Ensenada
http://www.ensenada.net.mx/
Is not as much a tourist town as it is a genuine Mexican city, yet it
does have much to
offer the visitor who drops by. The 75 mile drive south of the U.S.
border is on an excellent road (aside from the repair work just north
of town), and can be traveled in just over an hour.
Tijuana

Even though the Tijuana - San Diego border holds the unique distinction
of being the
world's busiest international border crossing, most visitors who cross
it will not see much more than a passing glance of this fascinating
city as they stay on the main roads or head
further south into Baja.
Indio

Indio is the largest of the eight cities that comprise the Palm Springs
Desert
Resorts area, 125 miles east of Los Angeles and 288 miles west of Phoenix.
