Camping on a beach that may be in the middle of some drug trafficker's turf could be interesting. I know of several people who have been robbed and the women raped while on an innocent camping trip in the wilds of Baja. I have heard stories of people being shot for no apparent reason. One of my son's friends was killed and dismembered for being in the wrong place a the wrong time somewhere south of Tijuana.
If you pull into some village for a little R&R, how do you plan to secure your yak and all the gear while you are on the beach? You will have to sleep sometime.
From my prospective it looks like you will be trolling for trouble for most of this trip. Am I missing something?
I wish you the best but fear for the worst.

Are you kidding me! Have you ever been to baja? Don't believe everything you read, or hear...
The locals I have met have all been the kindest, happiest, helpful people in the world.
Yes bad things do happen, but 99.99999% of the time if you don't go looking for trouble, trouble won't find you. Bad things happens to the people who are looking, or asking for it... there are lots of stories that get told about baja... most are not true.
