Alfonsina?s Resort

Alfonsina?s resort is located in Gonzaga Bay, approximately 100 miles South of San Felipe and 48 tough miles South of Puertecitos. The roads have had a reputation for being somewhat difficult, so we recommend that if you are planning to visit us you do your travel in a Sport Utility Vehicle (S.U.V.), plane or boat. Folks that make it to Alfonsina?s fall in love with it and its people, and usually return again and again. It?s just a Baja paradise. The large front bay faces the Sea of Cortez, and it?s the main bay for all aquatic activities: fishing, diving, sailing, kayaking, off-roading. There is no surfing but you can wind surf at this great Baja paradise. Give your significant other memories that will last a life time. The large Southernmost bay of Alfonsina?s goes on for miles of beautiful beaches!

Gonzaga bay is an excellent harbor for those who arrive by boat, and there are two airstrips for private pilots who choose to fly in.

Gonzaga Bay

Alfonsina?s Resort has one of the largest bays facing the Sea of Cortez. There are miles and miles of beautiful white sandy beaches and the pace in Alfonsina?s allows for certain recreational opportunities. You won?t hear any wave runners screaming by on the water @50 miles per hour, although the bay seems to beg for just such an adventure. Water sports that are more in tune with the natural environment seem much more enjoyable.

Snorkeling and scuba diving can be enjoyed in the large bay, and by following the rocky bay from Alfonsina?s to Cactus Point one can find many places to enjoy the interesting underwater scenery.

The waters around Alfonsina?s are absolutely perfect for kayaking. Using Alfonsina?s as base camp, excursions around the island or around the bay are wonderful ways to spend a couple of hours. For the serious kayaker that wants to cover some real territory, a trip over to Punta Final and back is a great adventure.

The road south of Alfonsina?s offers great off-roading. For a short adventure, the dirt road to Punta Final is fun. For a longer trek, heading out towards Coco?s corner (a half mile South) and then to the coast is another good destination. The gravel road from Gonzaga Bay connects to the Transpeninsular Highway, South of Catabiña.

The two short bay of San Luis Gonzaga and Alfonsina?s is an excellent place to drop anchor. Both bays offer sandy bottoms. Although the North Bay gets shallow relatively quickly, it offers enough draft to get enough into the bay to escape the prevailing winds. The South bay has sufficient depth all the way in, and also offers a couple of inside coves for even greater wind protection.

For emergencies and general information, Alfonsina?s often monitors the marine band channel ?22?.

Air Strip

With main gravel road brings most Baja travelers to Alfonsina?s Resort, we also have an 850 meter air strip that brings in the rest. There are no public forms of transportation available. The lack of easy access is the one element that has helped Alfonsina?s Resort to be a virgin retreat full of tranquility.
