Every year, before the end of spring and until the end of August, the wine harvest season is celebrated around the Guadalupe Valley and in the city of Ensenada with a series of events. These events range from private wine tastings and galas, to concerts of classical music and famous pop artists at the vineyards. The end of the harvest season is commemorated by a two-day free event at the Santo Tomas winery in Ensenada with a festival that is preferred by the locals. Be sure to check out the site for there is an event almost daily.

What better way to spend a summer evening in Mexico than enjoying "America's favorite pastime"...baseball! The Marineros are Ensenada's hometown team, playing in the semi-pro developmental league, Liga del Norte. The stadium is a fun, family-friendly place with great concessions at reasonable prices.
