Getting to Ensenada

Ensenada is a great place to visit but how are you getting to Ensenada?

Going to Ensenada by Car Across the Border from San Ysidro
Once in the Mexican side, drive in the right lane. Follow the signs that read "Rosarito/Ensenada".

You will merge with the road that runs along the USA-México border that will be at your right.

After a steeped hill follow the "Rosarito/Ensenada Cuota" signs.

Three toll booths are along the "Rosarito/Ensenada Cuota" scenic road. One immediately after you leave the steeped hill, in Playas de Tijuana.

The second one is at the southern tip of Rosarito where there is a gas station. From there you may choose to drive either the same toll road or the "free road" which is a paved narrow road offering you the opportunity to visit Puerto Nuevo, La Misión and other charming seaside villages at your own peace.

The third toll booth is in San Miguel, located a few miles before you reach Ensenada downtown. Getting there by car will take you about 90 minutes from the border.
