View full US State Dept advisorySan José del Cabo is the quieter, artier half of the Los Cabos corridor. While Cabo San Lucas gets the party reputation, San José has the colonial town square, a walkable art district, a real estuary with birds, and restaurants that focus on food instead of volume. It shares an airport with Cabo but feels like a different country.
