So glad the Sonoran resort got their live cam running again.

The border agents are still letting people through with only a DL and a birth certificate. My son and girlfriend came back into the USA 3 weeks ago, the girlfriend only had a DL and birth cert. The agent reminded her that she needs a passport/card to comply with the HSA guidelines. It added 2...

Pinto Pt. I forgot about that one, It's at the Ron Rico market, I have zero info on that place, but I'm sure it's affordable. There are a lot of places under the radar, that are mostly word of mouth or the bulletin board at JJ's.

There aren't any motels/hotels, there are a few bed and breakfast and house rentals available. Here is some links to rentals, I have Zero experience with any of these, so I list these for info only. https://www.rockypointvacationhomes.com/location/cholla-bay/...

The only advantage with Tessoro is much fewer people to deal with and is more secluded compared to all the coops at SB. The downside is all the unknown issues that could raise their ugly heads in the future. I would prefer to be on the Las Conchas beach vs the crowded Sandy Beach area. If I...

If? there are large ships (1200-2000 people) operating from the Cruise Port, I could see some smaller operators operating from there. But if it turns out that the people who sold the concept of a home port in RP under estimated the desire for cruising from RP and this turns out to be...

+1, good food and service. Eating there tomorrow or Friday.

I don't want to say it , but it's going to be really windy Friday and Saturday, seems like the wind always plays heck with the 1st weekend of fishing.

About 4 years ago we were charged $280 for a new crown without a root canal, my wife's 20 year old crown broke. We used the dentist just past Latitude 31 going to the fish market on the left side. My wife was ok with him. Unfortunately it broke again 2 months ago, ($750 with good insurance here...

Click on the Google map link, you can park in the empty lot shown in street view or anywhere along the roads at Pinto Point, just be cool about not blocking the narrow streets. Pretty good fishing either side of the large white house on the point, there are 2-3 concrete walk ways to the water...

Nice catch Joe, In the 2nd photo, you were probably right in front of my house on Pinto Pt. .

I am sure the photos from Semana Santa will show the beaches packed compared to SB. We were there all week, left on Saturday, there were a lot more people in Cholla and RP Thurs-Sat. compared to 1st part of our stay. All my local friends aren't looking forward to the huge crowds of crazies...

On Tuesday at another bank, BaNorte, I withdrew 10,000 pesos and was charged 46 pesos, Wells Fargo took another $5 for a combined total of approx. $8 or 1.4% in fees. That is the fee regardless of the amount, so I always withdraw at least 8-10,000 pesos, to keep the fees minimal. I received...

It took 1.5 hours, on the US side there was 2 agents talking to drivers and 6 just standing around laughing, the Mexico agents were waving most people through and only stopping vehicles towing enclosed trailers. Weather is perfect and some nice crowds at changos and jjs. A whole week of this...

Wonderful news, lol :(, it took 30 minutes to reach the 1 mile sign, it is really backed behind us.

At 1200 noon, Saturday the line at the border going into Mexico is 1.5 miles, no fun. Tons of traffic heading north. Based on the cars in ajo and gila bend it's going to be even worse by 1 to 2pm.

This year Spring break is March 4 - 20th. You will miss the largest crowds here this weekend. The crowds are pretty tame compared to 15-20 years ago. The 45,000 number is optimistic at best, 25k is more realistic, when spread over 17 days is manageable. The only big issue will be crossing the...

I had that happen to 2 doors that took 20 minutes of power washing, prying and applying much wd-40. We got the doors to finally open but the rollers were pretty bad. In the end we couldn't get the doors out of the tracks due to lack of head room even with the roller adjusters backed off. The...

Maybe Dos XX will start paying the consumers like they do the bars and restaurant's to stock their products. ;) For Pacific try the Modelrama as you come into Sonoyta on the left side of the road, in RP the Modelramas are usually the best place to find it other than the Corona store on BJ (in...

I know I'm going to get the flame thrower treatment for my comment. I wish the Mexican Govt. would also impose a ban (or a really, really short fishing season) for all fishing in the Sea of Cortes for a bit. That way everything being harvested will have a chance to re-populate. It's really...
