Mexico / Report on a Recent Trip / Bahia Asuncion, BCS

Recently returned from a wonderful BAJA discovery trip to Bahia
Asuncion! Our search for San Diego weather (w/o the Marine layer!) at
Mexico prices led us to the 4900' dirt strip just East of the fishing
town of Bahia Asuncion (BSU). Our most accommodating and generous host
Shari Bondi and husband & Ecco/Fishing Guide Juan Arce Marron were
patiently waiting for our C-182 arrival from Tucson (via Hermosillo
AOE MMHO). After 100+ degrees in Tucson & MMHO the 80+ degrees at the
desert strip was almost "balmy". After a dusty 10+ min. drive w/AC on
high my wife was shocked when rolling the windows down on the "main
street" discovered she needed a sweatshirt in the 65 degree ocean
breeze! Clearly this was a great find for those of us seeking a COOL
escape from "Summer in the Desert" at bargain $$ in a quiet delightful
little town of full time fishermen, American & Canadian "Ex Pats" &
retirees. Shari & Juan Arce own/operate the Blow Hole B&B right on
the water $60/nite and rent several small houses from $50 - $90/
couple. We had a very nice little 2 story 3BR 1BA Beach House w/
"killer view" upper deck over looking a 15+ mi. "walking" beach w/o
ANY development. We walked to the grocery & small local restaurants!
Not the place for the "Cabo Resorts & Hard Party Crowd" but what a
great place to "chill" & explore the real Mexico! Best for LR tanks OR
auto fuel capable.
Check it out! Info & pics www.bahiaasuncion.com or Local

Shari Bondi at sharibondy@gmail.com , You can tell her we're coming
back! Tony & Kerry"

We had alot of fun with Tony & Kerry...she thought I was making it up that it was so cool here...temp wise that is!!! It was pretty hot(for me) at
the strip and I told her it was at least 10 degrees cooler in town...they loved it...thanks for posting this Mike and for the referral.

you betcha!
you are on the BPI now.
which unit did they have?
shari - 6-25-2011 at 07:56 AM
Keri is a beach walker so they were happy at the Beach House (in Hawaii) as it is still pretty cool out here in Alaska (the blowhole)

the temp differences between Hawaii and Alaska are just amazing ... those monikers are not without merit !!
