Puerto Salina, Pacific beach near Tijuana, Mexico.
Puerto Salina is a beach roughly 73 kilometers south of Tijuana featuring wide sandy stretches and coastal mountains rising above the Pacific Ocean. The marina contains 250 slips designed to accommodate vessels up to 30 meters in length.
This area marked Mexico's first Pacific marina development south of the United States border and established new maritime connections between both countries. The site opened the region to further economic and tourism activities along the coastline.
The beach draws water sports enthusiasts and nature watchers who gather here to observe the annual gray whale migration passing along the coast.
The location is easily accessible, though tidal effects can limit water access at low tide. Check tidal tables before visiting to find the best time for your intended activities.
Puerto Cielo at La Salina Del Mar operates as a flight sports center for paragliding and hang gliding in the area. Many pilots are drawn here by stable thermal currents and favorable wind conditions over the coastal mountains.
