Correspondents’ Picks: Todos Santos, Mexico

Posted in September 23rd, 2008

Framed by mango trees, palm trees and pink and blue haciendas, this oasis town, with its array of galleries, restaurants and uncorrupted natural beauty, offers visitors a breathtaking haven away from Baja’s more touristy locales. In 2006, Todos Santos was named a “Pueblo Magico” or magical village by Mexico’s Secretariat of Tourism. After a brief sojourn there, the town’s undeniable charm will leave no doubt as to why. Surf or otherwise enjoy the sea at Los Cerritos beach, where the swelling waves are home to world-class surfers. It’s also a prime spot for whale watching in the winter months. If you want to try your luck at riding the waves, check out Pescadero Surf Camp. Their certified instructors should have you up on the board in no time.

STROLL along Calle Benito Juarez, the main street. Begin your walk at the famous Hotel California. Though urban legend claims it as the inspiration for The Eagles’ song of the same name, these rumours have been shot down by Eagles’ singer and guitarist Don Henley. This, however, has not stopped a yearly pilgrimage of Eagles’ fans who make their way to this charming boutique hotel, which does nothing to dispel these rumors by blaring the infamous song on the sidewalk outside.

Might be interesting for Todos Santos builders

Posted in October 16th, 2007

There is some construction work going on and we like to announce that Eco y Eco now is also servicing the southern Baja with their solar water heaters and solar boilers. That might be interesting for Todos Santos contractors, Todos Santos plumbers or just the "regular" builder working on his new home or remodeling an existing T.S. retreat. Besides the environmental positive impact you can also save up to 90% on your energy bill. CFE in Todos Santos, heck everywhere will not like to hear that…… You can visit their blog by clicking the banner.

Weather on Todos Santos Info site

Posted in June 4th, 2007

This site is a new design / template on a CMS (Content Management System) for the Todos Santos directory, that allows us to change or add content faster and on a regular schedule. This site is recently newly published and we are still working on different layout features. We have decided against a weather page just for Todos Santos because reliable information is nowhere to be found and what is displayed otherwise are rough figures based on the greater area. Todos Santos Biz has been taken into the Infotheque Network, a Baja California Sur information and marketing platform and we do have one great weather page at the La Paz Infotheque. See this weather page for detailed hurricane information, forecasts etc.
