After years of going fishing in Baja, I finally said no more! I had a boat cut loose, A cop got some $$$ from me on a trumped-up charge, A federally with a machine gun pointed at me during a drug inspection, Poor roads to travel on, language barrier, too far from medical or garage help, and it takes hours to get back across the border. And much more!
These precautions apply to anyone traveling outside of their home country. Inexperienced travelers aren't always aware of this, so it's just a kind reminder.
It's not for everyone to do alone. If all the planning is overwhelming, there are a lot of companies who guide folks down and help support the journey. The downside is that they can be quite costly, but the benefit is that guests just have to show up.
Great info and tips for staying safe!
Thanks! We're sure there are other tips for travel safety out there, too. What do you do?
Loved the Baja series!!
Thanks! It was such a wonderful and memorable trip for us.

Sorry to hear of the issues you've had travelling the peninsula. 🙁
What a great web site of crime stats.
Yes they do a great job!
Well done :)

Feeling safe somewhere is different for every individual, right?
Don't this, don't do that, don't go here, don't drink that. Be aware of cops, and gangs, especially in rural areas, other than that it's all good.😕

The amount of stress and preparation required ...so not worth going there
