Rosarito ATV Mountain Ride & Paintball Experience
Strap into an automatic quad and climb Rosarito’s coastal hills for a 40–45 minute guided ATV loop, a short supervised paintball target session, and sweeping Pacific views. Expect dusty tracks, easy-to-use machines, and practical instruction for first-time riders.
The Experience
Before You Go
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sturdy sneakers or hiking shoes protect feet from debris and improve control on the automatic ATV.
Secure valuables
Use a zip pocket or leave phones and wallets at the pickup point — dust and vibration can dislodge loose items.
Listen to the safety briefing
Ten minutes of practice is provided; follow the guide’s throttle and braking tips to avoid costly damage fees.
Bring cash for tips
Tipping guides is customary and often expected; small bills in pesos are easiest to use locally.

This coastal strip of Baja California has long combined fishing villages and ranching routes; nearby Puerto Nuevo became famous for lobster stands that grew with mid-20th-century tourism.
