New Discoveries in Familiar Places

This, our third winter in Baja, we established a goal to find new places to explore, as well as revisit our favorite locations.

The past two winters in Mulege, we stopped for a day and focused our attention on “downtown” Mulege, spending our time shopping, doing laundry, filling our water tanks, and eating out.

As part of today’s search for new discoveries, we drove east of town along the bank of the Mulege River to the fingertip of land at the mouth of the river, parked our truck, and had a picnic lunch on the beach. Afterwards we walked uphill 1/4 mile to the town’s lighthouse, which provides outstanding views of the lay of the town, the Sea of Cortez, and the surrounding area, all the way north to the city of Santa Rosalia through which we passed yesterday.

This remains one of our favorite places on the Baja.
