We will be heading south from Rosarito near JR's at Sunrise on the 24th. We plan to spend the 24th at Baja Cactus hotel. Then poss. off to Gonzaga bay. Have to be in San Felipe on the 28th mid day. Any one have some intresting side tirps for us. Must see or do's. Well have a two man kayak with us extra fuel and such. Camping gear incase we need it. Also my husband has GPS. Any suggestion would be Great. Well be in my white Subaru Outback If you see us flag us down well share a cold one. Thanks for any help. Cyndarouh:bounce::bounce:

Glad to hear you guys are heading south although, sorry you can't make it a little farther.
Hola to Lance and hope all's well in the mountains.
Depending on the wind, Punta Baja/ Agua Blanca can be a good place to get fish and stuff.
The area around Punta San Carlos has some pretty neat scenery and friendly fishermen as well as a windsurfing camp.
Enjoy mi Amiga y hasta luego.

Gee... a loaded question!

Side trips between El Rosario and Gonzaga Bay (see my GPS web page to find these places):

Las Pintas Fossil Grotto

Mision San Fernando (and petroglyphs, 1 mile beyond)

El Marmol onyx mine (and El Vocan onyx geyser and springs, 4 miles beyond)

Near Catavina (2 mi. north of) is the painted cave. Also, Rancho Santa Ynez, a mile past Catavina for food and camping.

Coco's Corner http://vivabaja.com/coco

Green Pools and Turquoise Mine http://vivabaja.com/wayno

Anyway, that's a sampling! See photos of these sites by using my Index: http://community-2.webtv.net/drdrip/index

Get a copy of The Baja Adventure Book by Peterson. It's great on sidetrips of all kinds.:light:

Why JR!? Is that actually ess spahn yoll that you are using so fluently? You must be taking a break from your bamboo gerbil tube carving to "bone up" on the language of the land that you have resided in for the last ten years! My hat, were I to wear one, would you off to you - me ah mee go!! :lol::lol::moon::moon:
