritime liability agreements signed during checkout.
Yes! When weather and wildlife behavior permit, you can jump in with a mask and swim. The captains strictly follow eco-friendly guidelines to ensure safe and respectful encounters with dolphins, orcas, and sea lions.
Require a minimum of 4 passengers to launch a 23-foot boat and 5 passengers in the 26-foot boat. If you are a smaller group or a solo traveler, please contact us, and we will do our best to pair you with an existing group.
The 26-foot panga is highly spacious and comfortably hosts up to 10 passengers for seafari tours and 5 for sport fishing charters.
The 23-foot panga host up to 6 passengers for seafari and 4 for sport fishing.
Stand Up Paddle/ Spearfishing
We offer both! If you want to discover the best hidden reefs and improve your technique choose our Guided Tour ( gear & guide included) and If you prefer to explore independently, you can rent only a SUP board.
La Ventana is famous for its afternoon winds. We run our SUP and Spearfishing sessions at first light (usually between 7:00 AM and 8:00 AM) because the water is like a mirror. This ensures maximum underwater visibility for snorkeling/hunting and effortless conditions for paddling before the wind picks up
No, at Deep Wind Co. safety is our priority. This is an exclusive Private Experience. You will have a dedicated instructor just for you and your companion(s), ensuring proper technique, breath-hold fundamentals, and safe gear handling.
Yes, 100%! The glassy, windless morning water of La Ventana is the absolute best environment to learn. Our guide will provide a brief beach clinic on balance and paddling technique before we enter the water, so you’ll be standing up in no time.
Kitesurf
On average, it takes 7 to 12 hours of lessons spread across 3 to 4 days to become an independent kiter. We start with kite control on the beach, move to water safety and bodydragging, and finish with board rides and assisted water sessions.
The famous thermal wind in La Ventana typically builds up around noon. Our Kitesurf sessions run exclusively in the afternoons, between 12:30 PM and 5:00 PM, when the breeze is most stable and consistent.
Absolutely. La Ventana is ranked as one of the top places in the world to learn because of its unique geography. We are located in a wide, rock-free sandy bay, and our famous wind blows parallel to the shoreline (side-shore). This unique combination naturally keeps you close to the short and you have the ultimate safety net while learning.
Yes, we provide the complete setup: kites, boards, harnesses, radio, helmets, impact vests, and wetsuits. You only need to bring your swimwear, sunscreen and sunglasses.
We use advanced radio communication systems built directly into your helmet. Your instructor will be talking to you and guiding you through every single step in real time, even when you are riding downwind. You are always connected, safe, and supported.
