ATM in Tecate

Can anyone tell me if there is an ATM machine at the bank just across the border in Tecate? If not, any ATMs conveniently located in Tecate or enroute to Ensensada? Thank you.

3 blocks down after you cross there is a bank on the corner. They have a ATM machine.

They also have a good parking lot with a guard.

You can get pesos on the US side next to the CHP weigh station, and maybe not get your account ripped off. Or go to the Costco in Chula Vista.

Hmmm....where is the CHP weigh station relative to the Tecate border crossing? Is there an ATM machine there? Or a foreign exchange dealer?

Thanks for the info.

You will do fine in Tecate. The ATM Fred recommended is in the town square. Find a place to park and check it out. Tecate is a cool town. Relax. It's easy.

Edit - There are more ATM machines in the area so don't worry about that either.

No worries whatsoever. I am very relaxed traveling in Baja or other parts of the world for that matter. I have been using ATMs internationally for years.

I was just looking for a convenient ATM near the Tecate border.

Didn't mean to imply otherwise. Have a great trip.

Thank you kindly. Can't wait.
