Sandra's is one of the most popular restaurants. La Califia is the next big stop. This beautiful hotel is a Mexican historical landmark on the water that serves outrageous rum and tequila-type cocktail and appetizers overlooking the ocean. The bartender, Ramses, has an interesting story about his Egyptian family connections. LaFonda, a beachside bar and hotel, is a drink spot with good food and one of Baja's best Sunday brunches.
Prices are moderate to expensive.
La Salina, where an alleged marina is eventually going to be built, is a rough-looking dive bar and restaurant. It serves a gigantic Filet Mignon for about 100 pesos. Dogs and cats roam around the bar as freely as the human patrons. The bartender, Jorge, has been there forever, and can set you up with a room if you decide this is where you want to toss out your anchor for a day or so. Golf enthusiasts have two seaside courses at the Baja Mar off-ramp around KM78.
