55km (34 miles) S of San Diego; 29km (18 miles) S of Tijuana
Just a 20-minute drive south of Tijuana and a complete departure in ambience, Rosarito Beach is a tranquil, friendly beach town. It also gained early renown during the U.S. Prohibition, when the elegant Rosarito Beach Hotel catered to Hollywood stars. This classic structure still welcomes numerous guests, despite the fact that its opulence has lost some luster. Hollywood has likewise played a major part in Rosarito's recent renaissance -- it was the location for the soundstage and filming of the Academy Award-winning Titanic. The Titanic Expo museum at Foxploration! here continues to draw fans of the film.
