There is certainly no shortage of arts and culture in Baja California. The many museums, sporting events, festivals and dance performances, as well as the numerous markets selling traditional goods and restaurants serving up authentic food, make it impossible not to become quickly immersed in Mexican culture.

A trip to San Diego means easy access to international travel with the Mexican border just 17 miles from downtown.

Baja California is known for a wide variety of culinary staples. Aside from the region’s delicious Mexican food and margaritas, two of the most renowned Baja-Med dishes south of the border include the pan-fried lobster and the Caesar salad.
