Driving Down to Mexico: A Borderline Adventure
Now, let's talk turkey. The most popular way to get to Rosarito is by car. It's like a mini road trip, minus the annoying rest stops. You'll cruise down the I-5, feeling the salty breeze in your hair and the excitement building with every mile. Just remember, you're crossing the border, so have your passport or Enhanced Driver's License ready. And trust me, don't forget to fill up your gas tank before crossing - Mexican gas prices are a whole different ball game.
Bus or Train? Not Your Average Commute
If driving isn't your jam, there are always buses and trains. Buses are usually cheaper and more frequent, but trains offer a more scenic (and slower) journey. Just be prepared for a longer travel time, especially if you're taking public transportation. And let's be honest, who wants to spend hours on a bus when you could be sipping margaritas on the beach?

Flying High and Falling Fast
For those who are short on time or just plain fancy, flying is an option. You can catch a flight to Tijuana International Airport and then take a taxi or shuttle to Rosarito. It's the quickest way to get there, but also the most expensive. Plus, you'll miss out on all the fun of the drive. So, unless you're a major jetsetter, I'd stick to the road or the bus.
