About San Jose del Cabo:

San Jose del Cabo is one five main locations in Baja California Sur - which include Cabo San Lucas, La Paz, Todos Santos and Loreto.   All of these places can be discovered individually with Mexperience!

San Jose del Cabo is on Mexico's Baja Peninsula, the land immediately south of the United States, cut-off from mainland Mexico by the Sea of Cortez, sometimes also referred to as the Gulf of California.

This region of Mexico is a real paradise - with its hot deserts, and cool, warm breezed oceans; its waters reflecting several different shades of blues and greens.

The region is a particular favorite with divers, golfers and people looking for sports  fishing excursions.

San Jose del Cabo houses the seat of the local government here, and is the main business centre for the area.   However, the town still looks and feels like a real old provincial Mexican town.

The city is full of interesting places to see, nice shops, good restaurants and cafés, and even some quality art galleries that stock local artists' works.

If you're looking for all of the attractions that Baja California Sur offers in terms of landscape, beaches and weather, but don't want the commercialized feel of a developed resort, then San Jose del Cabo is a good choice for you.

About Cabo San Lucas:

Before Cabo San Lucas was known as the tourist town it is today, the beaches were inhabited by a nomadic Guaycura Amerindian group called Pericu.

Nowadays, the small fishing village has become a bustling tourist attraction. Cabo San Lucas has increased its numbers and now boasts a population of almost 25,000. Many small shops and boutiques line the streets with souvenirs and handcrafted Cabo clothing. Tour guides are ready to show off the spectacular coastline—and the sights under the water too. Affordable boating adventures and tours await those ready to take to the waves and are a sign that Cabo is no longer an exclusive yacht club just for the upperclass sports fishermen.

Great fishing is not the only activity that brings people to the southernmost tip of the Baja peninsula. First class golfing attracts sportsmen of a different kind, while the beaches bring legions of sunbathers each year. Scuba diving is also a popular draw for visitors; the beautiful waters are great for watching exotic, colorful marine life.

Despite deep roots in the past, Cabo San Lucas has a distinctly modern feel. It is far enough away from home to be a great getaway, without feeling too foreign. American dollars (and other foreign currency) are widely accepted here, as are most major credit cards.
