Description

The Best Mexico Hostel for “Old Baja Adventure!”
Located on the rugged baja coastline of Erendira, Baja California, 78 kilometers south of Ensenada Hostels and only a (4) hour drive from San Diego.
Coyote Cal’s is a costal destination for Baja off-road Motorsports. Great food, friendly service, clean lodging, and a fun time at the Barefoot bar are unmatched. Click to the Baja Motorsports page for more information on meals, Thai Massage, Fuel and parts, Group Services, Night life and accommodations.
Our in house masseuse taught Thai massage for ten years in Thailand. For the last nine years she has been working on the aches and pains of motorsport riders. Adapting Thai massage to our rider’s needs, her reputation as a sports therapist is world renown.
Now, If you've got salt water running through your veins and love Mexico deep sea fishing in Baja California, Then Erendira fishing at Coyote Cal's is the place to be. Clean lodging and kitchen facilities.
Also Surfing K-181, Punta Cabras and the Punta San Isidro area near Coyote Cal’s hostel, is one of Baja’s best kept surfing secrets. Safe, un-crowded and mainly deserted beaches with reef-breaks, sandy coves and long sandy breaks offer excellent year around surfing in all conditions.

At our barefoot bar we serve Pacific, Corona, Negor Modelo, Modelo Especial, XX lager, and Tecate beer along with all your favorite mixed drinks. Our tequila bar has over 80 different tequilas. One of the best selections in Baja! Open between 10am to 2am with happy hour is between 5:00pm through 6:00pm. (Note: Store bought alcohol is not allowed in the bar area.) Free camp fires on Friday and Saturday are favorite times with our guest. WiFi is available to all guests, including campers, in the bar area. The Thai massage spa is located next to the bar and is out of this world. Plus, Full kitchen services are available. There are local stores near the hostel to buy food inexpensively. The best day to shop is Saturday! I suggest you stop in Ensenada at a local supermarket, "Calimax" or "Soriana" and pick up what you need there. Suggested items to buy are: meat, chicken, veggies, fruits, pastas, juices, milk, cereals, salsa, lemons, bread, pastries and tortillas. Fish and crab are fresh and cheap here. Plan on one meal of fish! There is one great restaurant "Gloria's”. You can't go wrong eating there!
Coyote Cal's! Experience the Magic! Our own private little beach, with soft silky sand is as close as the front door. Dance the night away in front of our fantastic airbrushed underwater scene created by famed Mexican artist Armando Alonzo Gonzales. Señor Gonzales' work is known from Ensenada, to Mazatlan to Cancun. He has graced the walls of Hussongs, Papas and Beer, Rockodile and Senor Frogs and we are proud to be a part of this gifted artists repertoire.

Location and Contact

Location

• How do I get to Coyote Cal's Mexico Hostels by car?
• Getting Though the San Diego/TJ Border: You can take ether interstate 5 or the 805 to approach the Tijuana Mexican border crossing. As you approach the border, be careful of the United States crossing. There are several divided lanes used by Homeland security, and at the beginning of each lane is a cement end cap. Many people hit these cement end caps and damage their cars or injure themselves, go slowly!
• The new TJ crossing has moved about 100 yards to the west. As you make your turn to the inspection booths stay to the left, then make a sharp left when you clear the corridor. You will choose the “Nada Que Declara” if you have nothing to declare. Each person is allowed duty free $400.00 of new items. Construction items, more than three items of the same thing, or electronics, (personal computer or phone is except), are not duty free. This does not include food. You will stop at the booth. If you get a green light you may pass without further inspection, if you get a red light you are required to park in the secondary inspection area. Even if you get a green light, an officer may motion you into secondary, you must obey the officer. Be truthful to the officers, they are professional, kind and reasonable. (Drugs, guns and ammo are illegal, each person my bring three liters of alcohol without duty).
• (If you need a tourist Visa this is the place to get it! You do not need a tourist visa if you are only going to Coyote Cal’s. Instead of staying to the left you will stay to the right and choose the farthest “Nada Que Declars” line to the right. Once you pass through the inspection gate, park off to the right and walk to the window that issues tourist visas. The bank is just down the hall and is open 24 hours. It is fast and convenient).
• As you pass through the check station, stay to your left. When you turn the corner you will see a sign that says: “Paseo de las Heros” and “Playas de Tijuana”. This is the lane you want. You will drive over the bridge, once over the bridge stay to your right and drive towards Costo, it will be seen on your right. Driving Through Tijuana to Ensenada: You are now on “Paseo de las Heros”. Continue to drive straight. The first traffic light will be “H.Marquez le Leon” you will pass straight through. Move into the right lane if you are not there already. The second traffic signal is a traffic circle with a big “V”. The cross street is called “Independenica” When you get the green light, follow the traffic circle until you get to the other side. Stay on “Paseo de las Heros”. You will now approach a flashing yellow pedestrian signal. You will also see a sign: “Aeroperto/Ensenada”. You will make a right turn between a blue bank called “BBVA Bancomer and a red bank called “Banorte”. You are now on Hwy 1 libre.
• Driving Through Ensenada and on to the Coyote Cal’s turnoff: You are now on 1st street. You will see a sign that says: “San Quintin / Malecon”, drive down 1st , (1.2) miles , turn left at the traffic signal, the cross street is “Gral. Agustin Sangines” . There will be a “Pemex on the left and a Casino cattycorner of the intersection. Drive (.5) miles to the second traffic light and turn right at the “Office Depot/Soriana” stores. You are now back on Hwy 1 libre. This road will take you all the way to the Coyote Cal’s turnoff. There will be some road construction in the Santo Tomas area, take it easy on the detours. Drive south on Hwy 1 for (43.0) miles for the Coyote Cal’s turnoff. It will be right after the 78 kilometer maker located on the side of the hwy. Here are some points of interest along this 43 mile stretch. The road to Coyote Cal’s is 20 kilometers of very good paved road and three kilometers of graded dirt road. You will have to take care, (10.0) miles or just after the 16 kilometer marker, at the first speed bump. It was made incorrectly and you must stop or drive around it to avoid damaging your car. (The town has eight speed bumps and all require you to take it easy over them. There are three as you enter Erendira, two at the food processing plant, just outside of the main strip, and three at the school.) At (10.5) miles is the first stop sign and the old police station. You will get as much as a $100 ticket if you don’t stop! At (10.7) miles is “Juanita Mercado” the best grocery store in town. The hostel has full kitchen facilities so buy your grub here! The pavement ends at (11.7) miles or the 20 kilometer marker. The next 100 yards there is a very dangerous cliff. Stay to the right and be aware of the edge. At (12.5) miles is Castro’s Camp and the Fish Market located at the top of the boat ramp. Fish is fresh and cheap. You can now see the hostel in the distance, a white building with large palms. Continue and stay to your right until the last telephone pole. You made it!
