Fantastic warm beach. Great spot to boogie board and surf. Incredible vista!
Wish that we spent more time there! Great beach. Lots of families and surfers!
Great surfing year round. The restaurant pictured burned down last week Water is usually warm and no wetsuit is required Very safe to visit here and nearby towns of Pescadero and Todos Santos.
Beautiful place! Cerritos is exploding for sure.! Developments and single families places popping up all over.
Good kid beach. Sometimes good waves. Hasn't been developed well and the "Beach Club" is horrible and a narco front. Illegal for a Mexican place to block off a beach but they het away with it.
So beautiful. Just go. I love how the sand washes up on the beach.
Good beach with many restaurants and hotels nearby.
First trip there. Good surf. Very different than Medano beach! Nice restaurant/bar on the beach. Plenty of chair and equipment rentals. Cheap massages on the beach! Easy access off the highway. Several dirt roads lead in. No problem in any car.

What a magical experience with the turtles! Grateful for this organization dedicating their work and lives to help the turtles. The young team of leaders doing the hard work day in and day out are remarkably knowledgeable, answering dozens of detailed PhD-level questions to the best of their abilities. I found it interesting to not only watch the turtles but the humans too...a highly unusual species with interesting behavior to say the least :)
Daily release of some baby turtles at sunset (time varies depending on the season). Beach is quiet, not a lot of people and the sanctuary very rustic and in need of donations. The release was very informative and friendly although I feel bad for the two little turtles that are being shown. They seemed scared. Access is otherwise free and donations to the organization encouraged.
Wonderful experience! Very informative presentation, volunteers were trying to answer questions in at least four different languages! Impressive to see young local kids with so much knowledge and dedication. Keep up the good work!
They didn't release the turtles the night we went for a few reasons, but it was still great!! They brought some of them out in little tubs for us to see and it was awesome! That beach was beautiful with the sunset! Definitely going back!!
What a wonderful experience to be a part of. Our family will never forget! These folks were helping to release baby tortugas into the ocean. Just after sunset we were able to take part in the release of 90 newly hatched turtles. They protect them from predators until they are ready for release. They simply ask for a donation if you participate to provide necessities for the task. There were around 100 people the night we went.
This is experience was amazing. As we waited for sunset, whales went up and down the coastline spouting. Many even breached further offshore! Watching the tiny Olive Ridley turtles fight the waves to make it into the ocean was incredible.
I would recommend this bucketlist activity. As you park and walk out to the ocean, you'll see a fenced-in tent where the turtle eggs are in process of hatching. Usually, every evening at sunset, they release the baby turtles that were born that day. They set out several tubs with baby turtles and answer questions about the conservation efforts to help build the overall population. As there are several tubs, all should have an opportunity to take pics/vids up close. When the time comes, they carry the tubs to the ocean sand and set them free for the waves to carry them out. While waiting, we watched the large crashing ways and whale spouts while the sun sets. Very beautiful.
Access down International road is fine in a car without 4x4. Great experience for all ages. Keep an eye on the horizon, for whales and pelicans. Make sure you leave a donation, the money helps ensure the volunteers aren't too out of pocket.

Beautiful beach! However we went on December and you cannot shower there...the waves were very high. As a sightseeing is beautiful tough.
This is what paradise looks like. Do yourself a favor, go on the hike right behind the area, come grab a drink at the hotel, read your favorite book, and go play in the ocean (carefully, waves are high, not for children).
Public beach, great place for buying fish from fishermen right off the boats near dusk. The sunsets are unreal!
If you go to todos Santos, you can make a quick stop here, the truth is, it’s a place to go for a walk, see the sea and enjoy, the sea is very strong, so it is risky to go swimming, there were many boats leaving to fish and there is a resort in the area, but you can park, walk up the hill and admire the view, not to much to do but it’s relaxing.
Very calm moments watching the sun set at this beach.
Really amazing views, but you can’t swim here, if you enjoy doing hiking there’s a route to the top of the cliff around 1 hour hiking. It’s a really nice place to enjoy the sunset 😎
Interesting place. Local fishermen zoom their boats in on the big waves. Old ornate fish processing plant makes great photography and lots of pelicans. Because there's a luxury hotel there the road is excellent.
Went to this beach mostly so I could do the hike up the viewpoint. It's a quick hike (under an hour) and not hard. The trail is right beside the little chapel at the end of the beach. The beach is ok, the waves are rough so take care going in the water. It's not one for swimming.

Here on a tour from Cabos San Lucas to see the Hotel California, I had to pop around to see where the where "the mission bells rang". Understanding the song was not about any real place, I still wanted to have my first glimpse of a Mexican or Californian 'mission'. The exterior looked like it needed some help but the interior was clean and well kept. I saw an enclave with steps leading up behind it that I don't quite understand the purpose of near the front of the mission. I have seen them in a few missions and they still mystify me. Inside the fathers chair looked angular but perfectly carved, there was very nice stained glass, and the statuary and depictions of Christ and Mary where very good.
Went here on a tour exploration from Cabos; this town is darling. The historical church is simple but beautiful and on the same block as Hotel California, with a cute market right around the corner.
Todos is a pueblo Magica. Very pretty little town and the church is one of the highlights
Beautiful architecture
Nice Mission Church that helps the local community/people that are in need. They have hand-made Rosaries that are made by members of the Church available but you must ask for them.
Cute little shop attached to the church. Please respect other people's religious facilities.
Peaceful church, for a peaceful town. Beautiful architecture, friendly neighborhood.
This was part of a shore excursion from my cruise and I learned a lot about the historic nature of this place.

Art gallery
Slide 1 of 8
Michael and Erick are very talented visual artists who sell their works as well as the works of others in this gallery. They might be the friendliest and most welcoming people I’ve ever met. Michael tends toward larger works, with Erick producing whimsical smaller images. We walked out with what we could afford, and will return on our next trip for more. Art lovers are well-advised to stop by their gallery when in town.
I had the pleasure of meeting the owner / artist here. The gallery is beautiful with a good mix of various collections.
Awesome art. A must see. The managers are english speaking. Please do stop in
Fabulous Art and People! One of the oldest galleries in town. A must!
I didn't buy anything but it was a pretty place to visit
The best art gallery in Yodos Santos
Way too much sauce on wings.
