"Just don't try a "wilderness camping", i.e. on the beach for free. There is no such thing in Baja as road-accessible wilderness, not on the waterfront anyway."

OMG - so not true. Just stay out of sight - free camping aplenty.

Exactly right... but this is perhaps the best reason to travel Baja in a 4WD (with an air pump) !

I this area I would not just stick to gringo areas, but to gated gringo camps. A lot of ladrones from Sinaloa and Sonora.

Do you think a newbie really knows what a 'ladrones' is?

If one cannot get south of El Rosario (225 miles from Tijuana) for the first night camping, then El Palomar in Santo Tomas, Posada Don Diego in Colonia V. Guerrero, Los Olivos in San Quintin valley (next to Jardines Motel/Restaurant), and the Sinahi RV Park in El Rosario, would be good choices for RVs and tent campers.

Baja begins in the area south of San Quintin! Some disagree and sadly I remember earlier days. Keep us up to date of your adventures and travel. Very good advice, as usual. South, young man, travel south! You'll have a blast and please keep us informed. Tio

I think even a newbie knows how to use Bing or Google translator.

Yes, South of Ensenada it's getting better.

In the 'old days', the adventure began when the pavement ended: Just north of Colonet or at San Felipe! Now, it is anyplace you leave the pavement! Better still when off graded roads, too!
