San Jose del Cabo was founded in 1730 in the southern part of the Baja California peninsula by explorers who found a natural source of fresh water in the naturally dry climate. Today, San Jose continues to be a breath of fresh air in Baja Sur. More traditionally "Mexican" than it's sister city of San Lucas, San Jose is home to a vibrant community of artists that add color and flair to the peaceful streets.

Take a stroll through town and you'll see why locals and visitors love San Jose: trendy art galleries stand side by side with elegant restaurants, boutiques and traditional Mexican handicraft vendors, and plenty of live music in the central plaza. San Jose is also home to a brand-new marina (including two golf courses), and just a few minutes away from the famous surf spots at Costa Azul. Come see for yourself why this is the heart of Los Cabos, and you might just fall in love with San Jose.
