Still thinking about a short trip from San Diego in late april/early may down to Ensenada. Can you buy a weeks worth of Mexican liability insurance? Any crime...
we used to buy short term insurance just before crossing border - take the toll road and there should be no problem haven't ever stayed in a campground in...
I live in San Felipe so I know northern Baja. You not only can - but must - buy liability insurance - by the day, week, month, whatever No crime or shakedowns...
I agree that Estero Beach is a wonderful place - BUT you can't use the pool if you're staying in the RV park. Not sure about the beaches. Actually it was more...
Assuming you are adults, I don't think you would want to use the pool. Full - and I mean full - of kids, and very noisy. Another reason that I don't like...
Spent the month of January in San Felipe in my 34' Safari motorhome. It was our first visit to San Felipe and we had a great time. Crossed the border at...
Glad Jere had such a good time in San Felipe. But I was surprised he didn't mention our huge camerones (shrimp), our pride and joy. Usually 7-8 to a lb....
The Green Angel trucks are still in operation and patrol regularly from Mexicali to San Felipe. Their services are free - you merely pay for materials such...
Yes - I forgot to mention that I brought back 5 kilos of "grande" (large) shrimp in my freezer. I paid $16/kilo which translates to around $7.00/lb. I got them...
I didn't notice any Green Angel trucks on my trip but I had a very positive experience with the highway patrol. I had some problems with my sand rail trailer...
Cingular - or whatever AT&T calls itself this month - has sole American contract with this area - and has had for many years.....but it is expensive. ...
I know you folks have been talking about Baja but my wife and I came down Hwy 15 (toll road) from Nogales to Puerto Vallarta last month and saw numerous Green ...

Well I don't mean to come across as rude, but sadly the area between Ensenada and Rosarito (the gold coast) has so completely gone to shit that I would rather...
... Green Angels are the best! I've run out of gas, given them 200 pesos and a gas can to have them return 2 hours later with 5 gallons and all the change. ...
All the reports of the inadequacies of camping facilities between Ensenada and Tijuana are completely true. San Felipe is not far behind, losing its best...
... Drive down to San Carlos, adjacent to Guaymas. Best to come south through Nogales (Tucson), however, as it allows you more travel on US highways. It's a...
Michael - How long a drive (time-wise) is it from Nogales to San Carlos? How busy is the border crossing each way? Thanks. One tough part about Rocky Point is...

Thanks - We have been caught in Sunday traffic at the Lukeville crossing - over 3 hours to go 6km - pretty painful way to end a nice weekend. Want to find a...
I forgot to add, neither Rocky Point nor San Carlos are the REAL Mexico. San Felipe USED to be when I went there 20 years ago but sounds like it's wall-to-wall...

Good points. We have made numerous flights to Cabo, and a handful of rv trips to Rocky Point, but nothing really in between. We did drive from Cabo up to Todos...

Only way to avoid the long wait getting out of Mexico is to be there very early in the AM. This also makes the traffic on the highways back to Phoenix...
