Your favorite baja beach?


This beach is in Bahia de los Angeles. The wreck in the photo has S.S. Minnow spray painted on it. Anyone know the history of this wreck? We kayaked there from Camp Gecko while in Bahia last spring...

The story goes...


MANY years ago a young lady named Annie bought the boat from Papa Diaz, had it taken out to the beach at a very high tide and planted there to be used as her home. She never returned. It was once a VERY nice boat, years ago. Some call it "Crazy Annie's Beach."

Could Annie have planned on climbing over that rocky ridge every time she went to the mini-mart?

A little spot we camped at last June. Somewhere between San Antonio del Mar and Erendira.

Playa Isla Bargo (Caruso Beach)...among our favorites


accessible by boat..this secluded beach is a great place to clam, beachcomb, or just plain relax. But picking a favorite beach in Baja is like choosing your favorite pizza ... even if it's bad, it's still good.

Our 'least' favorite beach......


Let's hope the current land rush to Baja don't end up making our beaches look like this.:(

Okay...a quiz. Where is that overcrowded beach?:?:

I'm guessing Acapulco, nicknamed Cacapulco in Carlos Fuentes' excellent "Christopher Unborn," because of the sewage in the water. Alt. spelling is Acapukelco.

My favorite Baja beach....?

The one I'm sitting on right now as I reply to this thread. You can probably guess from my User Name which one that might be.

Dave....you got it!


Cape Flattery is correcto....that is the lighthouse island in the background. You may have seen the light if passing at night.

How about the Baja beach? Know where that favorite is at?

That was some nice strolling on the beach, even if it was just in my day dreams as I rolled down this pictures. Thanks Y'All, now I remember one more reason I am just about ready to go home.
