San José del Cabo

             San Jose del Cabo is a beautiful Mexican smalltown 25 minutes north of Cabo San Lucas . San Jose del Cabo is known to be called the more well-behaved little sister of the two cities in the Baja.

Where can I find pesos reliably?

That was one of the questions we often asked when my family first moved here. "Where can I find a safe and reliable ATM or currency exchange". So far the best method we have found is using ATM's located inside the grocery stores(Chedraui, Freskos, La Comer) along the transport corridor. These machines are frequently refilled and checked for security so rest assured. If you choose to use these machines make sure you decline the exchange rate. This will not cancel the transaction but instead it will charge you only the transaction fee and rely on your banks current rate to complete the exchange. We see an average ATM fee of 50-120 pesos, so if you see the fee is significantly higher consider finding a different machine.
