Goodbye San Felipe
Well, that is it for San Felipe… for this trip at least. We camped on the beach for a week, explored numerous places to eat in town, and basically just beach bummed around for most of the time. I even tried my first few seafood tacos while here; Shrimp (not so likey) and Mantaray (not so likey either).
While San Felipe was not on my radar until the days leading up to the border crossing, I am happy we came here as it is a milder transition into Mexico than Ensenada (our original first week location) would have been. San Felipe’s economy is still tourist-based, but the number of people in town is likely a fraction of Ensenada’s.
Today we make the 260 mile drive to Bahía de los Ángeles, and some of those miles will be on dirt/gravel. This is not the first time Big Blue has been off-asphalt, but it has been a big concern for us as the definition of “dirt road” can be drastically different this far south. Fingers crossed
Nice. We’ve spent a lot of time in Mexico and Baja but have never been to San Felipe. Your posts make me want to visit. Hopefully soon.
