I read about this place in the Baja handbook and decided to take off with my wife on a low budget quick trip from LA back in 1994. I couldn't make telephone contact, and got response from a letter, so we just winged it as far as a place to stay was concerned. I asked about Bahia in the last town before the cutoff and the man told me all I had to do when I got to town was ask for "El Choboso" (the big wind!). Well, I did, and I was directed to Casa Diaz. Back then it was about the only place in town to stay. We negotiated a rate and when I asked for a key he smiled and pointed to a plywood board with little hooks and magic marker room numbers and no keys. OK, no keys. The room was primitive, but had a functioning bathroom, and was cheap. We ate at taco stands and drank Pacifico from the big bottles from the grocery store. We met an American couple at Guillermo's (a great bar/restaurant) who invited us back to their house - a blue bus on the beach. We drank their Ouzo, danced on the beach and swam. The guy still sends my wife letters every so often. I guess he fell in love with her. You could get a guy to take drop you off at a deserted island in the morning and pick you up in the afternoon for about $30 (in 1994). No one else on the whole island. Bring some food, run around au natural, etc. Great deal. I'm going back next month. Bahia is about 40 miles off the main Baja highway and the road back then could be a real car wrecker. Just when you think it's OK to go over 30 WHAM! horrible potholes. Also, no power after 6 or 7pm back then. Enjoy.
