Impressed with this book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I found this book to be by far the most helpful and user-friendly guide to camping in Baja that I've yet seen. While it is purported to be The Complete Guide to More Than 170 Tent and RV Campgrounds, I found it to be much more than that. More accurately, it is, in fact, the complete guide for every aspect of venturing south of the border into Baja. This book tells you not only where to go and how to get there, but when to go and what to bring. It even discusses how to deal with such varied potential dangers as unsafe drinking-water and ice, stingrays, jellyfish, heatstroke, sunburn, getting hopelessly stuck in sand, or tangling with the police over a traffic accident. It even shows you how to clean a fish. In short, it had everything I needed to prepare for my trip to Baja. I highly recommend it.
Needs to be updated

I've traveled throughout Baja the last 2 years and found the book is very out of date. Many of the campgrounds mentioned have closed and some of the sites are no longer suitable for camping, for others, the nature/quality of site has changed. This can be a big problem if you've traveled to some out-of-the-way location expecting a certain level of accommodation and find it less than sub-par. HOWEVER, being a person who normally avoids the 'organized, Americanized' campgrounds the book is very useful and it is book worth having.
Fun in the Baja Sun!!!

This book was purchased while i was in baja. I traveled with walt petersons adventure book, but it lacked the info i was looking for, and this book did a great job of filling in the blanks. Having only traveled to Baja once, and hitch hiked for three weeks, this was the book i was looking for. It is a cut to the chase book with good recommendation, and good reviews of the camps in baja...happy travels, i wouldn't leave to baja without this one again!!!
