California dreaming: Two new maps for the Baja region of Mexico are out from National Geographic, one on Baja North and one on Baja South, offering information for adventurous travelers who need details on terrain, local routes, ferry routes and even locations of gas and diesel stations.
They are part of National Geographic’s AdventureMaps series, which also include maps on Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic and Panama. A new map for the Yucatan will be released early this year.
The Baja maps, printed on waterproof and tear-resistant material, cover the entire Baja Peninsula and include detailed insets of Mexicali, Ensenada, Tijuana, La Paz, San Jose Del Cabo, Cabo San Lucas and the Cabo Resort Corridor. They can be viewed online at www.natgeomaps.com/bajanorth.html and www.natgeomaps.com/bajasouth.html and cost $11.95 each or $19.95 for the pair.
The maps also show government facilities, UNESCO World Heritage sites, parks and nature reserves and locations for surfing, diving, fishing and sailing.
