Sandwiched between the Pacific and the Sea of Cortez, Baja California is a peninsula along the west coast of Mexico that stretches for almost 800 miles across desert and mountain, between sea and ocean. This incredible expanse is divided into two states—Baja Sur and Baja Norte—connected by the Trans peninsular Highway (Highway 1). This route is considered one of the great road trips in the U.S. (and who doesn’t like road trips!) for its spectacular scenery, isolated stretches, and the cattle that sometimes meander along the road with you. Famous for its wine, beaches, marine life, and get-away-from-it-all vibe, Baja sends its siren call to free spirits around the world..
