La Cueva del Pirata
Hotel & Restaurant - Bar
Camalu, Baja California

"La Cueva del Pirata Hotel" [Pirate's Cave Hotel] is in Camalu, Baja California. The hotel
is fabulous for a vacation. Calmness and serenity are my feelings here at this lovely place.
The hotel sits on a bluff above the Pacific Ocean at the north end of the Bay of San Ramon.

Surfing is very popular off the ocean's point in front of the hotel. The rollers often
break just right for a long surfboard ride.
The upper floor in the picture above is under construction. Work in progress is typical
construction custom in Mexico. Construction takes much longer in Mexico than the USA. The
owners of the hotel are busy during the winter of 2004 putting in a swimming pool however.
This swimming pool is scheduled for completion before the summer of 2006.
The restaurant includes outdoor dining with a wonderful view of the ocean. Umbrellas over
the several tiled tables protect you from the sun. You see the waves rolling in, and hear
the soft sound of surf in the distance.

The "La Cueva del Pirata Restaurant" specializes in different mariscos [seafood],
including lobster, shrimp, clams and fish. The menu has a large selection of
beef, steaks and chicken. All foods are expertly prepared by Chef Roberto.
The prices of all supper dishes are between $6US and $16US. The Pirata's menu prices are
an excellent bargain, in my opinion.

Directions:
When you arrive in the Town of Camalu, proceed to the Pemex gas station, and turn west onto
the dirt road just north of the Pemex. The road is a bit bumpy in places, so drive slowly.
In a little over a mile, you will see the Pacific Ocean. The road begins gradually turning
to the right. Keep going as the road rises and falls a bit. You will now be very close
to the Ocean which is on the left side of the dirt road. Soon you will see the hotel up the
hill.
The distance from the border at Tijuana to the La Cueva del Pirata Hotel in the Town of
Camalu, is approximately 175 miles.
