 San Carlos : Profile
There is a Port Captain's office at the harbour and yachts can clear in themselves, or arrange it through one of the marinas. It is not necessary to report to Immigration if this is not the first port of call in Mexico.
San Carlos is a leisure boating centre on the mainland coast in the Gulf of California. It is 12 miles from the commercial port of Guaymas.
There are three well protected marinas and many attractive anchorages.
