Travel Guide to Todos Santos

Todos Santos is one of those places that has you exhaling a giant a sigh of relief as soon as you arrive. Far away from the touristy area of Cabo San Lucas, it’s a good 2 hour drive down the coast to reach this (once) sleepy fishing town. Now a creative hub for artists, wanderers, yogis and expats alike, it still clings to its’ humble roots. Everything takes a little longer here. Dinners stretch out as long as the horizon over blood orange sunsets and into the ink black night. You won’t find all of your normal creature comforts here, but that is the beauty of a place like Todos Santos.

Things to do in Todos Santos

Nothing. Everything.

While there is plenty to do — packing your days with a list of tourist stops isn’t what this destination is about. Take it slow. Roll out of bed to the sound of crashing waves, spend a slow morning with strong coffee overlooking the water. Cook a hearty breakfast at home or pop into one of the many spots in our guide of what to do in Todos Santos or discover a hidden beach one afternoon. Stroll through town stopping in at the many artisan shops selling rainbow pom pom garlands or tightly woven patterned blankets hailing from Oaxaca. Grab an ice cold chili mango paleta to bide your time before an obligatory 5:00 margarita, or don’t wait, we won’t tell.
