Attractions Los Algodones B.C. Mexico

Activities and Attractions

Los Algodones is a privileged place that has different sceneries that start from the green of the valley, the majestic and changing Dunes, and the Morelos dam that is the main supplier of the hydraulic network for this immense agricultural valley. Come and enjoy these unique sceneries from this region.

One of the main attractions in Los Algodones is the Mexican typical crafts and curios that are commercialized. There are several outlets where the artisans offer their product to the tourists, and as they exhibit them you can find crafts made from wood, clay, and forged iron as well as jewelry made with exotic stones and metals like silver and gold. Wonderful Painters in the area.

The Dunes are an excellent place to admire the unique beauty that Los Algodones offers; from the top of these golden sand mountains you can enjoy the beautiful view down to the green valley. This is a contrast of images that make Los Algodones an exclusive place to visit with the whole family.
The border town of Los Algodones has turned into the gathering point of tourists and residents of the area, and for the practice of outdoor sports. We invite you to enjoy a moment of recreation. Dunes are on both sides of the border.

For those that enjoy the outdoor activities, the dunes offer a countless option of activities starting by the buggy rides, four-wheelers or tricycles, and up to flying a kite or simply to rest and to appreciate the nature that surrounds it.

The Morelos Dam is located southeast of the Mexicali valley adjacent to the State of Arizona, USA. It serves as a supplying source to the hydraulic network of the immense agricultural valley, and it is used for the watering canals that are a part of the 260 miles main network, and 1,370 miles in the secondary network. There are also 236 private wells and 423 federal ones that supply the water for the city of Mexicali and its valley as well as for the city of Tijuana; the water is taken through one of the most modern aqueducts in Latin America that has the most advanced technology because the water has to be lifted up to 4,500 ft. above sea level through the Rumorosa Mountain.
