Choose Todos Santos for culture, art, dining and authentic historic charm, or Cerritos for a laid-back, beach-centered lifestyle focused on surfing, swimming and life at the windy shores of the Pacific Ocean.
Todos Santos is one of Mexico's celebrated "Pueblo Magicos", a designated "magical town". And magical it truly is, combining historic charm with a "West Coast" vibe. Organic farms, art galleries, jewelry shops, artisanal shops and charming garden restaurants make Todos Santos a wonderfully unique town. If it's authenticity, walkability and a slower pace of life that appeals to you, Todos Santos could be for you. When it comes to real estate in Todos Santos, the appeal lies in having large spaces, strong community, a vibrant live music scene and the allure of the wild Pacific Ocean at your doorstep.
Todos Santos is about an hour drive from Cabo and approximately a 90 minute drive from San Jose del Cabo Airport.
Cerritos offers a more beach-focused lifestyle. Built around the famous Playa Los Cerritos, the area has become one of the most desirable emerging coastal communities in the Baja. Surfing, swimming, paddleboarding, long beach walks and those unforgettable Pacific sunsets are just part of the everyday life here. Cerritos is about a ten minute drive to Todos Santos and approximately a forty minute drive from Cabo san Lucas.
Cerritos is about a 50 minute drive from Cabo, approximately an hour and 20 minutes or so from SJD.
Real estate buyers will find oceanfront condos and luxury villas on offer.
Todos Santos delivers culture, character, dining, historic charm and a close-knit community; Cerritos places a gorgeous swimmable beach at your doorstep.
Ultimately, these two charming towns offer two distinct interpretations of the Baja lifestyle.
