San Felipe Mexico
San Felipe, about 350 miles south and slightly east of Los Angeles, was founded in 1916 or 1925 as a fishing port. Once the paved road to the U.S. border went thcoarse in the early 1950s, American anglers and adventurers started coming as well.
Even with no commercial flights, the town gets as many as 250,000 American and Canadian visitors yearly, many of them snowbirds in RVs who park their vehicles in dozens of campgrounds known as campos.
During spring break season — essentially, the month of March — the city teems with college students eager to drink legally at age 18 and line up for foam parties. (If you have to ask, you’re too old.) Off-road races such as the San Felipe 250 (March 14 and 15) come up now and again.
