Malecon Playa Hermosa

Consider renting a surfboard rather than buying. There are some great local shops near the beach that offer rentals for way cheaper than buying one.

Watch out for the tide changes. I got caught once and had to haul my gear back up the beach, which was a pain. Just check the tide times in advance!
La Bufadora
San Miguel Beach

My advice is to bring some beach chairs or a mat—sandy towels get uncomfortable after a while. Plus, having a comfy spot makes it even more relaxing!

Don’t skip the sunset! I recommend sticking around until about 7 PM for some stunning views; it’s magical and perfect for photos without the crowds.
Lighthouse Beach
If you're driving, try to arrive before 10 AM to snag a good parking spot. The later it gets, the more crowded it becomes, and parking can be a hassle.
Rosarito Beach

If you're into surfing, rent your boards a little off the beach. I found a place called Surf Camp that had better rates than the beach rentals. Plus, the staff was super friendly and gave me great tips on the best spots to catch some waves.

Don't skip the local taco stands! I found some amazing places just a few blocks from the beach where you can eat like a local for a fraction of the price you’d pay at touristy restaurants. Trust me, the fish tacos will blow your mind!
