BCS opening up June15...with restrictions
There was a welcome announcement yesterday from the Government that BCS has moved from red to orange category which means things can opening up with
some restrictions.
Outdoor public spaces like beaches, outdoor sport complexes & parks can open with the current suggestions of social distancing and masks.
Restaurants & hotels can open with the same social practices and only 30% occupancy...great news for tourism and locals alike.
It is controversial as is the whole Covid issue but a very welcomed announcement for many.
So all of you who have been messaging me...La Bufadora Inn & Campo Sirena are welcoming guests once again...the weather is gorgeous, shore fishing
is pumping and beautiful Bahia Asuncion is open for business!
We hope to see you soon!

Good news but expect the covid numbers to increase. We had 4 cases in our municipio up until last week when they stopped the filtros. Now we have 11.
Not a panic but that was in 4 days . Sucks but it had to happen. Peeps gotta eat.

Does this mean the airport in Loreto or the drive down Mex 1 will open up at the same time?

What a joke. They have been saying the peak was coming in a week since mid may. Today they are saying the peak will be next week. Not a good time to
come to Mexico.
Give it a month or 6.

"Not a good time to come to Mexico."
It really depends upon where you are going. TJ and Mexicali are still infectious. Small towns not so much. The problem with Cabo is all the jets
flying in from infected places and the crowded bars/restaurants, which could lead to a breakout. Not a good time to get buzzed at El Squid Roe.

you dont know this. this is just wishful thinking.
what has been seen in USA is that the highest rates of infection have been in health care facilities (esp. nursing homes, assisted living) and other
crowded living situations. Re crowded living situations, they have seen high infection rates in houses where many people live in a single house, and
particularly in immigrant or poor housing with large numbers of people in smallish housing space.
crowded living conditions, sounds like a lot of mexican housing i have seen...
Woke!

Areas in the USA that have re-opened are seeing high rates of infections and hospitalizations because people are not complying with social distancing
and mask requirements. I hope visitors to BCS are more vigilant.

Oh boy! I'll get out the Welcome Wagon for the Tourist Vans that come to Todos Santos! I do hold out hope that some stay closed awhile longer or
least requiere distancing and sanitation. Hotel California was not open this morning at 10:30am; a few other places were. Giving thanks I moved out
to Pescadero years ago! singin "Green Acres is the place for me!! Esperando lo mejor para todos. good news--I am told No Cruise ships will be
entering Cabo for awhile...

Cabo is pretty much a ghost town still. A few more businesses have opened since Monday, but there are almost no tourists around.

BCS is open.
I just got a newsletter from Discover Baja that says BCS is open.
I also got an email from Pueblo Bonito Hotels that says they have just reopen in Los Cabos.
Can't get there, however. The border is still closed and United SFO-SJD doesn't have any flights. 
What I'm doing at work is so secret, even I don't know what I'm doing!

The Mexican border is not closed. US citizens can cross southbound. Non-US citizens cannot cross northbound for non-essential travel. That's the
reality of the situation.

If you enter mexico on non-essential travel, you are probably entering mexico in violation of orders prohibiting non-essential entry into mexico,...
so will your auto insurance be valid if your presence in mexico is illegal?

According to Discover Baja, the border is closed to non-essential travel. So is Northern Baja. That means that even if you could cross the border,
you would have to drive to Guerrero Negro.
I guess the real question is who knows for sure what is happening at the border.
If you believe Discover Baja, it doesn't look like the chances of driving from the border to GN are very good.

I know for sure that I drove into Mexico at San Ysidro the week before last. No questions asked. Other nomads have recently posted about crossing
south, going to BCS, no problems.
