Where to stay? Gonzaga Bay has a great hotel. Not cheap, but convenient.

There are a lot more to discuss here. It all depends how much experience you have going to Baja.
For example; you can not take a filled spare gas can across the border. You can take an empty one, and you can fill it in Mexico. Same as firewood!

If you do not have Sentri card, the return line at the boarder will be long. Perhaps even longer with Covid issue.

Like I said before, I can go on and on, but I will stop now.
Wow, sad how regulated it has become. In the late 80's, just fill out a tourist card and go. Never got hassled about spare gas, firewood, or anything else we brought with us.

Times are a changing. As the song says.

I personally rather travel/fish in US anymore.

For many reasons like language, money, security, insurance, etc., etc., etc.

I did my bit in Baja, and it was not what I had hoped for.

Cost me a lot of money to be prepared for those trips. But that was my choice.

Thanks for insightful replies. My experience is really just a stay down in Cabo Pulmo on a couple of occassions. Interesting thoughts on motor. My thoughts generally were to leave it at home, fish only in acceptable weather and stay close in. Thanks again.
