La Paz, Mexico
These photos are from a 2015 SCUBA trip to La Paz, Mexico, which is on the eastern side of the Baja Peninsula. There aren’t a lot of photos from this trip because I was mostly filming during the dives. We spent 3 days on an island and 3 days venturing out from La Paz. All of the diving was from a boat.

Geology
Baja California Peninsula has a beautiful and compelling landscape. According to Wikipedia, the peninsula was once a part of the North American Plate, the tectonic plate of which mainland Mexico remains a part. About 12 to 15 million years ago the East Pacific Rise began cutting into the margin of the North American Plate, initiating the separation of the peninsula. Spreading within the Gulf of California consists of short oblique rifts or ridge segments connected by long northwest trending transform faults, which together comprise the Gulf of California Rift Zone. The Baja California Peninsula is now part of the Pacific Plate and is moving with it away from the East Pacific Rise in a north northwestward direction.
