Laguna Manuela
A small lagoon and fishing village beach about 25 km north of Guerrero Negro. Fishing, shell collecting and bird watching draw locals here for weekend picnics.
Laguna Manuela lies about 25 km north of Guerrero Negro. It is a small lagoon connected to the Pacific, with a simple fishermen's camp and a long sandy beach along the shore. When the water is calm you can wade, fish, and from the nearby headland watch flocks of seabirds and the occasional dolphin. A 10 km dirt road leads off Highway 1. Regular cars can reach it, but must drive slowly. Facilities are basic, so it suits visitors with their own vehicle and a half-day to spare. During peak season, small stalls occasionally sell seafood.
