Check-Ins

very safe .the staff is so Kind.
this place is free..........

Good camping, free, with bathroons, water and showers. Wifi free next to the camping. We stay during two days, during the week, and was really calm.

Beautifull walk. At the end you could stand in line to get a foto on the muele or walk a little bit further down to see the sealions and the sea. Price per person 3000 cpl and 3000 for parking

Very good camping. 5000 PP. Fast wi-fi, a great kitchen, good showers/ touilet. Good spot for tents and small campers.

They offer a kayak to Capillas de Mármol for 35000 PP. Esteban is the best guide! A good person, help us ALL time. Included a transfer to Bahia Mansa and return to camping.

We ended up staying here for a week, we really loved the beauty of this place and of course the price per night at 15 Qtz helps as well. We camped down at the lake, it gets crowded in the weekends and the owners played music all night. We survived that and enjoyed the rest of the time.

Ferry prices now 2 400 000 for 2 people and a van (about 6€ at the time of writing). Copies were another 600 000. Need a Carnet and passports.
The Way back was supposed to be cheapee and 800 000 but the guy did not have change and he just waved us through when we gave him a 1 000 000 note. Nobody asked anything more.

Very nice place well run by Dario the owner. He is the most helpfull person we encounter in our trip so far! It is clean all over! there is a small restaurant run by Francesco, he make the best parrilla!
we recommend this place if you are in the San Carlos area STOP there!

For me this worked only here, 5 km further east: 22.59935 53.92369.

Great service, great food and nice location. Not too cheap but good quality. Parking right in front of the restaurant and directly on the highway. They even have vegetarian options! 😍

Beautiful campground but the road to go there is something. We are travelling with our truck camper 3m3 high, 6m3 length, 2m3 wide. If you are wider, don’t go there 😅.
From the panamerican highway to the campground is like 1h. Be careful with your brakes and take your time.
Be sure to write on WhatsApp to Pierre to be sure to have a spot.
There is electricity and water to every spot. Wifi which is spotty depending where you stay. One toilet men and one for women. One “hot” shower for all the campground. It’s nice to have a clean bathroom!
You can pay some garafon which is so good too.
There is a sauna by the lake (no view) but we didn’t used it.

excelente place to park your trailer and spare a night. The best place to admire the sunset

pasamos dos noches en éste punto, hermoso lugar aún q en esta época te persiguen los locales para que vallas a un cámping. la vista y la ubicación son ideales!

We camped here for two nights and it was absolutely stunning! It took a while before you're there but once you follow the path to the last part where you can park, you have the place for yourself. Some locals crossed by and were very friendly

Nice place just before the end of the asphalt, perfect spot to see the sunset and quiet at night

You must pay at store on Westside oh Hwy 5 to enter. Lots of room for large rigs. Right on water looking at Gonzaga Bay. Our night was quiet.

Stayed one night, quiet, safe and within easy walking distance to town. Would definitely stay again.

friendly welcome. Rudimentury bathroom. paid 5000 pesos for 2 persons and a camper. the animals were curious and they walked freely around the campingplace.
great view.

lot of Space and you Can be covered from the wind. no noise from the road. hard to find. from the north, continue a few hundreds meter to see a road/ path at the left side. take it to come to this spot

Amazing spot in the middle of nowhere, with fantastic views and stars, very quite. You can keep driving further the marked spot around the hill, there multiple flat parking possibilities.

We stayed for 1 day without issues. We were desperate so didn't call or look for signs.

Hermoso lugar, tranquilo, con baños, electricidad y agua. Todo gratis. A orillas del Río Negro. Ideal para pescar y disfrutar atardeceres. Baño no recomendado por cianobacterias.

Now 15$ / garrafon otherwise s described

Henry is such a nice and helpful guy! He really wants to help, he knows a lot and he fixed our problem. Also for finding good batteries for the car he drove us to the places and we got also a discount. Thx a lot Henry!

Bon terrain propre et bien maintenu. Près du centre-ville accessible via une navette qui vient vous chercher directement a l’entrée du camping. Vous devez en faire la demande à la reception. (10.00$). Si de la pluie est prévue, évitez les terrains les plus bas. A proximité vous trouverez de tout. Cher mais ….c’est Nashville!

car wash with easy Access. roof at 6 mètres.
6 USD for a 24 FT motorhome. They could wash the top of my vehicule using a lader.
Mauricio, the owner can speak english. They clean the cabine, if you want it.

pay attention.

The last 2 km Access road are asphalted but narrow. The parking of the park is very small. We came a tuesday afternoon with a 24ft RV and we had to cross some vehicules and WE could Park.

We walk the entire circular track of the caldera clockwise.
The second half doesnt present any interrest because you dont have any views. Also, be aware that it becomes dangerous . The path is narrow and not stable, right on the depth. To find the track leading the parking lot at the end is also difficult.

my advise : Passing the sign saying 'end of NP dont pass' , walk only the first half until it becomes dodgy. And return.

Nice beach dry camping, I got in here with a 25' class C no problem. It gets sandy the further out you go. Lots of van lifers, so lots of shit and TP in the bushes off the beach. Beautiful sunrises light up the Sierra Gigante to the west. In calm weather, crystal clear water, wonderful swimming and paddling. In all of Baja, this is the only place I had any problems, and it was with a van-lifer with a bad temper who wanted to run his generator all night for starlink.

shrine over water for Padre Pio. You can burn a candle for him.

Free Wifi at Mc Donald’s
As there is no other Wifi Spot in Carpinteria here on iOverlander

Formal campground with ocean views and crashing waves at night. Space for 3 big rigs (tight getting in), full hook ups. One 28’ dry camp spot (ideal for vans/tents or small rigs). 3 night min stay. Long term stays available. 5 min walk to Cerritos beach, shops and restaurants.
