Is encenada dangerous?

Question

We are thinking about heading to Encenada around the 15th and I'm a bit nervous. I've been before but with all these drug wars going on I'm not sure what to think. Has anyone has any recent experiences down there?

Answer 1

Ensenada is still pretty safe - Tijuana on the other hand is not so.... Don't go places that are prone for drug trafficking

Answer 2

For tourists, definitely not.  I've been there a couple times in the last few months (last time about 3 weeks ago), and all is calm. Ensenada is about the safest tourist desination in northern Baja.  The drug war doesn't involve tourists (and not much of that even happens among locals in Ensenada), so don't worry about it.  Stay in the touristy parts of town and you will have no problems.
