We have some new stories in this Insider Update regarding some charitable events on the horizon that you should mark on your calendar if you are going to be in the Los Cabos area.
The weather has remained particularly warm this winter, but we may have a taste of winter coming soon, particularly in Baja California, where a cold front is forecast for early next week. We have yet to develop the endless series of northers that we had last year and the weather has been quite pleasant. For the up to date conditions in La Paz, check out our live weather station located on the breakwater at CostaBaja.
To encourage travel to all of Baja we will soon be launching our Baja is for Everyone campaign. If you haven't been to Baja in a while, you will find our travel providers are more than anxious to serve. If you are a travel provider or any business that would appeal to those that travel and live in Baja on a regular basis, now is your opportunity to contact our sales department and participate in this campaign to let travelers know how affordable and fun a trip to Baja can be.
