I’m preparing to plan a trip down to Baja for some overlanding later in the year. I’m a bit overwhelmed trying to map out locations, fuel (diesel), as well as getting in all the views. It’s likely be an about a week long trip starting out of San Diego. I’d like to do some beach fishing and my dad would like to fly out for a couple days to either do beach or boat fishing. Does it matter as much which side of the peninsula? We want to eat the fish and I’ve seen you can catch halibut and grouper in the bay but idk. I want to do some mountain driving but would also love to see the mountains at the same time as fishing could my dad would absolutely love that. We are fine staying in the northern half but not opposed to going more south. Any help on which side to fish would be amazing but we are also after views too

¡Hola! Espero no molestar a nadie, y si es así me disculpo.

Estoy realizando una investigación sobre las experiencias de hombres jóvenes en México que se identifican con la comunidad Incel o se sienten relacionados con ella.

Busco voluntarios mexicanos de entre 18 y 29 años para una entrevista individual por Zoom (aprox. 90 minutos). La participación es anónima y con fines exclusivamente académicos.

Hey Baja! My husband and I will be doing volunteer work in a little town off of Highway 3. We have Sentri and have to enter the US in Otay (last time my husband spent 5 hours crossing through Tecate). The volunteer day usually ends mid afternoon/early evening. How is this route in regards to safety?

Thank you for your input!

**Possible juvenile smoothhound (**Mustelus sp.) observed while snorkeling at Chileno Bay, Cabo San Lucas, mid-July, ~9:00 a.m., in 1–3 ft of water over coral. Approximately six individuals, each occupying separate areas. Uniform silvery gray, stocky body, broad pectoral fins, apparent heterocercal tail, slow-moving or resting.

Anyone see or hear of anything like this?

I’m getting married next year. Does anyone know if a wedding planner in Baja Sur? Looking for 2-3 recommendations.

Thank you,

Looking for advice about travel in Baja with kids.

I'm trying to get a realistic understanding of the safety and logistics of this itinerary for young children:

• Border crossing through Mexicali
• Ensenada (1 night)
• Bahía de los Ángeles (2–3 nights camping)
• San Felipe (1 night)
• Return to the U.S.

Most of the trip would involve camping and driving rather than staying in resorts or hotels.

For those who know this route well:

• Would you consider it appropriate for children this young?
• Are there stretches without reliable cell service or Wi-Fi?
• Are there any safety concerns (road conditions, remoteness, medical access, weather, etc.) that parents should know about?
• If your own young children were on this trip, what precautions would you consider essential?

I'm looking for firsthand experience rather than opinions based on news reports. Thanks in advance.

I’m in scorpion bay now and want to drive to Punta Abreojos next. I’m in a 2003 Toyota Sequoia 4wd. Different maps give me different directions but none seem to account for 4wd capabilities. One map says go south a little, then all the way out to highway 1 and then north. Another says I can go north, stay along the coast pretty closely for about 2/3 of the way, then all the way out to Highway 1 and then back out to the coast. They both seem to be trying to avoid San Ignacio lagoon but that lagoon goes less than halfway to Highway one. I would imagine there have to be some dirt roads that go around the lagoon without schlepping all the way to the highway. Not sure if the surface area north of the lagoon is marshy, deep sand, super rocky or that dried, caked mud that’s soft, wet and deep underneath. (Zip it, this is a PG rated text). I can see some dirt roads on satellite images but it’s not clear how far they go. I’m flying solo but have a Starlink and am fairly experienced at getting unstuck, but that only goes so far. Thanks for any insights.

Tengo planeado ir a Tijuana porque tengo la cita de la visa allá, ambas citas son a las 8 de la mañana y estoy viendo si me voy en la madrugada para estar temprano allá, o ir un día antes y quedarme en un airbnb, planeo ir en auto sedan pequeño, pero no sé si es seguro ir en la madrugada por todo el tramo hacia Tijuana, qué opinan?

Hello, I'm going surfing in Baja Norte (around Rosarito) next week and was wondering if there are any snorkeling spots or tidepools near there. Staying at Gaviotas. Thank you!

Experiencias utilizando el Tag, para las Carretera de La Rumorosa, la del Hongo y Libramiento Tecate. Me parece que el TAG sería mas eficiente y me ayudaría a cruzar más rápido por el carril de la caseta exclusiva; se supone que cuesta 94 pesos, según la página de CAPUFE. O realmente es irrelevante y solo ayuda a no traer tantas moneditas en el carro
