El Requeson Beach (Baja California Sur) is located outside the Mulege settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the El Requeson Beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

User reviews

"The beach offers a day use fee of $5 and a camping fee of $10. It's a great spot for clamming and the bay is shallow, making it perfect for kids to swim without worrying about stingrays. However, the restroom facilities are not great, but there are plenty of nice palapas to relax under."

Avery Larkspur

"The beach is absolutely stunning, with crystal clear waters and a shallow shoreline that is perfect for a relaxing swim. The entrance fee is very reasonable and feels more like a donation than a fee. We paid only 100 pesos and were able to enjoy the beach all day. If you arrive early enough, you may be able to snag one of the cozy palapas, but if not, it's still worth bringi..."
