From Grismer (2002): "Boas are by far most commonly observed during June and July."

I agree with Paul... although you can have a good trip in spring too if you get lucky and get some moisture. For a sure fire Baja adventure... go Sept. or Oct. preferably shorty after a hurricane (first one if possible) or tropical storms goes through.

Cheers,

In the south part of Baja, you have to wait for the rains which can start as early as July, but may take until aug or sept..

Sept is your best bet.
