|Hotel Playa Azul |W102°21'13.1" | |waste dump, supposed to have WiFi, neglected toilets and cold |

| | | |showers = not really recommended! |

| | | |when we were there (second week of Semana Santa) the hotel was |

| | | |absolutely packed with Mexican families and noisy, only one spot |

| | | |to park our truck... |

|Zihuatanejo, Playa La |N 17°37'34.9" |$180 / day |rear parking lot of restaurant, walled and gated at night, end of|

| | | |waste dump, only few meters to nice calm beach, free WiFi in |

| | | |restaurant, which is shaded and gets cool breeze, serving |

| | | |excellent seafood dishes (not cheap, but highly recommended!). no|

|Acapulco |N 16°54'11.6" |$300 !! |Playa Pie de la Cuesta (north east), ocean front in sea mist, |

|Acapulco Trailer Park |W099°58'34.3" | |under cocos palms, good shade, cool breeze, loud surf, beach too |

| | | |storage one end, noisy karaoke bar in an open lean-to on wall the|

| | | |other end, traffic noise, and also some bus and truck parking on |

| | | |sites, waste dumps at some sites, green pool, dirty old toilets |

| | | |w. warm showers, some good shade. |

|Puerto Escondido |N 15°51'46.2" |$100 |small lot near bridge, probably 4-6 usable sites, hot, no breeze,|

|Cabañas de Cortes |W097°03'34.8" | |noisy over night from restaurant music, and roosters, and dogs, |

| | | |overall neglected impression = DON'T STAY HERE! |

| | | |some power points on trees, dirty brown water, waste dumps, |

| | | |little shade, filthy or un-usable toilets (bucket flush) and cold|

| | | |showers |

|Puerto Escondido |[- forgot -] |$150 w/o air |Cabañas de Cortes is on inland side of the main hwy, to reach |

|Palmas de Cortes |read description |$ 250 with a/c |this campground you turn at the same intersection down towards |

| | | |the beach, when you reach the pedestrian zone turn left into lane|

| | | |(some shops on left) and turn directly right into the lot (tight |

| | | |turn), public parking, public baños, and campground all in one! |

| | | |same manager as above. |

| | | |[pic] |

| | | |the beach front site is covered with cocos palms, decent shade, |

| | | |tight turns and sites, very good breeze (at ocean front), 5-7°C |

| | | |cooler than CdC, fishing boats and clean fish stalls (no smell) |

| | | |just outside the fence, long trip to shopping and mercado |

| | | |24 hour attendant, but poor security, power, water, stupid little|

| | | |waste dumps, the second cleanest toilets we have found at a |

| | | |camping site in Mexico, cold showers, on weekend nights some |

| | | |noise from nearby bars, but otherwise nice... |

| | | |TIP: buy some fresh tuna filets from the fish stalls just outside|

| | | |the gate = cheap & yummy! |

|Puerto Angel, Playa |N 15°39'56.0" |$100 / person |new campground as part of large property, mango and fruit |

|Zipolite |W096°31'10.9" | |plantation, some luxurious cabañas, lovely large pool (cleaned |

|Rancho Los Mangos | | |every day), grassed and lush gardens, very friendly managers |

| | | |power, water, waste dumps (not at all sites), use of the clean |

| | | |pool side toilets and cold showers, some good shade (and falling |

| | | |mangoes), not much breeze, 3 blocks to beach, 2 blocks to shops |

| | | |and restaurants, very quiet, recommended! |

|Oaxaca |N 17°04'42.9" |$150 |its days are numbered: the site is being developed with office |

|Oaxaca Trailer Park |W096°42'38.2" | |buildings and car parking, when we visited there were only 7 |

| | | |(maybe 10) usable sites left! |

| | | |power, water (at some sites), waste dumps, toilets w. (mostly) |

| | | |hot showers, caretaker needs reminder to clean facilities, some |

| | | |good shade, noise at night from nearby live music, convenient to |

| | | |shopping and buses into town |

|Mitla |N 16°55'43.7" |free |level parking lot at entrance gate to ruins, in suburban |

|carpark at ruins |W096°21'32.3" | |location, some noise from roaming dogs (and teenagers), o.k. for |

| | | |one night! |

| | | |during opening hours use of clean toilets at cashier of ruins |

| | | |possible |

|La Ventosa |N 16°32'48.6" |free, hot showers |this was our first night at a PEMEX, and we picked the wrong one:|

|PEMEX station |W094°56'58.3" |$12 / person |busy intersection nearby, trucks coming and going all night = no |

| | | |sleep at all! the campgrounds in Tehuantepec, which we passed |

| | | |before, appeared unusable... |

| | | |only plus: the restrooms and showers were maintained pleasantly |

| | | |clean |

|Puerto Arista |N 15°55'52.3" |$40 / person |friendly canadian-mexican owned property at south-east end of |

|Jose's Cabañas & Camping |W093°48'03.3" |+ $20 f. a/c use |town. the small town was almost dead at the time of our stay, not|

| | | |many options even for basic shopping, o.k. beach with rough surf |

| | | |and some palapa restaurants |

| | | |tents o.k., you might get power from some power points at the |

| | | |cabañas, water can be filled near main gate, the only waste dump |

| | | |(behind toilet block) is difficult to reach due to low trees, the|

| | | |basic toilets and showers are kept very clean! this is a hot spot|

| | | |with too little shade = we didn't stay long |

|Chiapa de Corzo |N 16°42'29.5" |free |we first tried to stay within the one-way street system going |

|Zócalo |W093°01'03.3" | |around the zócalo, but passing traffic was too close to get rest,|

| | | |I then moved to the only 2-way section along the road coming up |

| | | |from the boat launching area, which didn't had many cars passing |

| | | |through... o.k. sleep from a bit before midnight until 5am when |

| | | |the cleaning crews arrived |

| | | |there could be a quieter spot (with good breeze) behind the |

| | | |cathedral (enter between mercado and cathedral, go down to T |

| | | |intersection, turn right), small park with large trees, almost |

| | | |above stairs down to the boat launching area, but the access to |

| | | |this place is very tight (walk it first)! |

|San Christobal de Las |N 16°44'02.2" |$50 / person |large property at the outskirts of town, access roads through |

|Casas |W092°37'19.2" |$25 / kid |town are narrow, almost rural setting, green, lots of trees and |

|Rancho San Nicolás | | |grass, some cabañas and communal kitchen, good spot to meet other|

| | | |travellers, long walk (almost ¾ hour) into town, cool to cold |

| | | |nights, cabañas are cheap and tenting would be rather cold o/n, |

| | | |mostly quiet, some nights barking dogs... |

| | | |power (reverse polarity), water, waste dumps to about 6 sites, |

| | | |old, but o.k. toilets and hot showers |

| | | |2010 – We were told that the route though town was too tight for |

| | | |our rig (8.5ft wide) so we found an alternative way in via the |

| | | |Perifico. Coming north on 190 turn right onto the Perifico at XX|

| | | |and then drive until YY (about 4 kms) and then turn sharp left |

| | | |onto dirt road. You’ll probably have to go further down the road|

| | | |and u-turn. The site is tight for larger rigs - I’d guess 30ft |

| | | |would be the max. Toilets are flush by bucket, showers okay |

| | | |and WiFi is no longer free. $280 per night for us - $70 per |

| | | |person including kids. |

|Tonina near Ocosingo |  |  |this is one place where we did NOT STAY! we were told by other |

|Parking lot of ruins | | |travellers that they had stayed here early this year, but we were|

| | | |sent away by security guards; there are cabañas just up the road,|

| | | |and we get the impression that the owner works hand-in-hand with |

| | | |the guards. at the cabañas you can camp for $100, but don't get |

| | | |much except some very uneven ground (too slopey) and the use of |

| | | |toilets... |

|Agua Azul |N 17°15'26.0" |entry $10 / person|we felt safe here (despite other reports). not overly busy during|

|Parking lot |W092°06'51.6" | |weekdays, very quiet over night: all you hear is the water |

| | | |rushing down the rapids. there are some decent low(!) shade trees|

| | | |and the water cools the place down a bit over night. |

| | | |use of toilets ($3) and cold showers ($5) during daytime hours |

| | | |(locked over night). |

|Palenque |N 17°29'14.9" |$150 w.power |large property with trailer park, restaurant (live music), large |

|Mayabell |W092°02'17.5" |[less w/o power] |pool, lovely gardens, some good shade. tents o.k., cabañas to |

| | | |rent (some air-conditioned!), quiet during nights, but busy w. |

| | | |Mexicans over the weekend. only 2 kms to ruins, uphill, so take a|

| | | |collectivo (we didn't and regretted it!). |

| | | |power (voltage too high?), water, dumps too high, large |

| | | |clean(-ish) bathrooms w. hot showers. |

|Frontera Corozal |N 16°49'22.2" |free *) |*) first we were asked to pay $150 with use of bathrooms, $100 to|

|Escudo Jaguar |W090°53'07.9" | |stay with no facilities, which we found ridiculous since their |

|near boat launch to | | |rooms start at $170! upon second question at ticket counter for |

|Yaxchilán | | |boats we were allowed to stay w/o payment... |

| | | |parking lot, some shade, some slope, near river, but still hot, |

| | | |quiet overnight |

| | | |we recommend to take a good flash light into all ruin sites! |

|Lacanjá Chansayab |N 16°46'06.5" |$25 p. person |some rooms and a restaurant next to a river w. wide waterfall, |

|near Bonampak |W091°07'32.2" | |decent shade in rainforest setting, relatively cool. nice and |

|Campamento Lacandones | | |peaceful spot = recommended! |

| | | |very basic, but clean toilets and (at our visit) unfinished cold |

| | | |showers |

|Campeche |N 19°49'01.8" |$80 |suburb Samula: south of university, down Calle 12, turn right |

|New Samula Trailer Park |W090°33'08.6" | |into Calle 19, left into Calle 16, property is on your left (sign|

| | | |Trailer Parck), it's really a suburban house with a nice green |

| | | |garden, room for maybe 3-4 vans or small campers, tents o.k., |

| | | |despite the heat it's cooler here than downtown. |

| | | |some power, water, simple toilet and shower, palapa, owner (older|

| | | |lady) speaks some English, bus service into town 3 blocks away, |

| | | |too many dogs around, public party rental place at street corner |

| | | |(noisy on weekends). |

| | | |if you want to stay for free with no facilities or shade: outside|

| | | |the Tourist Information near waterfront (7-lane road) is a large |

| | | |parking lot where "boondocking" is permitted! |

|Uxmal |N 20°21'36.8" |$100 |shocked about the price, but very quiet overnight, some shade, |

|Parking lot of ruins |W089°46'01.5" |with receipt! |use of very clean toilets is all you get! |

| | | |handy to visit the Sound & Light Show in the evening. |

|near Uxmal |N 20°23'52.9" |$100 *) |*) this is a listed campground and the official rate is $200. we |

|Restaurant Can-Nah |W089°46'05.7" | |arrived a little after 7 pm and the place was closed - no access |

| | | |to (locked) bathrooms - hence the next morning we demanded a |

| | | |lower price. |

| | | |grass under low trees near road, still quiet over night, some |

| | | |morning shade, power, water, swimming pool (which we didn't |

| | | |inspect), tents probably o.k. |

|Mérida |N 21°02'29.9" |$200 |on main road to Progresso, next to Liverpool department store, |

|Rainbow Trailer Park |W089°37'48.2" | |mostly an industrial area with the accompanying noise. some |

| | | |shade, camping on grass, tents probably o.k., terrible mosquito |

| | | |problem at the beginning of the rain season! decent bus |

| | | |connection into downtown, heaps of US-American-style shopping and|

| | | |dining nearby. |

| | | |power, water, dumps (all 3 are difficult to co-ordinate), old |

| | | |bathrooms with solar hot water, old showerheads which spray in |

| | | |all directions (or not at all), fairly clean (we were the only |

| | | |guests). |

| | | |2010 – Campsite as described above. Very dry in March. Clearly |

| | | |getting run down and minimal maintenance. We paid $250 for the |

| | | |first night and then the owner spotted we had 2 children. Told |

| | | |us to pay another $100 per night or get out. This was at 7pm. |

| | | |Very unpleasant experience. I would not bank on it being open |

| | | |much longer. |

|Izamal |N 20°56'00.0" |free |a friendly English "Welcome" by the tourist policeman José, who |

|Zócalo next to convent |W089°01'06.5" | |said of course we could stay (he hinted a tip for himself) and |

| | | |the small town would be quiet overnight... that wasn't the case! |

| | | |it seems to be the main Saturday night entertainment to cruise |

| | | |with cars and noisy mopeds around the plaza until the wee hours |

| | | |of the morning - just before the first people arrive for the 6 |

| | | |o'clock mass... |

|Piste |N 20°52'00.5" |free *) |*) we ended up staying in a residential area: good morning shade |

|near Chichen Itza |W088°35'21.5" | |and relatively quiet sleep, but under a flickering street light. |

| | | |other people recommend to drive into the hotel zone near the |

| | | |ruins! |

| | | |we first stopped at the "Piramide Inn", the only remaining |

| | | |official camping option in town, and were allocated (for $40 |

| | | |p.person incl. fairly dirty cold showers) a site in their front |

| | | |yard, about 4 meters from the Highway 180. during the day it was |

| | | |quiet enough, but over night traffic picked up, mostly |

| | | |semi-trailers and b-doubles, and there's a bumpy tope just down |

| | | |the road - so sleep was impossible and around 1:00 am we went |

| | | |searching for another place. we found the entire ruin site |

| | | |blocked off by armed police. |

|Xpu-Ha |N 20°28'20.0" |$150 |bumpy dirt road off highway to a beautiful white beach with |

|La Playa [sign!] |W087°15'29.3" | |turquoise calm water. elevated campsite with good breeze (if |

| | | |there is any) and nice view (only interrupted by a cyclone |

| | | |fence). |

| | | |full hook-ups, though only very few power outlets, and the water |

| | | |is a little salty. bathrooms with cold showers were cleaned after|

| | | |we politely asked for. there are also cold beach showers in front|

| | | |of the relatively expensive beach restaurant. overall a nice spot|

| | | |(out of season - might be too busy with longterm campers during |

| | | |season) - we went back for a longer stay! |

|near Puerto Morales |N 20°52'21.4" |US$15 + |narrow property with some cabañas right at the beach and about 8 |

|Acamaya Reef |W086°51'58.6" |US$5 for a/c |campsites behind. |

| | | |too much seaweed on the beach, large resort 2 properties up the |

| | | |beach, too little breeze, and a construction site right next door|

| | | |all didn't encourage us to stay more than one night... |

| | | |sites are narrow with full hook-ups, unisex toilets and cold |

| | | |showers (there's supposed to be hot water during season) with |

| | | |only curtains for privacy, small restaurant which was closed for |

| | | |re-modelling, some nasty mosquitos. |

|north of Majahual |N 18°46'35.8" |$100 |basically paid for nothing but a space to park (and sleep) |

|Solymar |W087°40'17.9" | |overnight |

| | | |no facilities (not even use of a toilet), some english spoken, |

| | | |not a nice beach: dirty with trash and seegrass, shallow water. |

| | | |some shade from cocos palms, good breeze, quiet overnight |

| | | |a british group of marine biologists claim to have leased the |

| | | |entire property for a year; they don't want others entering it |

| | | |once their equipment has arrived! |

|Calderitas near Chetumal |N 18°33'39.9" |$250 - $350 |our last camping place in Mexico is one of the most expensive |

|Yax Ha Resort |W088°14'55.3" |depending size |ones, but it also looks quite nice and well cared for: grassy |

| | |of camper |property with pool next to the ocean, palms and trees, small |

| | | |beach and marina, clean and modern ensuite-style bathrooms with |

| | | |hot water. tents probably accepted, free WiFi (unreliable)! weak |

| | | |15 amp power (120 + 220 Volts!), place to fill with fresh water |

| | | |and another place to dump waste water. |

| | | |this could be a nice and quiet place, but the owners/managers let|

| | | |people in overnight to party at the waterfront; we were woken up |

| | | |one night at 5:00, the next at 1:40 by noisy drunks... |

| | | |update: Chetumal was once again hit by a cyclone in mid 2007 - |

| | | |this place might have been affected |

| | | |2010 – Campsite is still there and in good condition. Free Wifi,|

| | | |clean pool & toilets, hot showers, good food. However their |

| | | |water ran out the following morning so no showers, and toilets |

| | | |were flushed using buckets (from the pool). The campsite had a |

| | | |very large number of campers in tents. Probably because it was |
