Malecón San Felipe — Attraction in Baja California

The Malecón is the heart of san Felipe, when it comes to tourism. Along the waterfront of the Bay of San Felipe, you'll find beach, fishermen, mariachi and banda music, street vendors, shops, restaurants and bars.

A local government effort over the last couple of years has significantly beautified and cleaned up the area.

San Felipe is a small quiet beach town on the Sea of Cortez. I stayed here 3 days and two nights, 3/14-3/16/2020 with my Fiance.

If the roads were nicer and the areas of the town were cleaner and better maintained, I think San Felipe has the potential to be a very nice weekend getaway...

Love to hang around here and chill. Morning to evening things change. I'd say about 5pm especially towards the weekend there's more street vendors and live street singing.

A few stray dogs running around but they mind their own business or if you want to throw them some food cause they hungry. Late Jan early February we are here so it must still be in off season.
