Baja The Other Side
If you’re looking for a winter getaway and want to do Baja without “roughing it,” the Palapas Ventana resort on La Ventana Bay, Baja California Sur, fits the bill. Palapas Ventana caters to those who want full service combined with the unique rustic atmosphere of small-town Mexico. Its unique location in the curve of La Ventana bay provides side/onshore winds with a lee side beach that provides safe landing for downwind drifters.
There’s also easy access to a reef break directly in front of the resort that provides excellent wave sailing and jumping on big El Norte days, when winds are often in excess of 30 mph. Typical days boast winds of 17-25 mph, and the typical La Ventana quiver ranges from about 6.0 to 4.0.
Palapas Ventana’s accommodations are uniquely Mexican. Guests reside in an authentic Mexican casita with a hand-built palm-frond roof (a palapa), set amid native Baja desert plants, and each provides a full water view. Specialty casitas include a full bathroom with beautiful Mexican tile work, air conditioning, a ceiling fan and a water purifier.
For your non-windsurfing family members, Palapas Ventana offers other exciting activities, including hiking, fishing, scuba diving, sailing, kayaking and surfing, in addition to beginner windsurfing lessons. Kiteboarding lessons can be arranged as well.
