inn sitting in La Bocana


We are headed to Europe for 4.5 months and need a sitter for our hotelito. It is 7 rooms and 8 baths.

In the past, friends stay for free and are responsible for cleaning up after guests. I am really good at it and can train! We leave first week in May and come back mid Sept, This is our SLOW season. Fishing picks up in September.

Please contact husband Les if you think you are interested.

Here is a link to the webpage I created to give you an idea of the house/hotel.

I litterally just paid my 1st month's rent for San Quintin... yesterday.
I am moving in on May 1.
I would have gladly posponed that for the summer to visit your paradise for a few months...
But maybe my best fishing friend Cory.
If I could convince my son... he is 24 and a tea totaller. Hard worker.

I know we posted runway pics for La Bocana but I searched and no luck.
Can someone please post a runway pic.
Blanca and Les have a runway...
I have a runway...
I'm getting an idea...

Oh boy, fishbuck at the helm of La Bocana Inn. How far away is the runway? I just looked, a 5,200' long runway but back in 1997, it was already rocked and ditched: N 26°49.491', W 113°39.799'



Well, it is 6 km from La Bocana Inn, plus on Google Earth, you can see rows of rocks across the runway... so sad!

I thought there was one still active down the beach by another little hotel?
I'm sure there is.

And this:

Now that there are mounds of dirt preventing planes from landing, the runway has a new use - as a motorcycle track. 

That old runway is a motocross track:coolup:

Different La Bocana, I am afraid. There are many La Bocanas in Baja... most often where a river or lagoon empties into the ocean and sometimes where a canyon opens up.
