Beachnsportslvr - 11-19-2013 at 01:28 AM

Heading to Gonzaga thanksgiving - not sure about hauling my double kayak down on my 4 cylinder RAV4 - are there any kayak rentals or is someone interested in renting theirs? Does not have to be for the whole time - we'll be there thurs to Sunday - hope to meet some like minded Baja campers 40-60 years to have a beer with - I'll be camping with a small group at Rancho Grande

There are no rentals. In fact....I have never seen a kayak rental in San Felipe as well.

To take your kayak would be an grand idea to do! There are a million spots between Puertecitos and San Luis Gonzaga that offers great adventure. To transport.......it is a easy ride since the highway upgrade.

Use a life jacket! Also....This time of the year it is very windy down there. Take wind shelter (tarps-tie downs for tents).

Alphonsinas has a couple they rent. Last was $10 for the day.

We hauled 2 sea kayaks on our jeep from San Felipe to Gonzaga no problem even when the road wasn't finished.

You can try and ask either Alfonsina's or Campo Beluga, just 2 miles south... Here are their cards:





Bahia San Luis Gonzaga is quite sheltered... the bigger half of the overall area (Ensenada de San Francisquito) is more exposed to wind... Have a great time... and it is paved to nearly Papa Fernandez' driveway.

I was at Campo Beluga a few weeks ago and they defiantly do not have any but Raphael seemed pretty keen on having a couple on hand in the next few months.

We'll see.
