The Best Place to Store Your Boat or RV Near Loreto Airport

Loreto, Baja California Sur is one of the most sought-after destinations for boaters and RV travelers in all of Mexico. The Sea of Cortez — often called the "Aquarium of the World" by Jacques Cousteau — offers world-class fishing, snorkeling, and kayaking right at Loreto's doorstep. And the open roads of Baja are legendary among RV enthusiasts who make the journey south each season.

But with all that adventure comes a practical question: where do you store your boat or RV when you're not using it?

For visitors and residents alike, By The Airport Storage offers the most convenient and secure boat and RV storage in Loreto — located right off Carretera al Aeropuerto, just minutes from Loreto International Airport.

Why Loreto Is a Hub for Boaters and RV Travelers

Boating on the Sea of Cortez

The waters around Loreto are protected by the Loreto Bay National Marine Park, one of the largest marine reserves in Mexico. The park encompasses five islands — Coronado, Carmen, Danzante, Monserrat, and Santa Catalina — each offering pristine anchorages, snorkeling, and wildlife viewing.

Fishing is exceptional year-round, with dorado, yellowtail, roosterfish, and marlin among the most sought-after species. Many boaters keep their vessels in Loreto for months at a time, flying in and out between trips.

RV Travel on the Baja Peninsula

The Transpeninsular Highway (Mexico Highway 1) runs the length of the Baja Peninsula, and Loreto sits roughly at its midpoint. It's a natural stopping point for RV travelers making the full Baja run, and many choose to base themselves in Loreto for weeks or months to explore the surrounding region.

The challenge for both groups is the same: when you're not on the water or the road, you need a safe, affordable place to leave your rig.

What to Look for in Boat and RV Storage

Not every storage facility is equipped to handle the size and weight of boats and RVs. Here's what matters when evaluating your options:

Size Capacity

Boats on trailers and large RVs can easily exceed 30 or 40 feet in length. Make sure the facility has spaces that can actually accommodate your rig — and ask about pull-through access so you're not trying to back a 40-foot trailer into a tight spot.

Security

You're leaving a significant investment behind. Look for perimeter fencing, a controlled gate, and on-site management. A facility that's staffed and monitored is far preferable to an unattended lot.

Sun and Weather Protection

Loreto's climate is generally dry and sunny — which is great for outdoor activities but hard on vehicles in storage. UV exposure degrades rubber seals, fades paint and upholstery, and can damage fiberglass and gel coat on boats. Covered storage significantly extends the life of your vessel or RV.

Proximity to the Airport

If you're flying in and out of Loreto between trips, storage close to the airport is a major convenience. You can drop off or pick up your boat or RV on the way to or from the terminal without a long detour.

Flexible Access

Your schedule may change. A facility with responsive staff and flexible access hours makes it easy to get to your vehicle when you need it.

By The Airport Storage: Loreto's Best Boat and RV Storage

We built By The Airport Storage with exactly these needs in mind. Our facility at Carr. al Aeropuerto de Loreto 333 is designed to accommodate the full range of boats, RVs, and trailers that Loreto's visitors and residents bring to the area.

What We Accommodate

We're located right off the main airport road — Carretera al Aeropuerto — making us the most convenient storage option for travelers flying in and out of Loreto International Airport. Drop off your rig on the way to the terminal, and pick it up the moment you land.

Tips for Storing Your Boat or RV in Loreto

For Boaters

Flush your engine with fresh water before storage to remove salt and prevent corrosion

Disconnect the battery or connect a marine battery tender

Cover the boat — even in covered storage, a quality boat cover adds an extra layer of protection

Drain all water systems — bilge, livewells, and freshwater tanks

Document the condition with photos before drop-off

For RV Owners

Retract all slide-outs before storage to protect seals and mechanisms

Cover your tires — UV damage to RV tires is a real concern in Loreto's climate

Turn off propane at the tank and inspect seals before your next trip

Empty and prop open the refrigerator to prevent mold

Check roof seals — Loreto's heat accelerates seal degradation

Seasonal Storage: A Smart Option for Snowbirds

Many of our customers are snowbirds — travelers from the US and Canada who spend the winter months in Loreto and return north for the summer. Rather than making the long drive back with their boat or RV, they store it with us and fly home.

This approach saves significant time and wear on the vehicle, and means your rig is ready and waiting when you return for the next season. We offer flexible monthly storage with no long-term commitment required.
