From La Paz to San Diego

Volume 1 follows the symbolic whale migration north from the Sea of Cortez, Baja California, along coastal Baja and the offshore islands, to Southern California waters.

Along the way, the book explores:

  • The marine life of Baja California

  • The migration paths of humpback and gray whales

  • Encounters above and below the surface

  • Historic fishing and maritime communities

  • Kelp forests, reefs, lagoons, and coastal habitats

  • The changing relationship between people and the Pacific

  • The risks facing marine mammals and ocean ecosystems

  • The responsibility that comes with witnessing the sea’s beauty

Baja to Bering book and short film series follow an approximately 12,000nm (round- trip) migration corridor, between Baja California and Alaska’s Bering Sea—a route traveled by whales through one of the most ecologically diverse regions on Earth.
