Hi,

This is old information from the Vela website:

"To Los Barriles by Bus:
For persons not desiring a taxi, there is a much less expensive ($3-5), but more time-consuming and adventurous alternative to reach Los Barriles. It is the local bus that plies the route between San Jose del Cabo and La Paz. The only hitch is that the bus drops you at the intersection of the highway and the 1/3 mile long road into town. At the time of this printing buses leave the San Jose del Cabo bus station at 6, 7:30, and 10 am. Afternoon buses leave at noon, 2, 5 and 7 pm. Make sure you take the bus headed to La Paz via Los Barriles. There are two ways to get the bus. One is to take a "collectivo" taxi headed for San Jose del Cabo hotels. Tell them to take you to the bus station (about a 10-15 minute ride). The other way is to ask that same taxi to let you off at the bus stop just a few miles south of the airport before you get to town. Waiting in town at the restaurant next to the bus station is more pleasant! The ride to Los Barriles from the bus station takes approximately 2 hours vs. about 1 hour by taxi from the airport."

I knew of a couple who took the bus to Los Cabos. I believe they caught the bus at the entrance to the town. There is a bit of a paved road and roughly serviceable sidewalks if you are backpacking or have rolling gear.




When the way comes to an end, then change. Having changed, you pass through.

I don't remember the times, but about every 2 hours, all day.
