THE ITINERARY
Four days. Two charters. One home base. Everything loops back to the house, one block off the malecón.
Day 1 · Thu · July 30
Wheels Down
Everyone lands in Cabo (SJD) around 3:30 PM. Then it's a ~2–2.5 hr private van up to La Paz. Drop bags at the house.
🚶 ~11 min walk
Hidden courtyard, fish + steak, ribeye-and-bone-marrow tacos. Hard to find — trust the pin. Reserve for 8.
Open in Maps ↗🚶 ~4 min walk
Cheap liter drafts, rooftop, easy first-night energy. STRICT MIDNIGHT HARD CAP — we have a 5:30 AM wake-up call for the charter. Hydrate or die-drate starts now.
Open in Maps ↗Day 2 · Fri · July 31
Fishing Day 1
Dawn: dorado/marlin charter, early launch, back mid-afternoon. Ask the crew to fillet + bag some dorado.
🚶 ~14 min / short cab
🚶 ~14 min / short cab. Best seafood in town. We must arrive by 6:30 PM so the kitchen has time to prep and cook our fresh dorado catch before their strict 9:00 PM kitchen close. Make sure to call ahead and book this catch-and-cook!
Open in Maps ↗🚶 ~5 min walk
Classy cocktails, best espresso martinis in La Paz, DJ later. Tired-but-not-done speed.

Fishing Day 2 + THE BIG NIGHT
Dawn: last dorado/marlin charter. Back mid-afternoon, nap, then send it — no early wake-up tomorrow.
🚶 ~1 min — literally next door
Sunset rooftop built like a whale skeleton. Reservation + ~500 MXN/person deposit that credits to your tab. Book ahead.
Open in Maps ↗🚶 ~15 min / short cab
Rooftop that flips into a full club on weekend nights, open till 3am. MANDATORY: Reach out on Instagram/WhatsApp to reserve an 8-person bottle table in advance.
Open in Maps ↗🚶 ~5 min walk
Late-night banda + disco till 3am. Loud, sweaty, glorious. Walk home.
Open in Maps ↗Day 4 · Sun · Aug 2
Wheels Up
