Playas de Rosarito

Rosarito is a Municipality in Baja California, Mexico.

Travel to Playas de Rosarito

First thing, buy liability insurance. This can be purchased online 1 or at numerous agencies at the border in San Ysidro. If you don't buy it, have fun in jail. Even if the accident is not your fault, you will be held until that's cleared. Even if you hit livestock on the road, you the driver are at fault. Liability ensures the cow's owner is compensated. Also, arrive early most check=in times are around eleven and on busy holiday it will be very hard to find a room. The mexican cops prey on american plates so go early.

Rosarito Beach is easily accessed via a toll road that runs along the Pacific Ocean. The drive around Tijuana can be daunting. Follow the signs on the freeway, but be careful the signs usually appear only at the turnoffs. Don't expect any notices before the turnoffs.

When returning there is an unmarked u-turn in Tijuana you need to take to get back to the United States. It's at an interchange next to a Pemex station. Look for a line of cars with American plates making a u-turn.

If you don't want to drive in and there are buses from Tijuana.

For about US$15 you can take a taxi to Rosarito. Some Taxi Drivers may charge more, though.

There are 2 primary streets to Rosarito coming from Tijuana/San Diego.

The Toll Road (Mexico 1D - Cuota) is much easier and faster on getting to Rosarito. After crossing the border get into the 3rd lane (counting out from the median), in about 100 meters you'll be on an overpass and a 4th lane will bring on merging traffic, move over to the 4th lane and an offramp to the right will take you to the Via International/Carretera Mexico 1D. This is the main highway to take you to Rosarito, Ensenada, and the western part of Tijuana (Las Playas). If you keep your eye out for signs that indicate any of these three locations it is easier to drive in Mexico, but remember that the toll (cuota) and free (libre) route often split from the same road so may careful attention to the signs to avoid taking the wrong road. The toll cost will be about M$30 (about US$2.50) each way.

The Free Road (Mexico 1 - Libre) goes through Tijuana and can be harder to follow.

Halal Restaurants in Playas de Rosarito

If you go to Rosarito for food a must stop is Puerto Nuevo located just 8 minutes south of Rosarito. This small town offers more than 35 restaurants all serving Lobsters. This style of lobster can be found throughout Baja called "Puerto Nuevo Style"

La Flor de Michoacan, on the north side of town on Benito Juarez, has a well-deserved reputation with tourists and local residents alike. This restaurant is known for its carnitas (simmered and fried Beef) dinners served family style with Rice, beans, pico de gallo, fresh guacamole, and steaming, fresh Tortillas wrapped in cloth and served in a basket. The restaurant also has a full and serves margaritas made with real strawberries. Carnitas plates are served two different ways. Mixed Beef includes tripe and other pieces many do not find appetizing. If this is you, shell out the extra couple dollars and get the solid Beef. You'll be hard-pressed to spend more than US$10 a person, even with a pitcher or two of margaritas. The building is hard to miss, an imposing brick structure on a corner with a stop sign. Look for the word "CARNITAS" on top.

The history of Puerto Nuevo - in the 1950s and early 1960s this was a little fishing village where Americans would meet local guides at the billboard off the road. That billboard was for Newport Cigaretts - Puerto Nuevo is Newport in Spanish. This is the likely derivation of the name. One day the wife of a fisherman starting cooking the fish her husband and his clients caught... and the restaurant business was born. That original restaurant is known as #2 (this has to do with the lot numbering system); #1 was the second restaurant in town. Also and there are 8 restaurants in town with the name Ortegas. They are related and the competition is not all that friendly. Puerto Nuevo is a fun stop - the lobster is good - and you have plenty of choices for food, shopping and people watching! The Beachcomber lies in the central part of town in a resort village. The resort village is gated, so you'll have to park in the lot outside of the gate and take a small walk. If the guard asks at the gate where you're going, just say you're getting drinks at the bar, you don't have to have a house there to drink. The bar has a patio right next to the beach, making it the perfect place to drink a organic juice or margarita and watch the sunset. There is also access to the beach here as well. While the drinks aren't the cheapest in town and they aren't overpriced, and you're not going to pay a cover.

For a big club experience, check out Papas & Beer . Papas & Beer is a large club in the heart of Rosarito. Although the drinks are overpriced for the area they are affordable compared to US prices. There's usually a cover, and sometimes a line, but the positive side is that if you are looking to dance, meet new people and have some cervezas, you will find what you are looking for here.

Muslim Friendly Hotels

Rosarito Beach is a fast-growing town. With that growth comes growing pains! For this reason, it is best to avoid all high-rises and accommodations in downtown Rosarito. Loud music coming from the clubs is a persistent problem that tourists face when they try to go to sleep every night. The best option is for people to go to privately owned Villas or Condos or Houses. Listings of all three types are plentiful and readily found everywhere.

• Rosarito Luxury Penthouse Garden Floor Luxury 2 bedroom, 2 bath penthouse. Large balcony overlooking the beach. There is a circular bar as well as a kitchen, spa and swimmingpool nearby.
• Villa Bonita Vista 3 Bd 4.5 bath vacation rental in Bajamar. Villa Bonita Vista is located on the 7th green of the Los Lagos Course with ocean and golf course views. Bajamar is in Ensenada.

• Rosarito Beach Hotel Blvd. Benito Juarez 31 32.334778, -117.054888 ☎ +52 800 265 2322 - Built in 1925, this classic establishment is perfect for younger couples looking to have a great time in Rosarito. It has multiple pools and jacuzzis, and is situated right on the beach. There are numerous restaurants in the hotel, and guests are given vouchers upon check-in so that they may enjoy a certain amount of free meals and none-alcoholic drinks. If tranquility and relaxation are what you have in mind, this is not the place for you. Due to the fact that it is centrally located amongst Rosarito's downtown area on Benito Juarez and the music from the clubs is audible until 4 AM, and the bass will shake the hotel, making it hard for those guests who are not out partying to fall asleep. If you are looking to go clubbin, let loose, and catch some sun during the day, however, this is the place for you.

Bobbys Baja by the Sea - One of the nicer places to stay in Rosarito Beach is Bobbys Baja - just North of Puerto Nuevo's lobster village.

There are really nice - which is something one cannot say about some of the local hotels.
