All about Todos Santos

When to visit

Todos Santos is best visited in winter and spring from Dec. to Apr when you’ll enjoy sunny days filled with clear skies, minus the occasional late-winter rainy patch. Temperatures are mostly mild and comfortable, without the overwhelming heat that comes in summer. Winter is also when the best waves can be found off the coast, bringing plenty of laid-back surfers to town.

Getting around

There’s no better way to take in Todos Santos and the surrounding area than with a set of wheels. The city doesn’t offer reliable public transportation, but car rental agencies offer competitive prices and a wide selection of cars. This offers more freedom to explore, with beaches, mountains, and jungles all on the town’s doorstep. Keep in mind that driving can be dangerous in the area due to erratic road conditions, so taking a taxi instead of driving yourself could be a good option depending on your comfort level with driving on unfamiliar roads. Additionally, during certain times of the year, it may be wise to take an all-wheel drive vehicle due to rain and roadway flooding.

Traveler tips

While going to the beaches in Todos Santos is one of the most popular activities, if you’re planning to swim, be aware of dangerous currents. Some of the safest beaches to swim at include Los Cerritos, Punta Lobos, and Balandra Beach—all of which have mellower tides, fewer rocks, and long stretches of sweeping sand.
