Los Barriles, Baja Mexico Sur
The eastern cape is mostly known for its stunningly beautiful and largely undeveloped 120km of coastline along the Sea of Cortez between Bahía de los Muertos and San José's estuary. Within these few hundred kilometres there are only a handful of towns of note, along the water and inland. Ever since the Transpeninsular Highway's paving, developers have longed to transform this area into a resort area to rival Los Cabos in the south. The largest and most accessible resort is LOS BARRILES, a major fishing and windsurfing centre that takes advantage of the near-constant strong breeze in the bay. The wind, best in winter, is brilliant for experienced windsurfers and makes this a regular venue for international competitions.
