**Rosarito’s Desalination Plant: Transforming Water Supply and Boosting Tourism**
Rosarito is set to enhance its water infrastructure and tourism appeal with the confirmation of a new desalination plant. Announced by Mexico’s President Claudia Sheinbaum, the project is part of the National Water Plan and involves a substantial investment of 12 billion pesos (approximately $648 million USD).
“We are committed to constructing this plant,” Sheinbaum affirmed, promising that the desalination plant in Baja California will come to fruition.
Rosarito’s Mayor, Rocío Adame, expressed enthusiasm about the development on social media, emphasizing its potential to significantly improve the water supply in South Rosarito and ensure the protection of local beaches.
**A Sustainable Vision for Rosarito**
The plant, a Greenfield project, will boast a production capacity of 2,200 liters per second, guaranteeing a sustainable water supply for the region. Recent evaluations conducted on March 12, 2025, by Proyectos México highlight support from Banobras and Fonadin for this initiative.
Beyond the water infrastructure advancements, Rosarito is also enhancing its tourism sector with a focus on sustainability. Mayor Adame’s administration is actively pursuing the National Tourism Quality Certification, which confirms high standards and environmental responsibility for tourist destinations throughout Mexico.
“This certification is a holistic acknowledgement of tourism quality and sustainability,” shared Paul Corona Rodríguez, president of COTUCO Rosarito.
With significant infrastructure investments and an emphasis on eco-friendly tourism, Rosarito is poised to emerge as a leader in regional development across Mexico.
