SAN QUINTIN   (GPS coordinates 30'49 N ~ 115'90 W)   is home to one of the largest protected bays on the west coast of Baja. It actually consists of 3 different bays which includes the outer bay of Bahia Santa Maria to the south, as well as the two inner bays of Bahia Falso and San Quintin Bay. This mostly agricultural area is 190 miles south of the U.S. border, roughly a four hour drive, and it is the last coastal tourist town before the Baja Highway heads down and over towards the east side of the Peninsula.

San Quintin has several different focal points. The first one that most visitors see is the long commercial sprawl along Baja Highway One. This stretch is Worth a visit for gasoline and supplies, but most visitors who want to spend time here head for San Quintin Bay, located about 3 miles west of town. The dirt access road south of town heading towards the Old Mill Hotel and Don Eddies Resort is a good place to start. This area is located on the east end of the bay and fishing is the name of the game here. A third and more remote San Quintin locale can be found on the ocean side of the bay...miles and miles of empty beaches!

Boating and fishing are popular in the local waters here, and so is claming. There are no large tourist centers here yet, however the few small hotels and restaurants that cater to tourists here have developed a strong following.

A variety of goods and services can be found along the Transpeninsular Highway which runs several miles through the San Quintin Valley, including four gasoline stations, several banks, restaurants and a variety of other miscellaneous services.

Just south of San Quintin lies the Rancho Los Pinos agricultural area. Hundreds of acres of land is farmed on both sides of the highway and up into the hills, with tomatoes being the largest crop here. The Rodriguez brothers seem to expand their operation more every year.

Because of the relatively close proximity to the border several different large scale plans are on the drawing boards to develop this area for tourists. Waterfront homes, a marina, and a golf course are all down on paper, but time will tell if these projects ever get off the ground. Until then, San Quintin is still considered the pivotal town where northern Baja civilization ends, and the raw Baja frontier begins. Heading south from here, Baja travelers find that vacation 'decompression' kicking in much more completely, and that 'Baja mode' really sets in!

A Visitors Center and rest stop for the San Quintin area is sometimes open on the main highway about 8 miles north of town on the west side of the highway at Km. 178.3. You can't miss it...it's the only newer building along the highway! This small but nice building has brochures for the various tourist areas around San Quintin and is the perfect place to stop, stretch, and get your questions answered!

Visit our EL ROSARIO page to see what awaits you an hour south of San Quintin!

San Quintin was the third night's stop that Carlos Fiesta hit on his 2,200 mile SOLO BAJA CIRCUMNAVIGATION!

THE GRINGO FACTOR

Gringos have been coming to the San Quintin area for years to enjoy good fishing and good friends. Most of the gringo activity tends to center around the hotels on or near the San Quintin Bay, including the Old Mill Motel, Don Eddie's, the Old Pier Hotel and Cielito Lindo. Ten minutes south of town the Desert Inn (old La Pinta) hosts visitors looking for a nice hotel on a large sandy beach, outside of Bahia San Quintin.

 

YOUR FIRST STOP IN TOWN

Driving south on Highway One through San Quintin past all of the local businesses and shops leaves a visitor with the initial impression that there's not much here for the tourist. Don't fret, amigo. Head straight through town for the "Old Mill" resort sign just south of town (at the power plant substation turn-off). Take this unpaved but decent road all the way to the end, hang a right at the sign, and then drive to the bay and park. The old wood sidewalks and mining town flavor of this waterfront location are the perfect place to enjoy the fantastic view of the bay, smell the salt water, and order up a cold drink at the Don Eddie bar and restaurant!

CARLOS FIESTA'S HOT TIP: Much of San Quintin city is located on either side of the main Baja Highway, well east of the Pacific Ocean. To find the 'real' San Quintin, turn west at the sign for the Old Mill Motel. Next to the motel there are two launch ramps which will accommodate most trailered boats. The motel restaurant and bar at Don Eddie's are also a great places to relax, grab a bite to eat or drink and enjoy the spectacular view of the beautiful bay!

San Quintin has great beaches, without question. Also, part of the uniqueness of the area is the large bays that have made San Quintin so popular over the years. Collectively, these bays are some of the biggest on Baja's west coast, and offer excellent opportunities for fun and adventure!

 

  • BAHIA SAN QUINTIN

    (inner bay)

    Once through town, about a mile past the military camp, follow the signs on the main highway to Old Mill Motel, west of the highway. This road dead ends at the Old Mill launch ramp on the bay.
    This inner bay is long and somewhat narrow, and goes for miles south until it finally opens up into the main bay. A good portion of this bay also heads north from here, at a point near the Old Mill Hotel where the bridge used to cross over towards the other side of the bay. This is a fun place to watch the tides swing from high to low, as they flow quickly through the narrow straight just in front of the hotel!

     

  • BAHIA FALSA

    (outer bay)

    Once through town, turn right at the first road past the military camp at Lazaro Cardenas, go three miles and bear right at the fork in the road.
    "False Bay", although not as deep as inner San Quintin Bay, is very wide. However, these waters are still protected from the ocean winds by a strip of land separating False Bay and the Pacific Ocean.
    Heading south from here takes you to the main entrance of San Quintin Bay, just to the west of Laguna Cape.
    There are a few homes, mostly Gringo homes, on the east shore of the peninsula that separates the two bays.

     

  • PLAYA MEDANO

    Accessed by taking Lazaro Cardenas off of Baja Highway One, west towards the ocean, right at the fork, then 3 more miles to the ocean.
    On the Pacific Ocean, running from Picacho Vizcaino south to Cabo San Quintin, this long empty beach offers 8 miles of solitude and adventure!

     

  • PLAYA SANTA MARIA

    Right turn off the main highway south of town, near the La Pinta Hotel, until the pavement stops.
    Miles and miles of empty beaches running south from the mouth of the bay down to the marshes!
    Services can be obtained at both the La Pinta Hotel, as well as Cielito Lindo Motel.

There are miles and miles of open areas to camp both north and south of the San Quintin area, both inland and at the beach. Since these beaches are not far from the main highway, security is not assured. There have been a few isolated incidents where tourists camping on the beach have run into trouble with bandits. Something to keep in mind.

South of San Quintin near the km. 16 (head west at the sign) is Palapas Alvinas, just up from the beach. Camping, showers in a quiet environment.

The fishing in the 3 large bays here is particularly good! Access to the bays by large commercial boats is not particularly easy, because of the ocean waves and shallow harbor entrance, so the bays do not get fished out very easily.

Halibut, mackerel, perch, croaker, are readily available in the bays, and yellowtail, yellow fin, sea bass, rock cod, link cod, and sometimes dorado can be found in the open sea. Surf fishing can be good on the beaches south and north of the bay entrance.

Boat rentals can be arranged at the Old Mill Hotel and the Cielito Lindo Hotel.

To help flatten out your learning curve, BAJA DIRECTIONS offers excellent fishing charts for the San Quintin waters!

For more information on obtaining the proper fishing documentation required for dipping your hook in Baja waters check with the professionals at MEXICO ADVISORY SERVICES.

First class hotel accommodations are not San Quintin's strongest suite, although there are grand plans on the drawing board to change that.

Meanwhile, the existing hotels and motels provide a good place to hang your hat while exploring the San Quintin area.

The National Observatory is approximately 60 miles north-east, off the main highway on a fairly good dirt and gravel road past Meling Ranch. Regular passenger cars should have no problem during dry road conditions.

The observatory sits on a high peak in the mountains of Sierra San Pedro Martir. The road goes all the way up to the observatory, although a 'do not enter' sign indicates that they prefer that you walk the last half mile of paved road.

On a clear day the view from the nearby rocks allows you to see both the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortez!

A fun excursion includes grabbing a room at Meling Ranch on the way up, enjoying a good home-style dinner and breakfast, and then heading up to the observatory in the morning!

Visiting the observatory after November can be risky, as snow often falls on these mountains when cold fronts drop down from the north.

Highway One goes through town for quite a few miles, offering just about everything a Baja traveler might need! Gasoline, pharmacies, liquor stores, taco stands, tire repair . . . you name it.

Load up now because these things are in short supply over the next few hundred miles. Next significant shopping down the highway is Guerrero Negro.

Looking for a big supermarket? Mercado Avical is located on the south end of town on the east side of Baja Highway One. It's a big store and has most of the items you would find back at home. Even Oreo Cookies!

Buses traveling the Baja Highway make a stop in Lazaro Cardenas, just north of San Quintin, on the west side of the street.

There are a few taxis in town for local transportation.

3 PEMEX stations are available to the Baja traveler in this area. The north station (Pemex #2881) is located at the traffic signal and also serves up diesel fuel. There is a bathroom at this station but it is not pristine.

The second one (PEMEX #6671) is located further south in San Quintin at Km. 191 serves ice, snacks, sodas, and Red Bull (for those long halls). It is open 24 hours a day and it also offers air and water for your vehicle, and clean restrooms!

The newest PEMEX (#7574) islocated a bit south of town near KM.market '0' is very large and offers a market and clean restrooms. A good place for RV's because it is so large and has extra room for parking.

The Bays of San Quintin are excellent for boats and yachts in need of temporary shelter. The entrance to the main bay can be tricky, especially at low tide. Current charts are very important!

Two good web sites to review for RVer's who want to tour the Baja Peninsula in an escorted RV caravan include BAJA WINTERS and BAJA AND BACK RV TOURS.

Don't even think of heading south from here with the hope of finding gasoline or supplies! There are some services in El Rosario, but not many. If the gas station in El Rosario happens to be closed, your out of luck. Best bet is to fill up here, which should get you to Guerrero Negro.

The PEMEX at the Bahia de Los Angeles junction has been closed for some time, although locals sometimes sell gas at that intersection from large drums.

    San Quintin real estate tends to mark the southern boundary for Baja fans looking for real estate within a reasonable driving distance from the U.S. border. The four hour drive is tolerable for most folks who want to invest in Baja, and it's far enough south where they actually feel they are in the remote 'Baja' that most tourists never see.

    Many potential Baja homeowners have had their eyes on the large, beautiful bay here for years, and several developers are currently in the process of helping to make those dream homes a reality. Large sections of land near the bay have been master planned for residential communities, and other large tracts are now being offered for sale. Unlike much of the residential development further north in Baja, where homes have been build randomly with no central theme, it is likely that much of what gets built in the San Quintin area will consist of specific ideas on zoning, lot size, and aesthetics. This forward thinking should result in communities that hold their values well for many years.

     


    DEVELOPER PROPERTIES

    There are several different plans in various stages of development in San Quintin, although most tend to be in the early stages at this time. Large land holders and project developers in these early stages can often offer special incentives and price discounts to potential buyers in order to build sales momentum.
