New Development in La Ribera
This is from the Baja Pone Express:
Cabo Riviera "The new marina and golf course in La Ribera"
Cabo Riviera is a master planned development, which encompasses 334 hectares located in La Ribera. The master plan calls for a 18 hole plus additional
9 hole Pete Dye Signature golf course, full service marina, and two 5 star resort complexes.
Pete Dye has been voted by Business Week and golf digest as one of the premier golf course architects of all time, landing nine designs on Golf
Digest's list of America's greatest courses. The resort group is "Related Companies" out of New York and Florida
www.related.com . The marina will house 350 channel waterfront lots, 36 private beachfront lots with yacht moorings, as well as an overnight/day
use marina. Dry dock facilities will be available for boat launching, storage and maintenance.
The marina, golf course, and resort hotels have projected completion date of three years. The permits are in place and heavy equipment has been
arriving with anticipation for construction to commence next month.
The developer did release 60 channel lots for reservations, which were sold out, however another 15 lots were released with the same early bird
incentives. Many of our clients took advantage of this opportunity as did Kimberly and I. If you are interested in reserving a marina lot, these same
discounts will apply on the few channel lots that may be available. If you are interested in seeing the diagram of the proposed marina please go to
http://www.bajabeachinvestments.com/Cabo_Riveria_Marina/page... . This rendering is not the final layout as a few changes are still in the works.
As an owner of marina of golf course property, you will be entitled to discounts on the marina services and golf privileges. With over $100 million in
infrastructure, this development will be one of the well conceived projects in all of Baja. There is actually a planned employee housing area which
will enable the development to accommodate their work force.
If you have questions regarding the Cabo Riveria or would like to inquire about purchasing a marina channel lot, I would encourage you to contact me
directly via email or my cell phone

Completion of development projects predictions in Mexico should be part of a comedy act.
Looking here at Loreto Bay, with a 12 year, 6000 home completion estimate prediction. First phase, after 4 years, 300 homes, not even close to half
finished.

anyone who thinks the east cape will not be developed is a fool.
it will and sooner than later to relieve pressure and prices at the cape which is red hot.
there are large parcels being assembled everywhere and planning goes on.
just because LB isn't fairing well has no bearing on other sites.
i love the east cape and hope to live there part time one day - and at a nice development would be fine.

In Palmas Bay, where they will build the new marina/hotel/golf complex the seven existing fishing resorts struggle in the winter (and in the heat of
the summer) to stay up and open and staffed. This last year was slim pickins for them as Cabo and La Paz tried to stay at par. In La Ribera the 10
to 25 kts of wind from November to April will put a large dent in their balance sheet from fishing/golfing/marina (yachties won't pay $1500 a month to
be bounced around in their slips). There might be years with big potential for more tourists but I can assure you there are no years here without
sizzling summers and wind-whipped winters. We like it just the way it is but it will be developed, some will be profitable, others will not. The
taxistas are the unknown ringer in this thing = $80 taxi one way from the airport at SJDC and soon to go up and up.

Dark days.
Not unexpected.
But nonetheless dark.

Actually, I was visiting Rancho Buena Vista in Los Barriles last week and there were new investors who partnered to advance redevelopment of Rancho
Buena Vista's 500 acres and also to develop a property equally large in the area near La Ribera. I don't know if it is the same project as the one
implied in this message. The newly formed group, pledged to make a nice resort that would cater to a broad range of people, including famlies and not
outprice itself or close its doors to visitors. Its hard to know whether their words are in line with their actions but it seems like good intentions
learned from experiences.
La Ribera is a nice place that receives strong nearly onshore el norte and thermal winds in winter making it great for kiteboarding and windsurfing
with large breaking wind swell waves.

Directly from their web site!
"The East Cape of the Sea of Cortez has long been know for world class bill fishing but without a Marina to harbor larger sport fishing boats. Cabo
Riviera will solve this problem with a new Marina and Golf resort located in La Ribera, BCS, Mexico. Over 400 channel lots will provide waterfront
moorings for home buyers along with two five star resorts as anchor tenants."
Great, apparently all of those 28-32 foot sportfishing boats which have been moored off shore during the fishing seasons for the last 30 years are not
considered "larger sport fishing boats". I guess I will have to run wakes with Paul Allen and Larry Ellison to catch my dinner.....

Anyone who's familiar with the beach in the vicinity of this planned development knows that it is a very dynamic stretch of sand which changes each
year as storms and wind reshape the shore line. Additionaly, the very large arroyo to the North is prone to flooding. After this years hurricane the
rising waters of this arroyo swept right into the area where the golf course and homes would be. It will be interesting to see how they solve these
engineering issues.

Very,very sad!.........Osprey is right.....La Ribera is one of the last authentic Mexican towns existing in Baja Sur. It is where many of the working
class Mexicans can still afford to live and own property and have familys. This will almost for sure change this. The south end of Las Palmas Bay has
to be one of the most extreem wind holes that exists in all of Baja.It is the absolute worse place to attempt to build a new marina. And as Cardon Man
states, the conditions of the shifting sand bar and the consistant flooding of not one, but two major arroyos, is going to play out severely with new
expensive houses washed out to sea each summer during hurricane season. Beleive me, as I have spent many winters beach camping in this area and
kayacking and sailing and surfing this area at all times of the year. Any large scale development is a huge mistake. ++C++

Looks like it is actually possible to have a "channel lot" without the necessity of investing!
I love being able to enjoy the space and leave no trace! |

Classic shot Peloncito. That's a wet and muddy stretch of road after rains... to say the least.
I'm sure they will push to pave that road but ...what about containing that massive arroyo? Seems like it will take a very serious effort and lots of
cash to tame that thing!

That's a good question. I may be wrong but I bet that stuff goes right into the Sea.
That area is pretty unique with lots of fresh water seeping into the Sea and even some fresh/brackish lagoons. Bait fish and juvenille game fish of
all kinds thrive there and probably even spawn there. Shore line developments, marinas, and breakwaters can be harmfull to those kinds of enviroments.
