    Cleaner beaches

    Yeah, the more I think about it...You're right. I just remembered an incident where a group of sunbathers were leaving behind their empty bottles. "You're coming back to get those, right?," I pointedly asked. They sheepishly went back to collect while complaining "the Mexicans were going to pick...

    Cleaner beaches

    Haha, I wish! I used to rent out the Huckleberry's old place at least twice a month and have just used various rental companies since. We stayed at Palacio del Mar in Mirador last time, but on a couple of days used the beach in front of an empty lot in Las Conchas for a few hours. Had to...

    Cleaner beaches

    I was just about to post the same thing, Ernesto! It's very rare that I see more than a few bottle caps left by some vacationers/locals, but I'm ALWAYS finding wrappers and whatnot washing up. Hell, there was a used concrete anchor that rolled in just the last time we were on the beach in Las...

    Just curious, is that a general statement or are you referring to somewhere specific?

    Passports/Drivers license/birth Certificate

    WHOOPS! Posted this comment on the wrong thread: Hah, I was just about to suggest that someone should make the passport topic a sticky and realized it already is one...But this discussion brings up a good point: Why isn't there a FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) page for this forum? Just...

    Can I get in and out without a Passport??

    Hah, I was just about to suggest that someone should make the passport topic a sticky and realized it already is one...But this discussion brings up a good point: Why isn't there a FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) page for this forum? Just about every board I can think of has one. I realize this...

    Traveling with 2 small children

    My friend and her husband just took down their three-month-old in May and said they couldn't have felt safer. Definitely want to stay on top of that sunblock, though!

    Speed Trap in Sonoita!

    Yeah, once I come over that hill, coming into Sonoyta after leaving Penasco, I slam on the brakes and drive super-slow, especially by that tiny Police station building on the left (coming into town). Just before Wendy's (the hill before the border crossing) I like to pull over and make sure...

    Speed Trap in Sonoita!

    How fast were you going (in MPH) and where about were you in Sonoyta? Like, if you can't think of business, was it before the bridge, after, just coming into town...

    The Age Old Question

    Also, don't forget that you are at sea-level, thus getting more oxygen into your bloodstream and I'm sure the salty, misty air doesn't hurt!

    16 year old with no passport

    Anyone can get through with just a state-issued ID and a BC, I just did it the other day, and I'm a few years over 16! ;) If you hit a border patrol agent who's a new hire they'll give you about a thirty-second speech about how long they've wanted people to get passports, they hand you a...

    How does everyone TRULY feel about traveling to PP?

    I just got back, went down Saturday afternoon and there was a large checkpoint just prior to the city limits. Military vehicles, machine guns, police, etc. We slowed down and were immediately waved through, although there was an American whose truck was being inspected; he was standing outside...

    Rocky Point: Your thoughts on visiting, azcentral.com

    Here with a newbie to Penasco, she is loving it and was only momentarily phased by the miltary-backed checkpoint just before entering town. (Guns a blazin'!) Sunset cruises were packed, Super Ley was bustlin', Manny's et al was booming down Mirador and we could not have asked for more amazing...
