Downtown San Jose del Cabo
gringos, surfers, and local fishermen all mix at this super chill bar in the boonies on the east cape road.  Our favorite spot to drain a margarita or 2 on the way back from surfing at nine palms.

Watch out for the guys at the PEMEX gas stations, they will try to rip you off thinking that you aren't watching the pump. Know your exchange amount of the day, as they fluctuate some from day to day and not all businesses will give the same.
