First Street is defiantly a tourist zone, Americanized is how i would describe it. Little more expensive than the rest of Ensenada but a good time, everything there is walking distance in the morning. Had a couple of tacos and margaritas. They were Yummy!!

I love first St. or as the locals call it "Calle Primera", I call it The Strip, because it has everything, shops, bars, restaurants,nail salons for the lady's,outdoor coffe cafe for your caffeine fix. You can spend hours here. From here you could find taxi drivers that will take you to many of the popular sites, like the Buffadora, some... More

It is a noisy fun street. It seems pretty safe but we left early because it is more for the young-single crowd. I do not know how it looks at night but just for the amount of alcohol being consumed it seems trouble. My advise: go but when it gets late stay out of trouble makers going early to your... More

It's a very interesting street in Ensenada port, the first thing you'll find are some hotels, coffee shops and later find a wide variety of shops, bars and clubs with all varieties of music for all tastes. From a glass of wine to party until dawn

Mango Mango was a blast! Good 80s & 90s music and lots of sun. Pappas and Beer ripped off some of our female friends. Promising free tequila but not letting them leave without paying for all their shots. There is a Tequila shop on the main street. South of Mango Mango on the oppostite side of the street. Very knowledgeable... More

If this is your first time to Mexico, then you will have a blast looking around the shops for souvenir items. Unfortunately for me, I have been to different parts of Mexico looking for souvenirs that are unique in that city, and come to find out that many of the items are the same in Puerto Vallarta, Cabo San Lucas,...
