San José del Cabo

Baja California Sur · 1 stay

Good to know

San José del Cabo — frequently asked

What is San José del Cabo known for?

Its historic Art District and Thursday Art Walk, colonial plaza, the San José estuary, and some of Los Cabos' best farm-to-table restaurants.

Is San José del Cabo better than Cabo San Lucas?

It's quieter, more cultural and better for dining and art; Cabo San Lucas is livelier with more nightlife and beach clubs. They're 30 minutes apart — most visitors enjoy both.

Can you swim in San José del Cabo?

Yes at protected Playa Palmilla. Costa Azul and Acapulquito are surf beaches with currents — better for surfing than swimming.

When is the Thursday Art Walk?

Thursday evenings, roughly November through June, when galleries in the historic center open with wine, music and artists present.
