It slips back and forth between the two. You can do it on smaller roads but not all of them are paved. (maybe now they are, but dirt roads happen down there) The Pacific is beautiful.
Tijuana just because, but you'll hate yourself. Watch your wallet. Get out of Zona Norte/La Coahuila, too many pinche Gringos.
Stop in Tecate for the brewery. Tecate, even though it has proximity to Tijuana and San Diego, is a different place. Pretty mountains. Call the brewery ahead of time - 011-52-6659490 to get a tour arranged. The beer is better - Tecate export is brewed in Monterrey; different water = different beer. I liked the Tecate down there better than the case packs I bought at Costco. Fresh and delicious.
I liked Ensenada. Lobster tacos.
Go to San Felipe. Vacation destination. All kinds of water sports (I don't mean the German kind) Awesome fish tacos.
Do you dive? If so, Gulfo de California offers some great diving. Come out of San Felipe/Delicias on the north end. Down further Go to Loreto.
Of course... Cabo. Cabo is amazing. Diving, surfing, food and weather. Yeah baby! There are little towns to poke around in down there like Todos Santos. Bring your belly, there are more restaurants than paved roads.
A buddy used to go to Cabo and Bahia Escorpion for surfing. If you surf this is a top tier destination.
Fish fish and fish man. Fish tacos, fish burritos, fried fish, fish stew... You'll wonder why you are heading back to Murica after about 2 weeks down there. I know I did.
Most of this was a long time ago but much of it hasn't changed. If I remember anything Ill repost.

Tecate is worth the visit? It crossed my mind but seems out of the way just to visit a brewery.

That's it for now. Posting via phone is annoying.
