Traffic
On beautiful days and especially on weekends / holidays; I recommend you get an early start and return by 4-5pm or after 8pm otherwise you can be stuck in traffic for an hour or more. Traffic backs on route 225 for many kms when returning from Ensenada.

Walking
Recommend to walk to center of town via costanera instead of driving due to traffic and parking issues. Walk takes 20-25 minutes.
