San Felipe Baja California, Mexico
San Felipe is a small friendly fishing community of 15,000 - the northern most beach resort
community on the West Side of the Sea of Cortez. The 2.5 hour drive south from the Calexico /
Mexicali border to San Felipe is filled with diverse scenery - through the colorful business
district of Calexico, then vast agricultural farmlands to barren desert framed by rugged
mountains. As the road curves towards the Sea of Cortez, salty desert sand transforms into
the unbelievable blue green water of the sea - truly a spectacular sight seeming at first to
be a mirage of steamy desert sun! San Felipe has gradually transformed from a sleepy fishing
village into a popular vacation resort with an International Airport, Nightclubs, Restaurants,
Sport-Fishing, Snorkeling, Sailing Cruises and Sightseeing Tours. San Felipe is also home to
dirt bike and desert racing enthusiasts - with annual events throughout the year.
