After spending a few days in La Paz with a friend, I have two nights to myself (can arrive late afternoon, then will have one full day to spend in said location, and will leave early for the airport in La Paz the day after). I don't know whether to stay in La Ventana, Todos Santos, or any other nearby areas (los Cerritos? Sargento?)! Hoping someone can make some suggestions.
If it's helpful, I'm looking to split my time between maybe only a couple of beaches (that first later afternoon/sunset at one, ideally with dinner nearby- casual is great, but whatever!), and the next morning/early afternoon at another beach. I don't need to be able to swim (I generally don't when I'm solo anyway)- so the scenery trumps swimability. I'm ok with staying in town and will have a car. Good food is pretty important to me, but I won't be in these spots long, so as long as there are just a couple of solid places to eat, I'll be just fine. I'm a seafood fanatic, local spots are my jam, and I know when I'm paying too much for mediocre food geared toward tourists (if the food is killer though...I'll pay for it, touristy or not). Will travel a reasonable distance (20-30 min drive?) from my home base for a high quality meal. I'm looking for a low-key, peaceful experience overall.
If you folks have any recommendations based on either the above, or simply what you love about the area, please don't hold back! I sure appreciate any and all tips you might have. Thanks!
