Mexicali offers an array of outdoor activities, shopping and nighttime activities.
San Felipe: San Felipe is the closet beach to Mexicali with access to other beaches like Puertecitos and sites of extraordinary beauty like the absolutely unique Valley of the Giants, where huge and imposing Sahuaro cactus greet visitors.
San Felipe itself has a bit of a reputation as a rough and ready seaside town, with the accompanying havoc and noise. Sport fishing and warm winters have attracted many retirees to sprawling trailer parks, while many younger Americans come here to party.
Laguna Salada y La Cuesta de la Rumorosa: Two unique places in the world that offer spectacular panoramas of natural beauty. Besides being ideal places for flying on a hanglider, cycling and off-road racing are also popular here.
Sierra de Juárez: Tajo Canyon, the highest monolith in Mexico with a height of 1970 feet, provides majestic panoramic views and is visited by premiere mountaineers from around the world. It is ideal for rockclimbing, hiking, rappeling, canyoneering, and panoramic photography.
There are also the Laguna Hanson and Llanos Canyon that offer a place for a variety of activities including kayaking, hiking, camping, mountain biking, rock climbing, and spelunking.
Vallecitos: Here the past meets the present in an extensive display of prehistoric rock carvings and cave paintings, such as the famous “Diablito” (Winter Solstice). This place is also excellent for hiking, a photography expedition, and spotting a variety of flora and fauna.
