Baja California Sur is much more than beaches and desert landscapes. The state also hides a lesser-known treasure: its vineyards. While northern Baja California is internationally renowned for its wine route in Valle de Guadalupe, the southern part of the peninsula is emerging with exciting enological proposals worth exploring. This tour will take you through the state’s most outstanding vineyards, blending wine tourism with luxury, culture, and an unforgettable night at El Squid Roe, the epicenter of Cabo San Lucas nightlife.
A new side of tourism in Baja California Sur
In recent years, Baja California Sur has started to position itself as an emerging destination for wine tourism in Mexico. The combination of volcanic soils, varying altitudes, and dry climates has proven ideal for cultivating high-quality grapes. This has led to the rise of artisanal wineries near La Paz, Todos Santos, and the Santo Domingo Valley.
Must-visit vineyards
Viñedo de la Reina, Todos Santos
Surrounded by palm trees and perched on a hill overlooking the Pacific, Viñedo de la Reina combines art and wine. Here, you can taste organic wines, tour the vineyard on horseback, and enjoy cultural events like guided tastings and sunset concerts.
Rancho Cien Palmas, Santo Domingo Valley
Located between Ciudad Constitution and La Paz, this family-owned ranch offers fully immersive wine tourism experiences. The visit includes guided walks through the fields, a look at their small wine production facility, and tastings that highlight promising varietals like Grenache and Tempranillo.
Bodega Los Cedros, La Paz
Overlooking the Sea of Cortez, this boutique winery is recognized for its white wines, especially Chenin Blanc. In addition to wine, Los Cedros offers a full gastronomic experience, with pairing menus that incorporate local ingredients and fresh seafood.
How to plan your wine tour
Best time of year: August to October, during harvest season.
Transport: It is recommended to hire a private service or a local agency specializing in wine routes.
Ideal duration: Two to three days to fully enjoy each stop.
Where wine meets art and culture
Many of these vineyards go beyond wine production and offer cultural experiences like art galleries, concerts, cooking workshops, and performances by local artists. This makes wine tourism in Baja California Sur a rich, multidimensional experience.
End the night at El Squid Roe
After a day of wine tasting, vineyard strolls, and savoring regional cuisine, there is no better way to end the day than with a vibrant night at El Squid Roe. This iconic club in the heart of Cabo San Lucas is more than just a bar: it's a spectacle of lights, live music, high energy, and non-stop dancing.
