In the Valley del Pilar, just three kilometers from the Pacific coast,
there is the pretty town of Todos Santos, originally a weekend retreat founded by the Jesuit Jaime Bravo, in 1723, and dependant on the Nuestra Señora del Pilar de La Paz Mission.
The vicinity of Todos Santos, due to its location on the Pacific Ocean, enjoys a fresh climate all year round, and the Ocean proportions the most beautiful of the open sea beaches, the best known of which are San Pedrito, Los Cerritos, Los Esteros, Punta Lobos, La Poza and Batequitos.
At some of these beaches you will find the die-hard surfers. Being located at the halfway point between La Paz and Cabo San Lucas makes the place a favorite of both national and international tourists, attracted by its climate, tranquility and beauty.
A couple of highlights you should not miss if you visit this location are the Casa de la Cultura (House of Culture) and the Manuel Márquez de León Theatre.
