San José del Cabo Historic Center
San José del Cabo
A historic colonial town, with galleries and restaurants clustered around the Mission Plaza and white church. Art Walks take place on Thursday evenings.
San José del Cabo is the civic center of Los Cabos, quieter and more elegant than Cabo San Lucas. The old town centers on Mission Plaza. Next to the plaza stands the Mission San José del Cabo Añuití church, founded in 1730 (the current building is a later reconstruction). The surrounding streets are lined with galleries, handicraft shops, and refined restaurants. From about November to June, an Art Walk takes place every Thursday evening. Galleries stay open, and there is live music and street food. It's about 15 minutes from the international airport and about 40 minutes from Cabo San Lucas.
Opening hours
All day; galleries mostly 10:00–21:00
