Other Towns: Do Visit San Jose del Cabo
  • Tip Rating:
  • Do stop in San Jose del Cabo, you'll find a pleasant city of meandering streets and lush palm groves with a relaxing atmoshphere. The area was first visited by Cortes himself in 1535. But it was the missionaries not the conquistadors that first brought European civilization to San Jose. A Jesuit mission was built in 1730 to indoctrinate the Percu Indians of the region. In the nineteenth century San Jose slowly evolved into a modest center of commerce for passing ships. Today it is a town of 30,000 people that has a handsome Municipal Palace, charming courtyard restaurants, shops, boutiques, and a lovely tropical estuary.

    Shopping there is not as frenetic as it is in Cabo San Lucas. I think the prices were better on the silver and other jewelry. I bought a Mexican Fire Opal bracelet and ring. At first I thought I was getting ripped off, not knowing that they really do have opals in Mexico. They also have amber if you like that stone (petrified sap).

    San Jose del Cabo is located north up the coast and from Cabo and is on the way to the airport.

     Some people just have ALL the luck! The Casa Del Sol really was marvelous, but that Hotel Cabo San Lucas, WOW! It all looks so fabulous--your photos were great!

     On this frigid Chicago morning (1 am), it was a pleasure to read your quality pages about Cabo San Lucas. So fortunate to have a free place on the golf course (green with envy). Superior photos and quite helpful tips.
