PLAYA
SANTISPAC |
13 miles south of Mulege at Km. 113. |
|
This large, beautiful bay is the first beach you'll see
while heading south down the Baja Highway from Mulege. As the crystal clear waters and
white sandy beaches explode into view, you might be saying "this is it!". While
Playa Santispac is definately a great place to hang out and enjoy the Baja sun, it is also
the largest of the bays, and always has a lot going on. Well worth a visit, but don't
forget...more intimate beaches await you further south! Toilets / showers / palapas /
restaurant / busy in season / tents welcome. |
|
POSADA
CONCEPCION |
Off the Transpeninsular blacktop at Km. 112, 14 miles
south of Mulege. |
|
A nice moderate size beach in close proximity to several
offshore islands. Easy access for campers and R.V.'s. The beach here is good for launching
boats, inflatables, kayaks, etc. Just a hop, skip, and a jump to Playa Santispac (to the
north), in case you need a good restaurant! 13 sites / full hook-ups / flush toilets /
showers / tennis / tents welcome. |
|
PLAYA
EL BURRO |
16 miles south of Mulege, off the Baja Highway at Km.
109. |
|
This is a great beach, downright beautiful! It's not a very
large beach, which makes it very nice. If you are one of the lucky ones to capture
a spot here, it will be hard to leave. Palapas / toilets / tents welcome / boat
launching over sand / inexpensive. |
|
PLAYA
COYOTE |
Cruise off of the Baja blacktop at Km. 108. |
|
A good beach for campers and R.V.'s, just take it slow over
the access road. This is a dirt (and crushed shell) road, but it is firm and wide enough
for most any rig. Road goes to the right (south) for about one half mile, then opens up to
a beautiful cove with a nice sandy beach! The hot ticket here is to capture a spot under
one of the beautiful palm trees, or to find a spot at the very south end where it is nice
and private. |
|
PLAYA
BUENAVENTURA |
Right off the Baja Blacktop at Km.94.5. |
|
Not a whole bunch of room here for camping...most of the
space on this beautiful little beach has been set aside for the hotel / restaurant / bar
set up. Still, there are three almost new palapas sitting right on the beach, just waiting
for the discriminating Baja traveler. Hot showers are available for a minimal price,
bathrooms are free. Quiet, beautiful, nice! |
|
PLAYA
FIESTA |
Slip of the Baja Highway at Km. 92.5. |
|
A secret beach tucked in behind the mangroves, offering just
enough space for you and a few close friends. If you get lonely, the path at the south end
connect to Playa Requeson. |
|
PLAYA
REQUESON |
27 miles south of Mulege, at Km. 93.5 |
|
Two beautiful bays connected by a spit of sand at low tide.
When the tide is out, you can walk to the island just offshore for additional exploring
opportunities! If this beautiful looks familiar, you've probably seen it on a post card,
in a picture, or on a vacation poster. There's plenty of room here for everyone to get
along, but this great beach is nowhere near as big as its famous sister Playa Santispac
further north. The road at the south end cuts across to another beautiful (but smaller)
beach, Playa La Perla. Palapas are available for $4, camping spots for $3, and the pit
toilets are free. (Thank you very much!) |
|
PLAYA
LA PERLA |
A quick zip off of the Baja Highway at Km. 92. |
|
The beach itself is 1/2 mile down a good dirt road, and an
easy trot for R.V.'s. This small, crescent shaped beach offers a lower camping area near
the water's edge, and a slightly raised camping area to the north, offering spectacular
views of the Sea of Cortez! The beach road to the north cuts across to La Requeson beach.
Camping spots are $2 per night, and cool palapa huts run $3 and $4 per night. |
|
PLAYA ARMENTA |
Just below Baja Highway One at Km.91.5 |
|
An easy dirt road runs you along the base of the bluffs at
water's edge for about 3/4 of a mile, leading you to this beautiful 200 yard long beach.
The road is okay for larger R.V.'s, as long as you take it s-l-o-w. There are large rocks
at the south end of the beach, which make for good snorkeling, and the water just offshore
is nice and shallow. Camping is $2 per nite, and renting a beach palapa is $3 per night.
Pit toilets are available. Track down Don Raoul or one of his partners for camping space
information. |

PLAYA
PARDIDA |
Located off of the Baja blacktop at Km. 87. |
|
|
Most Baja campers and R.V.'s don't get this far south on
Bahia Concepcion without falling in love with one of the beaches further north. Those who
do make it this far have found a little jewel of a beach with few, if any, crowds. Easy
access off of the highway. No services, just you, the sun, the sand, and the Sea of
Cortez! |
