In CA or Baja? Where are you leaving from? How many days do you to plan to take driving or how many miles do you plan to drive each day?

Too bad for the people who think Cabo is Baja and all the peninsula between Cabo and San Diego must be passed through at warp speed...
They miss so much... and so much better things than hotels, bars, and time share husslers!

Driving like a bat out of hell to Cabo or from Cabo only means more time in Cabo.
Been there, done that...22 hours, 3 drivers. Wouldn't do it now but at 22 years old it was the only way to spend 4 days surfing Zippers.
I don't suggest the cafe next to the Bus Station in Santa Rosalia, you'll have big problems by the time you reach Catavina. We did!
Haven't had a bad trip yet....
