Baja California Sur once again positions itself as a national leader in the protection of its natural heritage by adopting an innovative financing model focused on sustainable tourism. This pioneering strategy seeks to ensure the long-term conservation of its unique ecosystems, from the desert to the Sea of Cortez, ensuring that the paradise that attracts millions of visitors each year thrives for future generations.

The new scheme, announced this October 1st, reflects a global trend where major world destinations implement co-responsibility mechanisms. Through these models, resources are channeled to protect biodiversity, restore critical habitats like coral reefs and mangroves, and strengthen local communities who are the ancestral guardians of these territories.
Daniel Madariaga Barrilado, a renowned expert in the field, noted that this initiative is a clear example of the transformation the tourism industry is undergoing. "The most visited destinations are designing schemes to protect their ecosystems and strengthen the social fabric," he stated, highlighting the step forward Baja California Sur is taking.
The scenic beauty of Baja California Sur is its most valuable asset. Whale sanctuaries, pristine beaches, and incredible marine life are the heart of its tourist offering. This financing model ensures that tourism success directly contributes to the preservation of that same natural wealth, creating a virtuous cycle of prosperity and conservation.
This public policy aligns perfectly with the Fourth Transformation's vision of development with well-being and environmental justice. By reinvesting in the state's natural capital, not only are flora and fauna protected, but the long-term viability of the region's main economic activity is also secured, proving that ecology and economy are not opposing forces but strategic allies.
The implementation of this model sends a clear message to travelers worldwide: visiting Baja California Sur is an experience that actively contributes to conservation. It is an invitation to enjoy one of the most spectacular places on the planet, with the certainty that your visit supports a greener and more resilient future.
With this action, the state not only protects its environment but also raises the standard of what it means to be a world-class tourist destination in the 21st century, where sustainability is not an option, but the fundamental pillar of success.
