Homes line the beach, there is a space for public parking and access. 50 pesos for a car all day. The beach is clean. The sand in some areas has gold sprinkles. The sand is soft, plenty of shells along the water if you want to collect some. Watch out for horse poop O_O People ride horses and walk dogs all through out the day. There's a guy offering rides on his motorized hang glider as well. When the weather is clear, you can see the sleeping man island in the distance. I'm ready to go back!!

This bus ride to La Bufadora from Ensenada, taking nearly an hour each way, was the best leg of the…read moreexcursion IMHO. But probably not for those suffering from a fear of heights. Quite hairy at times getting there. And on a narrow two way road overlooking the ocean. Beautiful views though. After arriving at La Bufadora's parking lot, a huge shoutout to the driver for getting us there safely. And before stepping off the bus our guide Roxanne gave us a prep talk on what to expect. Of course its main destination is their famous blowhole. While the taco spot Lidia's Grill is also extremely popular. Riders were even given the option of bringing their tacos back to the bus to enjoy while riding back to Ensenada. But before reaching that very popular blowhole, we were given advice about first weaving our way through the huge marketplace and its very aggressive hawkers. "If not interested just ignore them." Think LA's Olvera Street on steroids if you've ever been there. And much larger, at least a quarter of a mile in length with everything imaginable being offered. But Roxanne boldly guided us through and finally we reached the blowhole and the beautiful scenery overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Then you're left to take in the views on your own. Just remember to head back to the bus to reboard by 2:10 for our return bus ride back to the port. And conditions were right for amazing bursts of waves from the blowhole. While some spent almost the entire time at Lidia's putting in and awaiting their taco orders. It's that popular.

We hired a taxi for the day for $200 for 6 of us.

I decided to stick to a horchata from a restaurant here vs street sampling. I had to take the kiddies with the piglets here/ so cute and we tipped the owner.

You can't always get in the water due to the high bacteria levels, even though it does look clean and clear, it unfortunately is not. But even when it's deemed safe to swim, I would never get into the water here in Baja. There are some areas where there's a little bit of trash but it's way high up past where you walk. It kind of looks like there's some spots where people hang out at night with fire pits, and then leave their bit of trash behind. Along the way you'll see a high condo like building that was abandoned and unfinished where there's some big dirt heaps that's now used by dirt bikers as a ramp. And apparently you can actually drive right onto the sand, but we did see a big truck almost get stuck, so best to have a 4x4 if you're gonna drive your way to the water.

You can bring your ATV's or dune buggy and spend hours on their off road course. Punta Estrella is the best place to camp in the San Felipe area. It's far away from town that you can see a billion stars but it's close enough to go get ice and supplies as needed. I highly recommend a visit even if it''s just for the day to play on the clean beach.

And let me tell you! 10 bucks per michelada and 40 bucks for plate with a small lobster and about 8 shrimps. Beach was dirty with people leaving trash behind and found quite a few broken beer bottles. Overall place could be cleaner and prices much better. It's hard to swallow driving 3 plus hours just to pay pretty much same prices from a decent restaurant on this side of the border.

We drive right on in unless it is too packed with cars. Don't know till you go. It is a small fishing village where locals sell their daily catch right from the coolers and trading/bartering is in order. You definitely need to speak Spanish for this. I have actually brought large, fishing type coolers here to trade for freshly caught fish or even several dozen tamales. Yes tamales too! Also a handful of older restaurants boast ocean views with fresh seafood. We prefer to drive down to the beach in my Subaru and eat right there. We went to Sarita's and it was fantastic fresh seafood. The huge pig on the beach was unexpectedly cool! Eating all the good seafood scraps I'm sure. An unverified rumor from a construction guy that worked at my house mentioned he knows someone that says the sewage outfall drain pipe down in the area is not far offshore from here. I cannot confirm this and it won't deter me from coming back at all.

TikTok took me to Blacks Beach for a hike and I had no idea what I signed up for…read more The hike itself was actually scary but so fun. We took the route that involved a little rock climbing, super slippery paths, and at one point we literally crossed a narrow plank with ropes and I was questioning my life choices lol. But once we finally got down to the beach... wow. I was SO excited. All that hard work actually paid off. The beach was beautiful and it felt so rewarding getting there. Then we started walking further down and suddenly... I realized there were a bunch of completely naked people everywhere. I had NO idea Blacks Beach was a nude beach. I was shocked for like 2 seconds and then started laughing because out of all the things I expected after surviving that hike... that was not one of them. 10/10 experience. Scary, fun, unexpected, and definitely memorable.

The beach is really clean with most beach goers carrying there picnic trash back up. Volley ball games usually take place in the summer. The views are not to be missed. The sun reflecting on the water in the late afternoons is mesmerizing so bring your best sun glasses & suntan lotions. For the shy person the RIGHT side as you climb down the cliff facing the water is for those who prefer bathing suits, Speedos & bikinis. To the LEFT side of the beach facing the water is clothing optional. Usually its a bit farther. Great that nobody bothers you & its a safe space for that all over tan. Sometimes beverages are sold on the beach discreetly, however, I'd recommend bringing your own & lots of water. Its a good idea toto bring food, snacks, fruit and sandwiches... insect repellant if needed. *True, sometimes it is a bit overcast so its best to check the weather report before leaving. *Free parking is available above the beach. Please be considerate while parking in an organized fashion in consideration of others. Thanks. Enjoy the beach & surf!!
