A place nomads wouldn't like


Who wants to drive south of Bahia Asuncion on a dirt road to find miles and miles of this.



And that is only looking in one direction---here is the other way



What, no condos, no people, no hotels?? Who could like that---gees, not even a taco stand.

Then there are those dunes



The dunes with no off-road tire tracks, no empty beer cans, just the plain old dune plants with a few people and animal track.

And if that is not enough, what ever happened to brown sand?



A white sandy beach---how awful

Then there is this very small fishing village---shucks, they don't even have a disco!



And who wants to watch the fishermen going out to sea through the rocks and over the high surf??







No, it is just a place nomads would not like----guess we will just have to spend more time exploring that area so it does not get lonely.

Dunes from my front porch 1966


If you remember the one I posted in 1982 with a basically flat beach...........this is what it looked like before a ton of folks and off road vehicles leveled it.

Angels Camp just south of La Salina looked most like your fishing village...........boy do things change.

We're bringing our 3 seater JETSKI to get out to the islands for fishing and snorkeling and 2 QUADS so we can ride south to Abreojos for a day and just generally explore the area.

Please don't hate us because we have these toys and want to use them responsibly in Baja.

Just got back from San Quintin last night and used the quads to get from Socorrito to Cabo San Quintin (north side of bay entrance, check your map) 80 miles round trip, no problems, best scenery in Northern Baja.

Stopped in at Old Mill, Don Eddies, Campo Lorenzo, Old Pier, Jardines, Cemetary, Pedregal (stood on FISHBUCK'S lot), ate Oysters on the half shell, saw whales, did it all.

BajaWarrior:

Nah, I don't hate you, but, I sure hate the noise your toys make. Isn't there a way to make those things quieter? Especially the JetSki noise, they sound like a hive of P***ed off bees. IMHO, nothing much worse than being on a quiet beach reading, and having to listen to that noise back and forth, back and forth. :no: I rue the day when we have to have isolated beachs become so dense that signs will go up prohibiting all of our fun (yours included) I just wish (and believe) in this modern day of techies that something could/can be done about the noise polution before you and others lose the fun of your Quads and JetSkis..........Maybe? you and other "Toy" guys/gals might start asking for "neighbor friendly" toys before it's too late? Just an idea...........Have fun!
