No, I am not getting affiliate earnings from these recommendations. Living here I feel Ensenada has everything for a high-quality life, but the things are hidden in networks of friends and family circles. As a new arrival or tourist, you would not likely find these things through simple search.

I moved to Ensenada 15 years ago in 2011 in search of a simpler, healthier life after burnout, heartbreak, and cancer—and ended up building a life and business here that I truly love.

I started Ensenada Massage to create a space for relaxation and wellness, which later expanded into Valle Mobile Spa, serving travelers across Valle de Guadalupe and the Baja coast.

After experiencing cruise travel firsthand, I saw how limited and crowded shore excursions could be. That led to the creation of Ensenada Excursions & Tours, focused on private, flexible experiences and reliable transportation—so guests can enjoy Ensenada safely, comfortably, and on their own terms.

Today, our team also provides private transportation throughout Baja, including pickups from San Diego and Tijuana through Baja Tours & Transport, helping travelers explore the region with ease.

I split my time between Ensenada and San Diego, usually near the ocean, and still spend as much time as I can exploring Baja by road.

When I’m not working, you’ll find me swimming, playing harmonica, attempting capoeira, or listening to audiobooks on health, mindset, and personal growth.

If you have questions about Ensenada, your cruise stop, or planning the perfect day here—feel free to reach out.
