I have used Banamex a few times without any problems, they are separate from the bank.

There is a bank on the right at the far end of town, I believe it's a Bancomer. I've used it several times, no problem, I believe the ATM's are open
24-7 there.

Banamex, a little past the downtown Pemex, the road makes a left curve, and it's on the right. Can't miss it. As dt says, dependable and available.

The Bancomer on the highway in Viscaino has an ATM if you miss the one in GN.

Banamex Guerrero Negro, location as noted.
Bancomer Guerrero Negro, I've heard there is one. Anyone know where?
Bancomer Vizcaino: There are two 24-hour machines. One on the east side of the highway across from the Pemex station at the north end of town at the
Bancomer bank building. Parking is horrible; better to park just north of there and walk back.
The second automatic teller is at the far south end of town on the west side of the highway where the 6-lane divided road converge as the 2-lane
Mex-1. Its small, almost nondescript, rather hard to see, although its in plain sight with usually easy parallel parking nearby.
Withdrawal limits with Bancomer: a max of 10K pesos per day. I've found the automatic teller machines in Vizcaino to be low on funds frequently and
simply not give more than 1500P. An option is to go into the bank to the teller to make a transaction. Be sure to provide your driver's license or
passport as they'll require identification. The bank teller hours are 9 - 3 M-F, i believe.

Stop at the Commercial Mexicana (Pelican) supermarket right next to COSTCO south of downtown Ensenada on Reforma (HWY 1)..............top off with
groceries, drinks, ice and a few Magnum Ice Cream bars..........also a varied selection of bank ATM's......safe and easy.

Geez. If you are looking for an ATM in Guerrero Negro, as was previously noted, there is one at the Banamex approximately two miles into to town on
the right.
There is also an ATM at the new Pemex station just West of the Cowboy hotel. However, I have found it to not be working on a couple of occasions I've
tried it.
And as for the one in Vizcaino, have used it several times, but have been told it may run out of cash from time to time.
So, if I were you, as I head into GN, I'd check out the ATM at the Pemex station on the left, If it's not working, drive on a mile or so and look for
the bank on the right hand side of the road.
As last I knew, there will be no more ATMs until Santa Rosalia.
If I was really short on cash, I don't know that I would rely on the bank in Vizcaino. Just alot more folks in GN who rely on their bank.

I wouldn't use an ATM that wasn't part of a bank unless it was an emergency, you need to be carefull regardless....

Hola winnebago and a big hearty welcome to the Nomad sandbox...lets hope you like to play!
IMO, it is always a good idea not to wait till the last bank but try some on the way down...the new bank machine at the new Pemex at the entrance to
Guerrero Negro was working last week just fine...sometimes the vizcaino Bancomer machine does run out of cash.
Have a safe trip and we look forward to seeing your trip report.
check your U2U box up in the right hand corner please for a private message

At least the ATM at the PEMEX is in the store (much like the ATM's at the AM/PM stores) where it can be monitored. The ATM's at the bank are not
monitored at night.

Bancomer in Guerro Negro is excellent. Stay away from Scotiabank in Ensenada as my card got skimmed there.

Welcome Davey...
Some history:
GUERRERO NEGRO is the name, and it is Spanish for the words Black Warrior. The Black Warrior was a whaling ship that sank in the lagoon that now bares
it's name.
The town started in the mid 1950's was originally called Salina Vizcaino, and was a company salt mining town. By 1957, the name was changed to
Guerrero Negro.
By the early 1970's its growth and importance exceeded that of El Arco, the mine town to the east in the center of the peninsula. The main peninsular
road had always passed through El Arco. In 1973, the new paved Baja highway coming north from San Ignacio diverted to the newer, bigger town of
Guerrero Negro with a side highway (Mex. 18) built to El Arco.
The Baja Highway (Mex. #1) was officially opened on Dec. 1, 1973 at the border between the state of Baja California and the territory of Baja
California Sur, very near Guerrero Negro. The Eagle Monument, 2.2 miles north of the Guerrero Negro entrance road marks the border. Baja California
Sur became a state in 1974.
