What is the best way to travel from Albuquerque, New Mexico to La Paz, Mexico?
At first I wanted to drive down to San Diego and then down the Baja peninsula to La Paz. Then, a friend of mine mentioned that a better and shorter way is to drive to Mazatlan and then to take a ferryboat across to La Paz. In checking out the Atlas I can see that Mazatlan is quite a bit south of La Paz and that the ferry boat would be backtracking. Do you have some other suggestions for best routes from Albuquerque to La Paz?

Answer 1 :
Yes .... the ferry to take leaves from Topolombanpo near Los Mochis and only takes about 9 hours. The ferry from Mazatlan takes 18 hours. The problem with taking the ferry is you need to register your car for mainland Mexico (money, time and paperwork) and the ferry costs about $100us for car plus a passenger fare of about $60
