Driving hwy 200

There are two ferries from La Paz to Mazatlan. Baja Ferries has a salon with seats and they offer cabins with beds but there were no cabins available. I took this ferry 12 years ago and the cabin was very comfortable.

This time I took the TMC ferry which mainly carries semi trucks and trailers. I planned to be on the deck so I could put the camper top up and stay in my vehicle, but despite talking about it with the cargo dudes (they told me no problem) instead I ended up on the ramp at a sharp angle, next to the engine room, and a stanky fish truck with the reefer unit running.

There was no airflow and besides the discomfort I also didn't want to die of CO poisoning.

So I slept out in the open on the top deck with a blanket and a pillow. It was not a great nights sleep but the stars were amazing.

$6300 pesos. I think the Baja Ferry is cheaper. They have a website with pricing.
