Explore Baja California Norte: Real Adventures, Real Locations

Welcome to the Baja California Blog—your front-row seat to all of my travel adventures across the rugged and beautiful northern half of the Baja Peninsula. Every post on this page includes a full YouTube video of the journey plus an interactive map button that lets you see exactly where I camped, explored, and wandered.

This collection is perfect for anyone dreaming of a Baja California road trip, vanlife escape, or scenic getaway. If you’re planning your own route through Baja Norte or just love living vicariously through real-time travel content, you’ll find plenty of inspiration and practical insights here.

Each video is filmed from the road and the trail, capturing the raw beauty and character of this untamed region—think seaside cliffs, cactus-filled deserts, sleepy beach towns, and lush mountains. I explore off-the-beaten-path locations, free campsites, lesser-known landmarks, and local beautiful places that you won’t find in a Baja California guidebook.

What makes this blog unique? Every single post is more than just a video drop. I’ve designed each one to help you visualize the exact route, understand the terrain, and plan your own trip. Just click the “map” button in any post to access the exact location where I filmed.

I cover everything from quiet camping spots near Ensenada, to wild coastal drives south of San Felipe, to off-grid adventures in the desert near San Quintín. You’ll see what it’s like once you cross the border and interact with the friendly communities along the way.

New content is added regularly, so be sure to bookmark this page or subscribe to my YouTube channel to stay updated.

Beyond just showcasing stunning landscapes, I also highlight practical tips and insider knowledge gained from my time on the road—like the best times to visit certain areas, how to find reliable water sources, and what gear works best for Baja’s unique climate. This way, you’re not only inspired by the scenery but also equipped with real-world advice to make your own trip smoother and more enjoyable.

Baja California Norte is a place of wild beauty, open roads, and unforgettable moments. Through this blog, I aim to capture and share those experiences in a way that helps others feel confident and excited to explore it themselves.

So go ahead—scroll through, click a video, tap the map, and start planning your own Baja adventure today!
