Crossing the border into Mexico

Traffic southbound into Mexico continues to decline as more regulations are put into place. The view above shows a typical noon-day picture of the number of cars and trucks heading south at the downtown crossing from Calexico to Mexicali. Of course you must have your passports in order to return to the USA, but Mexico also now says you must be able to show these documents to the immigration officials if asked to when entering Baja California. It appears, however, that they are not enforcing the requirement at this time.

Once you have crossed the border, the trip to San Felipe is safe and should take you about two and a half hours. The road construction project that is underway some 30 miles north of San Felipe may kick up a little mud, depending on the weather and the grading, so check if your hotel can provide a free wash. If not, you will probably get a "dry" wash if you park outside any liquor store in town.
