Directions from San Diego
Getting to Club Marena is a short 30
minute drive from
the
San Diego
border.
Cross
the
border
into Mexico from I-5 or I-805 and once you
are inside the border get in the far right lane. About 200 yards from the border the road climbs a small rise and then merges with another lane. Cross over to the far right and take the first right side exit to Rosarito and Ensenada.
After merging with the main road it
parallels the border for about two miles, then
heads up and down a steep hill where you will
be alerted to exit to the right. The sign for
this road will be "Toll Road" or "Scenic
Road." Keep in the left lane to avoid the exit into Tijuana shores. Two miles later you will pass through
the toll gate. Tolls are around $2.50 and the
toll areas all have clean restrooms.
Rosarito is located about eight miles down
the toll road.
There are four exits into Rosarito. Take the
last exit just before the second toll gate,
21 miles from the border. There is a sign there
that reads, "La Paloma, Popotla, Calafia,
Las Rocas."
Note: If you miss
the last Rosarito exit for the free road (and
it is easy to miss, so watch carefully). At
the second toll gate, there is a Pemex gas
station and an AM-PM Mini Market. It looks
identical to the ones in the U.S. (and sells
the same kind of stuff). You can drive through
its parking lot (without having to pay another
toll) to the free road from there. Make a left
turn on the free road to Club Marena..
Once you pass Foxploration (Fox Studios) on
your right you're about a mile away. Look
out for the tall white buildings on your right
just after the bridge..
(If you miss the exit and go through the second
toll gate, drive to the next exit south. This
exit will read "Puerto Nuevo." Get
off the toll road here. Turn right at the intersection
to take the free road heading north to Rosarito.)
