Located 17 miles south of Ensenada at the tip of the Punta Banda peninsula, La
Bufadora (The Blowhole) is an amazing natural marine geyser that is capable of
shooting water well over 60 feet in the air. La Bufadora is considered to be
the second largest marine geyser in the world. This coastal geological
phenomenon is more precisely a natural chimney open in the cliff , connected
to sea caves. Depending on the tide and the waves, the sea water crashes with
force against the cliff and rises through these chimneys, being thrown upwards
through the gap in the form of pulverized foam like a geyser and producing a
characteristic sound. This place is an important point of tourist
attraction, since it is visited by national and foreign tourists. In
this place the coexistence and integration of visitors is achieved with the
tasting of Mexican dishes and drinks.

Here are some travel tips if you want to visit Ensenada Mexico:
The best times to visit for good weather and fewer crowds are the
shoulder seasons of April to May and September to October.
Weather in Ensenada is usually sunny. Ensenada's rainy season is in the
winter months, typically November to April, with the most precipitation
in February. It is advisable to wear light and comfortable
clothing during your travels at daytime but bring a jacket at night time
since it tends to get cooler specially with the coastal weather.
Ensenada is generally safe, but it's wise to stick to well-lit,
busy areas, especially at night. When exploring, consider walking
with others and staying on main roads or near businesses to avoid
quieter, more isolated streets after dark.
While cash is always a must when traveling to other places, you can get
by with a credit card and smaller US bills. Practically, all places
associated with tourism accept US dollars in bills of $10 or less, most
can handle $20 bills.
It is believed that Ensenada is home to Baja-Style Fish Tacos so make
sure you try in when you are there. There are also a lot of
seafood so try that out as well.
