LaVentana Mexico.... the incredible baja.. yes you can drink the water and also this is a very safe area of Mexico the 1000 mile drive makes it so. Kind of hard to commit a big crime and drive away 1000 miles. In fact LaPaz for our big city is rated in the top 3 safest cities in all of north america. The water right now is 80 degrees plus and we are getting early kiting winds.
OK even safer is La Ventana. a town of 600 that grows to 2,000 in the winter as the Canadians and Americans and a few Germans arrive. We are 30 Miles south of LaPaz population about 300k. This place was discovered by windsurfers about 25 years ago. It is now considered one of the best places to get a kite fix in the winter in North America.
there is a campground at $7-$10.00 a night per site (not per person) with clean bathrooms and cold showers.
there is also some limited free camping with no water no bathrooms if you are a real tight budget. people will be mad at me for telling you this so do not tell them I posted this....
There are many places to stay here if you have more than the camping budget. a general information site at www.la-ventana.info register and you do not get the ads. information is intended for locals, but it does have the links to hotels and transportation issues/methods.
