I've never had a beach vendor turn down an ice cold bottle of water or Gatorade. :desert::coldone: Although sometimes they slam it back, and sometimes they take it with them. Do you think when they are taking it with them it is so it warms up? I would feel rude giving them room temperature...

I was not stuck indoors this afternoon, I was floating in my pool, and I would still rather have the Sea of Cortez and walk the beach than be in Phoenix any time.

A different thread said Latitude is where the cemetery used to be, marked on this map with "K".

Every time I walk on the beach I take a bag with me to pick up trash. To me it is just part of loving the beach. I usually collect shells in one direction, and trash on the way back. But at Mi Playa the two of us would have had to literally spend hours picking up the trash piled everywhere, and...

mondone, Yes it was Marsha we rented from. I was not sure if it was okay to say her name on the forum,:think: so I decided to be safe. We loved to rent the house they called #55 at the east end of Miramar. You are so lucky to have your own place in Encanto now. That is our dream... Thanks so...

What an amazing house! That would be perfect for our next family reunion. We are usually looking for something much smaller just for the two of us, so we will also look at Carol's smaller rentals at the bottom of the page. :wink: Thank you so much for the friendly information!

We head down and stay for at least a week every August for my birthday. The heat and humidity can't keep me away, I actually LOVE it. Then back to Phoenix where we shrivel up like dry sponges.

I have heard that they have AC now in Encanto and Miramar, so we will have to look for a place there that allows our dog. Solar with electric combo is great. The owners we used to rent from down there got divorced years ago, and then eventually they closed their rental business. They used to...

that is good news about the ac

MIRAMAR - Photo 1 is taken this past full moon on August 1 at low tide in front of Las Olas I, Los Conchas Section 6. Photo 2 is taken in the afternoon August 2 as dolphins ate and played in the high tide in front of Las Olas I, Los Conchas. We saw one dolphin jump fully out of the water, but...

It shows how they ruined Sandy Beach, that's for sure.

We drove down to Mi Playa on Monday afternoon just to check it out. The palapas are great, but the beach was unfortunately covered in trash everywhere. We looked at big signs that show the photos of the planned development there. Is that really all going to be built?

Sorry! I have been in town for a week and I was going to comment on some of the "inside information" I have heard regarding the home invasion and in town shooting, but then I decided it is just rumors and although I trust the locals here that told me what they know, it does not mean it is true...

One of my favorite books: The Edge of the Sea of Cortez: Tidewalkers' Guide to the Upper Gulf of California by Betty Hupp & Marilyn Malone (written and photographed by two ladies with a PP beachhome) with foreward by Peggy Turk Boyer, Executive Director, CEDO A truly amazing guide with tons of...

It is still a good site! Don't give up on Rocky Point Talk! I just joined, but I have been getting quick and reliable info for years by reading posts on this site. There are helpful, funny, goodhearted people on this forum.

beautiful photos! we always are tempted to visit the El Pinacate Biosphere Reserve on our annual trip to PP in August, but I think it would probably be too hot...

Thanks Roberto, that is good news about your wine getting through inspection! It is just the hubby and me going, so we have no extra people to divide our stuff. TerryC, if I drink it all before the border, there will be no champagne on the playa! Oh no! :hateit:

That link led me to the Aduanas link in his post, Pasajeros - Passengers arriving by land which states that it is true! I think I will print the page with the info from Aduanas and have it with me at the border, just in case.
