Cool Camping in Mexico

I have noticed that a lot of you want to camp in Mexico but can't find or don`t know where there are campsites. we just spent 4 nights in San Miguel de Allende and it cost $140 pesos a night for 2 people. The camp site is called La Siesta and is a Hotel/Trailer Park it is very close to Downtown on the Libramento a Celaya.

The place has hot showers, a restaurant and a swimming pool.

If you want to find places to camp try a search Mexico Trailer Parks Camping and you should find lots of options. RV parks in Mexico are normally called Trailer Parks and a llot of them will let you put up a tent.

Hope this helps.

yes camping

Hi,
There is even a Trailer park right in the middle of Acapulco which is very cheap. I forget the name though. We stayed there in a tent, with our own shower(cold) and toilet on Ney Years eve.

i enjoyed camping on the beaches in mexico, and it's free. ask the locals and use common sense. if possible, find someone else who is also camping and become their friend. in a larger place, like tampico, you can make friends with the cops who patrol the beaches. if you can't find a spot that feels reasonably safe, find a cheap hotel.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
