**Rosarito’s New Desalination Plant: Revolutionizing Water Supply and Boosting Tourism**
Rosarito is set to welcome its very own desalination plant, a significant development confirmed by Mexico’s President during a morning press conference. This ambitious project, central to the National Water Plan, is moving forward with an anticipated investment of 12 billion pesos ($648 million USD). “Yes, we are going to build it… We will make the desalination plant in Baja California a reality,” announced the President.
Rosarito’s Mayor swiftly celebrated the news with enthusiasm, expressing how pivotal this project will be for improving water supply in South Rosarito and preserving local beaches. “The desalination plant is happening!” Mayor Adame declared on social media platforms.
**A Sustainable Future for Rosarito**
Designed as a Greenfield project, the plant will have an impressive production capacity of 2,200 liters per second, ensuring a consistent and sustainable water supply for the region. The initiative is backed by both Banobras and Fonadin. The most recent review from Proyectos México was conducted on March 12, 2025.
Beyond enhancing water infrastructure, Rosarito is making strides in tourism and sustainability. Mayor Adame’s administration is actively pursuing a National Tourism Quality Certification, which reflects high standards and environmental responsibility for tourism sites across Mexico. “This certification is a comprehensive recognition of quality and sustainability in tourism,” explained the president of COTUCO Rosarito.
With substantial infrastructure investments and a dedication to eco-friendly tourism, Rosarito is on a promising path to becoming a national leader in regional development.
