Sierra de la Laguna Imposes Tourism Controls to Protect Vital Water Source
The Sierra de la Laguna Biosphere Reserve, which supplies water to 90% of La Paz and Los Cabos, exceeded its ecological limits with over 60,000 visitors in 2025. In response, environmental authorities are establishing new tourism controls to protect its fragile resources. The reserve's current management plan is outdated, prompting urgent calls to address the strain on local infrastructure.
