I was there in June and will return for Halloween. Check with your insurance company about coverage into Mexico. I have USAA and Progressive which covers collision and comprehensive up to 75 miles south of the border. Mexicans are concerned only with liability, so I got online and bought a liability only policy for Mexico-saving a lot of money. I have driven there several times alone with friends meeting me later. Highway is good and well marked. The only tricky part is crossing Mexico 2. Signs to Puerto Penasco are well marked, and you bear off to the right after crossing highway 2(watch out for trucks).Watch your speed going through town- about 20 mph, and keep a lookout for frequent stop signs. I prefer the Reef RV Park, where you have a good chance of a spot next to the beach. They have full hookups and good WiFi, along with 2 restaurants. Playa Bonita is good, but beach front sites are always booked. If you get chosen for random inspection at the border, just have your registration papers ready and accompany the inspector into your rig. A smile and graciousness is always appreciated. You will have a great time!
