Guaymas – Santa Rosalia – By Ferry ^111
Baja California is the northernmost and westernmost of the 32
Mexican states. It comprises a peninsula that stretches from the US
border in California south to Carbo San Lucas, nearly 1,600
kilometres. The peninsula is reachable by road near the US border or
by taking one of the two ferries plying the waters between the
mainland and the peninsula. We opted for the Guaymas ferry which
sailed at 20h00, and had plenty of time to kill.
Waiting, I spent the afternoon clicking away, making the Guaymas
herons the most photographed in all of Mexico. Fortunately, the ferry
wasn’t very full, with plenty of empty seats and one could spread out
and get a good night’s sleep.
