Hey I'm planning a cross country trip and I like to hike mountain bike and site see etc. I'd also like to try surfing. I hear Baja has excellent waves and beautiful scenary but I've also heard it can be shady. Does anyone know how safe beach camping is down there and also how the back roads are? Do you need 4wd once you're off the main road? Also where are the best places to visit.

Thanks for the help
Dave
