GUERRERO NEGRO

The town of Guerrero Negro is just a regular Baja town, really, but it’s still a place you’ll want to stop.  MUST-DO: Whale tours!

SAN IGNACIO

San Ignacio is a tiny, sleepy town halfway between Guerrero Negro and Bahia Concepcion. The town is home to a beautiful historic mission that is open to the public.

Bahía Concepción

This gorgeous bay features bright blue water and is dotted with small islands that are just begging to be explored.

La Paz

La Paz is a popular stop among RV travelers. Do not miss out going on tours, especially swimming with whale sharks and sea lions!

Playa Los Cerritos

We enjoyed hiking to the Old Port of Todos Santos, exploring Cabo San Lucas a little, and enjoying quality coffee beverages from the super close-by Cafelix.
