Great spot in San Felipe, 15 minute walk to the Malecon. Dry camping just above the beach on flat hard ground. Great views, clean facilities, small store on site. 5 minute walk from dry camping to bathrooms and showers. Showers were clean but cold. $400 pesos per night. Offroad riding area directly behind camp, Great spot to ride but can be loud at night.

Our first Baja experience and had a wonderful time. Planned on one night but stayed for five. The ATV's on the dunes do get pretty loud and it is a half mile+ round trip walk to the toilets and showers from the dry camp. It was the great neighbors we had that had us stay five days. Would stay again. Still 20 US$ or 400 pesos.

$20US for dry camping, which had beautiful views of a clean beach on one side, and essentially a construction site on the other. A dump truck made ~4 drops of rubble in the 16h we were here, so note that this will continue for at least a few weeks. We didn’t use the showers etc — too far of a walk. Nice spot to spend the night, but wouldn’t necessarily want to post up here for what you get for the price…

This place isn't bad at all, our first stop in the Baja. We dry camped for 6 nights and had the best views of the ocean. The full hookup area looks very tight, we are a 41' 5th wheel and would be nervous in the full hookup area. There are dogs all over off the leash, and people do not pick up after them. There is a 4x4 area that is loud at times, the weekends the kids come out and do teenage things, but not a problem. We rented a fire pit for 150p but got the money back when returned. Firewood was 170p for 2 bundles but we scavenged for extra. The beach is trashy with a lot of broken glass which we tried to clean up each day. The price is 400p or $20 a night dry camp. We would come back!

Beautiful beach camping! I highly recommend this place if you don’t mind the sound of dune buggies running all night (until about 11:00pm). Beautiful moonlight/sunrise views. If you are not a dune buggy enthusiasts I do not recommend this place.

This was a lovely place to spend the night. The showers were clean and we camped right on the beach.

Mmmmeh.
I ended up in the "wet" camping right next to the little tienda.

Pros: at least in the winter, high tide is right up next to the campsites, so you get good, gentle wave sounds.
The overall vibe of the place, at least at night, feels pretty decent.
Toilets are decent.
The staff I dealt with were friendly and had better English than I do Spanish.

Cons: right next to the dunes, so you're going to be listening to trucks, buggies, motos, and quads ripping it up for as long and as late as people feel like ripping them. (Someone is still getting after it at 11:40pm).
The place is small and you're definitely packed right in close to one another.
I'm right next to where the Wi-Fi *should* be, but have gotten none.
Like most of Baja, "building code" is a loose concept. The concrete pads that define your camp surface have a significant, unguarded drop to the sand, and the doorways over the toilets are hard tile and painfully short.
Right near the malecón, so I expect my trasharoo and my fuel can to be gone by morning. Can't rightly blame the establishment if that happens, but I would still be more comfortable somewhere a little further out of town.

Overall, I chose this place because it was too late to make my original destination, was getting dark, it was a holiday, and I didn't want to drive around searching for a place to camp. It's OK, but I regret not heading back north and going to La Palapa.

On the beach with no facilities is how I would describe this dry camping. Club de Pesca does have free moderately warm showers which last ten seconds, bathrooms and a little store where there is free wifi. However that is almost a kilometre away from the dry camping which is likely the rubble strewn end of the property for this RV camp with brick casitas. So not much for $20USD. But pull up and find yourself a spot after paying.

$700mxn for a hook up spot on the little pier just above the water. Great bathrooms with flush toilets and hot water. Really enjoyed our stay although it was a bit pricey. Staying further down the beach wouldn't have been too bad, but a much further walk to the bathrooms. Wifi at the little tienda next door, good cell signal.

First night in Mexico after border :) 20 dollars (400 pesos) for dry camp directly on the beach.
We can see the effect of the hurricane Kay... The restaurant has been touched, lot of basura on the beach, houses and many palapas destroyed. It is very sad. But still a very warm welcoming, nice showers. No WiFi in restaurant for now.

Premier arrêt au Mexique après les douanes! Nous avons payé 20$ us ou 400 pesos pour dormir au bord de la plage. Nous voyons les effets de l'ouragan Kay... La terrasse du restaurant a été touchée, des maisons et palapas détruits, beaucoup de déchets sur la plage. C'est triste, mais ça reste un endroit chaleureux et accueillant. Douches chaudes. Pas de Wi-Fi pour le moment au restaurant.

Validé! Douches et toilettes super propres et une petite épicerie avec wifi! Nous avons campé directement sur la plage. Je recommande !!

Nice beach front sites with Palapas. Sites are tight. Toilets and showers are cleaned every but not really but without much effort. The price of 35$US is far to high. But all the campings ar in this price range. Internet is almost usable.

RV park . $20 to dry camp on the beach. No amenities. There’s a cold shower that you need to hold your hand down on it and there’s no shower curtains . Most expensive RV park I stayed at for almost nothing in return besides to park on the beach . Go sleep at the free places in San Felipe . Don’t waste your money here !

$20 for dry camping "since January". Nice spot on the ocean. Short walk down the beach to rent a small catamaran or get drinks/snacks. Dog friendly though it seems like people don't pick up their dog poop. Be sure to secure your belongings from the super intense wind. I'm from Florida and it felt like I was in a Class 5 hurricane all night. Could not stay outside at night due to the sand storm the wind brought. showers were HOT and had great pressure.

Report Check-In

NOT a good choice for a large rig for a short visit. Had planned to stay at Victors, but after reading some other reviews thought this would be better. There were beachfront sites, but tiny - barely big enough for a van. They had us back in to a very tight spot. Couldn’t even pull the slides out all the way. Will definitely stop at Victors next time - they appeared to have easy access pull-thru sites.

Dry camped here for 3 nights. Felt super safe. $200 pesos a night. Hot showers. Market on property. Would come again

Beautiful Beach, Ocean Front! Showers! Highly recommend!

Great dry camping on the beach for $15. Hot showers, WiFi at their restaurant. No complaints.

Report Check-In

Follow directions like you’re going to Victors, it’s the next place. There are several dry camping spots right on the beach $15. Go past the office after check-in, if they aren’t there just find a spot and pay in the am. At the stop sign turn right and follow that road right to the beach. Nice views but it’s a little noisy on account of the 4x4’s.

Spent 4 nights here waiting on a truck repair. Poor us!! haha. Super spot, close to town (10min walk maybe), very windy lately am to late aft, but got paddle boards out in am. Beautiful beach, clean facilities, wifi if close to small shop on site, rec room had books, movies and ping-pong, all very dog and people friendly. Hot free showers, clean bathrooms, and immaculate grounds. We got our 21 ft trailer beachfront, next to a palapa, 300 pesos/nite.

Report Check-In

It was $300p to park in “dry camping” which was weird to find. Alllll the way at the end of the road, you basically dead end into a beach with nothing else there. About a 0.5 mile walk back to toilets and showers if you want them. Showers were HOT. Fine to stay before/after crossing at Mexicali or if you want a shower or to be close to town, but you could boondock on another beach for free or less $ otherwise.

Great stop for overnight before heading south in a 24 ft class B rig. The cost was $30 for a site right on the beach with electric and water. There is security on the property. I wouldn’t want to stay in San Filipe for any length of time but great spot to fuel up, grab groceries and move on.

Report Check-In

$30 per night facing the beach. Includes electricity and water and a palapa. Spaces are close together but not an issue as site has not been full while we have been here. Cheaper sites available for dry camping but I don't think those sites face the beach. There is WiFi but limited to Tienda Limon. Showers are hot and clean. Beach was very busy on the Sunday we arrived but dead quiet during the week. Disfruta!

Traveling with 24’ RV trailer, camping on the shore, tight back in, beautiful location, sites also located back back in the palm trees, nice banos, cool showers this time of year. Easy walk to town and waterfront walk, great (jumbo) shrimp from local vendors, good restaurants.3 nights. Would return.

This was my first stop on my journey through Mexico, which was a little over a 2-hour drive from Mexicali. Initial impressions on Club De Pesca are ‘Wow and Amazing,’ and here is why.

RV Resort:
The office is located at the entrance of the park. The younger manager spoke excellent English and perfectly fluent at it. There was an older gentleman as well that spoke broken English but I was able to communicate with him just fine.

The resort has 31 beachfront sites. Site 101 begins to the left of the store and goes north to site 111. Site 201 begins to the right of the store and goes south to 220.

There is a dump station for the dry campers to use if needed. Also, there is a small grocery store with bare essentials, and it's the location of the wifi. In front of the store, there is a large, covered sitting area where you can hang out with family or friends. It was not busy at all so you could use it as a nice quiet place to sit and read a book.

Sharing the same building, and next to the store is a rec room. You can play ping pong, watch satellite TV, use the kitchen (large gatherings), pick out a book to read on the patio or rent some blowup toys.

The RV park location was perfect for me. Easy walking distance to the center of town via streets or the beach. It’s about a 5 minute bike trip for me.

Camp Sites:
Due to Covid, I'm sure, the resort was less than 50% of capacity during the week I stayed there. Dry to full hookups, 50 amp camping is available. I paid USD $35 per night for sewer, water and a 50 amp service. I stayed at site 111 and used two additional covered areas adjacent to it and parked my truck out of the sun, hung my hammock and created a lounging area. All sites are on a level concrete pad, which was nice to lay the mat out and keep the sand at manageable levels. The site had about an 8’ drop to the beach; however, large boulders were stacked up making it easy for me to enter and exit the beach. I would not recommend it for mobile challenged individuals, elderly or small children, though.

Most sites have covered palapas where you can sit out of the sun or pitch a tent under. Larger sites designed for bigger RV’ don't have them.

If you are highly skilled at backing up and able to thread a needle with your 30+ foot trailer you could probably get into most sites here with a bit of strategy. My 5th wheel is 36’ long and was able to get my RV into site 111 with a bit of strategy and many years of developing my maneuvering skills. I probably would not recommend anything over 40 feet, though.

Beach & Ocean:
Oceanfront and white sandy beach with spectacular views of the Sea of Cortez and its’ spectacular sunrises. High tide cycles every 12 hours and 25 minutes. High tide came to within 25’ of my site and low tide was 300-400 feet out. There are ample amounts of small shells and ocean creature bones along the shoreline that get washed up with the incoming tides. Unfortunately, there is a lot of garbage floating in the water and on the beach too. Lots of plastic cutlery, chip & plastic bags etc. I did my part to leave this area better than it was before my arrival, and if everyone picked up just one piece of garbage during their walks, the beach would be pristine.

During the week the entirety of the beach from north to south is mostly empty of people. The weekends have more people and some bring their quads to boot around on the sand bars during low tides.

Electrical:
The electrical was a bit sketchy, like most RV parks in Mexico. My surge suppressor reported a ‘Ground Fault’ so I was without power from my initial outlet. I moved my plug to the next site I was occupying and that one worked; however, I was getting 130v on one leg and 127v on the second leg of the 50 amp service. I was interrupted from service once with a ‘Ground Fault’ error from that plug but found out the electricians were fiddling with the power and was most likely the cause of the fault. I have 3000 watts of solar on the roof so I didn't notice and outages.

Bugs:
Black flies came out mid-morning and stayed for a few hours until the winds pick up and Mosquitos arrived at dusk but Deep Woods Off kept them at bay. The bugs were annoying but very manageable.

Wifi & Cell Service:
The wifi worked near the store but was slow. You’ll need a booster to get signal to most sites that are away from the access point. They (if management is reading this) really should put in a couple of more access points to increase coverage at or near site 106 and another at site 210.

I have Telcel cellular service and was receiving 3 bars inside my RV. Telcel was fast and reliable.

Weather:
The first week of May brought perfect temperatures. Rarely was there a cloud in the sky and was consistently 28c (82f)+/- degrees during the days. Normally the winds are calm in the mornings and evenings. It starts to get breezy by 10 am when the sun starts to heat things up. The breeze is welcoming because it’s blowing the cooler air off the ocean and into the RV. Because of that I didn’t use my air conditioners even once.

Don't forget to put on your sunscreen!

Summary:
I am recommending this RV Park. I give it 4 out of 5 stars only because of the slow wifi and the lack of coverage to the whole park. Fix the wifi and it would be a 5 out of 5 for me.

Enjoy, have fun and live the dream.

Nice RV park with options for dry, partial and full hook ups. We have a 32ft class A and got site 110 at the beach front. There is a cement pad you park on and options for an nice covered palapa next to your space. I think up to 34ft could fit here. Site 101 you could be longer as you go straight in. The palapa sites are tight so unless you have a good turning radius, 103 and up are probably out if your over 32ft. It is a beautiful unobstructed beach front spot with full hookups for $35US/night. We aren’t drinking the potable water because well, Mexico, and it is quite bleachy. Dry camping is $15. There is a ~6ft drop to the beach and a boat ramp here. At high tide if you are in site 112+ the front of your rig may get splashed from the waves. Beach is shallow and sandy with some rocks. Slow wifi is available when you are close to the store (site 101). Mexican 5⭐️ 😁

It's basically just an RV park. I was quoted $25 for an rv or camping pad (they're basically the same thing). It was late, so I stayed. Shower was the same stream of pee with roughly the same temperature. Nice place though.

Lovely concrete pad right on the beach. A little tight, but our 22-footer was no problem. Dump station on the grounds. Electricity and water at the site. USD 30 / night beachfront, USD 25 / night inland.

When we told the owner that we were looking for dry camping, he cleaned up a huge area south of the full hookup sites right on the beach. 190 pesos per night. Security checked on us often and we felt safe.

Loving our stay here for 7 nights over Christmas 2019. Parked our 23’ RV on South side of shop. Paid $30 or $3340 Pesos for water & electricity. Picked quieter side without sewer. Same price. We can dump on the way out. Friendly full timers here. We were able to use wifi in our spot, close enough to store. It’s close enough to the Malecon we walked to sightsee & eat a couple meals. Grocery laundry LP Gas water ... everything you need in town.

Large resort with sandy “streets” and palapas facing the beach. It was fairly empty when we were there (the week of Christmas), but another camper warned me it would be teeming by the weekend. The other campers seemed friendly and a few people had dogs (including us). There’s a convenience store and showers with hot water. Recommend.

Nice place to stay after 3 weeks of Wild camping :). Clean bathrooms and toilets, cold water but that is no problem. 300 pesos/night.

You Park your rv right in front of beautiful San Felipe beach. Sites are narrow and close from each other though. Bathrooms OK, but cold water only. We paid 29 for three of us. No way to negotiate for dry camping, electricity is included whether you or not need it.

It's an RV park. There are residences and RV's parked here. Concrete pad so tent camping on the ground wouldn't be ideal. Toilets and showers are the best we've seen in Baja! It's a busy place so not the best if you are looking for seclusion. We loved staying here for a night due to the location in San Felipe.

Tres propre. Douches chaudes. Directement sur la plage. C'est notre 4e visite ici cette année et San Felipe nous sert de base de ravitaillement. Nous payons 350 pesos, avec l'impression de profiter d'un traitement de faveur.

RV park with tent friendly sites along the beach. Really bathrooms, but cold showers, which was a problem since it was in 50F/10C and windy when we were there. 400 pesos a night, but on the 3rd day they suddenly told us our daughter was extra money, which kind of soured our opinion of the whole place. Free WiFi. Palapas.
