Does some one drive lately from San Felipe to Bahia de los Angeles? How is the road conditions?
I'm planing to go to Gerrero Negro, whale watching on March, which one is the best option Pacific road or Cortez road?
I really appreciate your answer and any advise you can share me.
Thank you

Drove it over Christmas pulling a tent trailer. Slow and bumpy, lots of bypasses for the washed out bridges. Just give yourself eight hours from SF
and you will be fine, it won't take that long but that's what we planed for. I still think its better then going down the other way, it's more of an
adventure.

I drove it down and back in the last week. Pot holes and some detours but fine. All the road destruction is pretty well marked but sometimes it is
right around the corner and you don't see it until you're on it. Not many of those and still way better than the other side.
The dirt south of Bahia is good too. They are doing a lot of work in the vados replacing the concrete.

"The best option" depends on your criteria of the "best". Hwy 1 is easier on a car, Hwy 5 is shorter. Time on the road is about the same. Usual
warning applies to either route - no traveling after dark.

I ran it yesterday and the day before. Bypasses are clearly marked, although difficult to locate after dark. Drive cautiously.
