San Juan de la Costa


Looking for road and camping info for this area north of La Paz. We have a 4 wheel drive and are towing a small, light 5th wheel. Would like to camp close to San Juan then explore w/o trailer up to San Evaristro. Road conditions? Camping safety? Etc?

Muchas gracias!

I have been as far north as San Juan twice in the last few months - road is fine that far. You should be able to find a beach campsite along there and then four wheel up to San Evaristo.

I headed up towards Punta Murchudo a couple of years ago just to explore but they had the road closed when I got to the mine. Is there another route around it?

Drove a rental truck to Punta Mechudo a few years back. Hooked a dorado from shore!

Did you drive through the mine or around it?

Just as you get to town you need to find a road that takes you to the water. The road north follows the sea around the mine. It does take you by the mine ore loading point. Big conveyor out into the sea. Been up there a few times and there are lots of roads that go down to the water. Find one and keep going up the coast.

Happy Trails
