Resources

The internet is packed with Baja blogs and websites. Advice is readily available. Not all advice is created equal, and some of it is suspect. We’ve lived in Baja full-time for 14 years in the city running a small business and in an Ejido ranching. As a Gringo having lived here that long we feel confident that these websites provide the most reliable information. Feel free to visit them for your travel needs.

This compilation is by no means complete. There are plenty of other great online Baja resources out there as well. These are simply some of the websites that I have used and are helpful for travelers searching for credible advice:
