Learn more about San José del Cabo

Watching humpback whales breach from beachfront bars feels almost unfairly commonplace in this seaside retreat. The historic Art District reveals a sophisticated side, where galleries showcase local talent between colonial buildings painted in sunset hues. Golf courses perch dramatically on oceanside cliffs, challenging players to focus on their swing rather than the spectacular views. Unlike its rowdier sibling Cabo San Lucas, this city maintains a dignified charm with cobblestone streets and family-run restaurants serving the day's catch. Costa Azul Beach attracts surfers while Palmilla Beach offers calmer waters for swimming. Visit the Thursday evening Art Walk when galleries stay open late and artists mingle with visitors over complimentary wine.
