Where can a find a great cup of coffee in San Jose?

When travelling finding the perfect cup of coffee is at the top of the list for many people. So we thought we would share our top three personal cafes in San Jose del Cabo:
1) El Wine Shop – has 2 locations – one on the parallel road beside La Comer shopping centre and one boutique location at Flora Farms.
2) French Riviera Bakery – in old downtown San Jose for brunch, decadent treats and good Italian coffee.
3) Café Doña Nena – is a low-key cafe setting perfect for a quick jolt of caffeine before strolling the cobblestone streets in San Jose (just before the entrance to the church square – same side of road as Tropicana.)

Where can I book a fishing charter in San Jose del Cabo?

We recommend booking a charter out of the Puerto Los Cabos Marina – which is only about 20 minute drive from Shipwrecks beach. The operator we recommend is Gordo Banks and you can contact them here: www.gordobanks.com For 2 people a super panga is sufficient but a 25 or 30ft cabin cruiser is nice for 3-4 people. Make sure to bring cash for your fishing licence, plus bait and tip.
