BAJA CALIFORNIA SUR
THE TOWN OF
LOS CERRITOS
Los Cerritos translates to “the little hills” and is located just outside the small farming community of El Pescadero, an hour from Cabo San Lucas and 15 minutes from Todos Santos. Once a rustic surf village, Los Cerritos is quickly becoming a mecca for young families, yogis, surfers, foodies, and adventurers alike.
Playa Los Cerritos, or Cerritos Beach, provides excellent surf and swimming, and its relaxed atmosphere makes it ideal for families. The beach also hosts a handful of beach bars and restaurants offering music, and convenient food and drinks options. You can also find walk-up beach massages and local goods like Mexican blankets and more.
Los Cerritos is the perfect basecamp to explore Baja California Sur!
