Santiago

Santiago was founded as a mission settlement and has evolved into a modern day agricultural commerce center with a population of about 2,000. The Arroyo de Santiago divided the town into two halves the North Hill and the South Hill. All around the slopes are mango, avocado, oranges and palm orchards. Local farmers now grow much of the organic produce that appears on many Los Cabos menus, and the towns palm orchards supply the palms used to make palapa roofs used up and down the peninsula.
We stopped an bought a BBQ chicken that came with rice, salsa and tortilla, another yummy dinner.
