Puerto Nuevo sits around kilometer 44 of the Tijuana–Ensenada free road, south of downtown Rosarito. What began as a handful of fishermen’s houses is now a must-stop for its lobster with beans, rice and flour tortillas.
What the area is like
- Atmosphere. Quieter than downtown Rosarito; touristy on weekends.
- Landscape. Hills sloping toward the sea, with open views.
- Access. The free road and the scenic toll road, with a nearby exit.
- Services. Restaurants, shops and hotels in the village; supermarkets and hospitals in Rosarito.
Who it’s for
People looking for a getaway or retirement home with a view and without city bustle, and anyone thinking of a business tied to corridor tourism.
Nearby developments
Between Rosarito and Puerto Nuevo you’ll find Praderas del Coronel (200 m² residential and commercial lots) and, slightly north in the Calafia area, Santa Isabel del Mar.
