I admittingly found this by accident last year. I was attending a wedding reception in town and had no idea this festival was going on. After the reception we went to El Malecon for some food and drink; mostly drink..
and realized that something big was going on. We really enjoyed the festival. So worth the 6 hour drive form LA.. See ya’ll there!
Hi my husband wants to go to the shrimp festival but I’m really scared of the drive… Is it safe to drive through mexicalli???
Thank you
Yes, just obey all the traffic signs and speeds. Don’t pay any officer, but I think you’ll be fine. You’ll be safe and if you are stopped, try and get a photo. Don’t worry; it’s going to be a great time.
You will be fine, I drive a yukon with cali plates and don’t have any problems while in mexicali.. like kat said, obey all laws and you will be fine… by the way, in mexicali a yellow light means stop! Don’t run a yellow!
Remember this is not only a unique culinary experience but a celebration of the lifestyle of the fisherman of San Felipe and their tireless efforts to bring in the shrimp for the festival and the masses
Yum! Hoping to make it down for the festival. Last time I went to San Felipe I brought home four pounds of shrimp and ate like a king.
El año pasado mi familia y su servidor tuvimos la oportunidad de disfrutar a lo grande de este hermoso festival del camaron y deseamos que continue por muchisimos años mas.Mi familia pregunta si en el programa artistico estara uevamente el imitador del Rey del Rock ELVIS PRESLEY,ya que todos disfrutamos de su espectacular show que esta a la altura de LAS VEGAS. Creo me dijeron el artista es de Ensenada y su nombre artistico es Miguel Rey. Espero respuesta por favor si alguien sabe algo al respecto. Gracias

Keep a copy of this in all your vehicles and do not hesitate to give it to any police officers stopping you and demanding to charge a fine in site or pretending to retain your vehicle for minor violations:
