Next Episode of Destination: Baja Sur is
not planed. TV Show was canceled.
For more than three decades fisheries biologist, photojournalist and TV host Bill Boyce has traveled extensively up and down the Baja California Peninsula, its stark beauty having firmly grabbed Boyce's imagination. He shares his love in this docu-reality series by taking viewers on a journey of the peninsula's southern half -- the Baja Sur -- to meet old friends, make new ones, and find adventure. A longtime Baja resident, Boyce highlights the region's world-class fishing, its Mexican culture and Spanish history, and well-known and hidden locations, all the way from beautiful Turtle Bay to bustling Cabo San Lucas.
Join host Bill Boyce in Loreto fishing with Baja fishing expert Chris Wheaton and long time "Fishin for the Mission" Tournament Director, Jim Duggins, targeting large yellowtail and a variety of grouper species. The cooking segments feature mouth watering local seafood delicacies from the Sea of Cortez.
Viewers experience Baja's most unique marine environment, magnificent Bahia Magdalena where hundreds of miles of mangrove lined shoreline supports an array of fishery diversity rarely seen anywhere on the planet. Bill fishes with Harvey Tucker and Chris Jones whose conservation ethics tell of the potential risk overfishing is having in these productive waters.
La Paz sits just minutes from islands and beaches that make it a boater's paradise. Tour the scenic "Malacon" embarcadero then the cities most popular eateries. We fish with Captain Adolfo, and Captain Chris Jones inshore, then cruise some local hide-away beaches. Take a splash to explore an undersea shipwreck, and other oceanic critters we can cross paths with.
The East Cape has several great resorts and we explore them all; larger resorts like Palmas De Cortez, to Buena Vista Beach Resort with its natural hot springs spa, and the romantic setting of Rancho Leonero. We fish with Mike Dixon and Rob Bowie of Engel Coolers, Baja writer Gary Graham and restaurateur Brian Solomon fishing blue marlin, and roosterfish in these infamous waters.
San Jose Del Cabo, the historic mission town has culturally transformed into the finest art district in all of Baja. We talk art and tour the local night life and art scene with French artist Francois Paris. We fish marlin near the Gorda Banks then happily sample the culinary skills of Tadd Chapman at his Restaurant Don Sanchez.
We enjoy the developments at the Cabo Villa Beach Resort in Cabo San Lucas, then head offshore with Chris Erickson on his 35' sport fisher, the Bad Medicine in search of striped marlin in the Marlin Capital of the World. We invite dozens of local underprivileged kids for a day of fishing to spark their interest in the fishing / tourism industry in their front yard.

Join the fun and fishing in the Los Cabos Billfish and the Bisbee Black and Blue Tournaments from the electrifying shot-gun starts, to the prolific marlin fishery found offshore. We pre-fish these events with Ray Douglas of King Sailfish Mounts, then fish Bisbee with Brian and Tawnie Walley on their 60' Hatteras, the "Reel Energy".
Los Cabos organizes international competitions for many sports. Join us in the action for the Gran Fondo International bike race, and the Ironman competition where Baja's rigors must be conquered for victory. Meet athletes relaxing at the Sheraton Hacienda Del Mar Resort, and explore the world class Koral Center facility and the Hospital H+ complex.
In terms of culinary creativity, few restaurants match the Mi Casa, Peacock, and La Panga restaurants of Los Cabos. Owner Günter and his wife Keisha scour the Mexican countryside for recipes and artifacts that make these classy establishments. Come freedive spearfishing for a culinary treat, then experience cultural Mexican celebrations: Day of the Dead, and a youthful Piñata Party.
After visiting Los Cabos, you'll want a piece of this paradise for yourself, for which we introduce you to the Quivira - Pueblo Bonita development. Enjoy lots of fishing action, and explore what else the resort has to offer; golf, creature comforts, and the resorts ambiance. Experience a baby sea turtle release that has helped rebuild this once heavily declining population.
Besides fishing, we show you other family fun activities to enjoy when the fish aren't biting. From a Pez Gato wine and jazz sunset cruise, to scuba diving Cabo Pulmo Reef, then off road motorcycling, we immerse ourselves in all that is Baja Sur. Take a night life tour of Cabo, then swim with dolphins. See the excellent charity work Grassroots Global is doing for those less fortunate in Los Cabos.
Relive the best moments captured in the shooting and production of Season One of the Destination: Baja Sur series. We show the extreme fun to be had on a fishing adventure, as well as the adventure of touring the entire Baja peninsula by car. Experience the food, adventures, and the great people we met in Season 1 and re-live its best moments.
