Join us in celebrating the return of the Western Flyer to the Sea of Cortez, commemorating the historic journey of John Steinbeck and Ed Rickets 85 years ago. Eco-Alianza de Loreto, A.C., in coordination with the Ventura Sister City Association, the Western Flyer Foundation and Marina Puerto Escondido, Loreto, Baja California Sur, have planned a series of activities around this unique event. Designed to inspire and mobilize our community in the protection of the natural and cultural environment of Loreto, the activities offer a multitude of ways to engage with history and science.

The University of Notre Dame’s Institute for Latino (ILS) studies joined Eco-Alianza for a week of leadership development, cultural immersion and wildlife discovery under Eco-Alianza’s program for research, conservation, and public service (CEMA).
