Mulege recommendations?
We had originally planned to go straight to Bahia Conception but found a little slice of paradise here in Mulege that is close enough to go to the
beach for the day and not crowded. Suggestions on places to eat, drink, and play in the area? We have a Jeep for exploring. Gracias!

Try the pig roast at the Serenidad hotel on Saturday evenings. Also the El Patron restaurant and bar at the end of the road north side of the river
where it empties into the Sea of Cortez.

El PATRON, MULEGE:
If El Patron is closed, the odds are the Casa de Pancho Villa restaurant is open, it is passed just before reaching El Patron, on a hill above the
road... it is excellent and inexpensive.

Danny's tacos down past the church, wonderful beef, shrimp and fish tacos, bean soup to die for, and on Saturdays they serve nothing but carnitas
(pork) you can order by the pound if you like (or just tacos), and go early because they usually run out by early afternoon.
Almost forgot, ask if they have flan. Home made and as good as it gets... IF Juan isn't too hung over to make it. El Yumm-o!

Thanks for the recommendations!
C20 - it's called Hacienda La Habana now. No website. We found on The Baja Camping Book.

Casa de Pancho Villa was fanstastic but I think is no longer in business. That woman really made you feel at home and has a heart of gold.
There is a cart in the town square that sells tortas that are fantastic.
If you want to practice your spanish , there is a bar right across from the arch with two pool tables where tourists rarely go. The locals have been
amazingly friendly every time I have gone in.

Three2... if you use Campendium I found it there with a recent review.... Ray’s was an excellent restaurant; Ray died under mysterious
circumstances....Yes, Mulege is a great find & looking for more from you about it..

Restaurant Dony has the best shrimp salad IN THE WORLD.
It's so good that I don't order one anywhere else because it's such a let down.
What I'm doing at work is so secret, even I don't know what I'm doing!
One should believe in God, because even Google doesn't know everything.

Double-ditto on Dony's. Be sure to go for desayunos and order the juevos divorciados...... decadent.

Dony’s for me, has changed.... Not to stir the pot, but I think that they now cater more to the gringo tourism .. And that style of meal &
associated pricing....Years ago when you sat on the sidewalk stools it was a more traditional Mexican restaurant.... But times change... But you never
know unless you check it out personally, I’m done checking it out....

Not sure how far you want to go in your Jeep but for a day trip you could head west out of town and at Rancho Las Cuevitas take a right and go to the
Mission Guadalupe ruins. I understand the road is open to San Jose de Magdalena and on to Hwy 1 south of San Bruno. I'm sure David K or some of the
Mulege off roaders could provide you a map and directions. Beautiful country back there.
Another interesting trip would be the same route but turn down the San Raymundo arroyo road to the coast La Ballena then south to San Juanico and on
to La Purisima. You could stay at the hotel in La Purisima or drive out to Hwy 1 at KM60 and back to Mulege.

That opening picture in the thread must be Rays old place. A very attractive looking RV campground. The road in there from Mulege was a powdered dusty
mess to drive. Has that changed?

Wasn't too bad of a drive out. Glad we followed the signs and directions from Baja Camping book vs. Google trying to kill us again.

Has anyone gone to the La Trinidad cave paintings lately? An older book mentioned you could drive up to the ranch and pay to have them guide you. I
met Salvador (and read the other threads that mention him) in the town square and he offered to take us but it seemed a little spendy and we usually
like to do self-directed tours.

About 150m SW of the arches, is a fish taco place. It is half llantera and half taco stand. They make fresh Ceviche on Sundays. The best in town.
