Getting There

• Car

  If you are traveling by car, start on the main highway (Mexican Federal Highway 1) heading south towards Ensenada. From Tijuana, it is approximately a 90-minute drive. Once you reach Ensenada, continue on Highway 1 and follow the signs for 'La Bufadora'. This will eventually lead you to Highway 23. After approximately 30 minutes, you will arrive at the entrance of La Bufadora. Be prepared for a parking fee, which usually costs around 30-50 pesos (about $1.50-$2.50 USD). Once parked, it is a short walk to the viewpoint.

• Public Transportation

  For those using public transportation, take a bus from Tijuana or Ensenada to the Ensenada bus terminal. From the terminal, look for local buses that head to 'La Bufadora' or 'Punta Banda'. The bus ride costs about 30-50 pesos (around $1.50-$2.50 USD) and takes approximately 30 minutes. Once you arrive at the La Bufadora stop, you will need to walk a short distance to reach the viewpoint. Be sure to check the bus schedule for return trips, as they may vary.

• Taxi or Rideshare

  If you prefer a more direct route, you can use a taxi or rideshare service from Ensenada. This option will be more expensive, with fares typically ranging from 300 to 500 pesos (approximately $15-$25 USD) depending on your starting point within Ensenada. The ride should take around 30 minutes. Make sure to agree on a price before starting your trip.
