An easy scenic drive, or short comfortable flight from the border,
Campo de Lorenzo Skypark is located on the shoreline of beautiful Bahia de San Quintin about 200 miles south of the San Diego / Mexico border.
Driving to San Quintin, via Highway 1, from the major cities of Tijuana to Ensenada you will enjoy some of the most spectacular coastal landscape and beautiful Pacific Ocean views Baja has to offer. We suggest taking the toll road that has easy access to some of the beach community shops and restaurants in the event you want to stop.
About 25 miles south of Ensenada you will enter the Santo Tomas wine country that extends on down to San Vicente where you will start heading back towards the coast at Punta Colonet and on to San Quintin. The drive from the border to San Quintin should take about 4 hours.
Immediately after leaving San Quintin you pass through the small town of Cardenas and, a few miles south, there is a large sign over the highway indicating a right turn for "B. OF SAN QUINTIN" (Bay of San Quintin). Turn right and its only about 3 miles of nice dirt road to the Bahia where you will find all the motels, restaurants, sport fishing and Campo de Lorenzo Skypark.
