Tubac Village
Scenic high desert vistas surround Tubac, and the village enjoys a year-around economy that benefits from summer temperatures notably cooler than Tucson or Phoenix. More than 100 businesses now line Tubac's meandering streets, and a full day can be enjoyed wandering through the numerous art galleries, working studios and gift shops. The Tubac Center of the Arts provides a full range of arts programming, and seasonal exhibitions should not be missed. A variety of locally owned restaurants are open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and our comfortable bed & breakfasts mean that your visit to Tubac doesn't have to end when the shops close!

The Art Colony of Tubac was established in 1752 as a Spanish presidio (fort). Working artists' studios now surround the grounds which once served as the home for a Spanish military garrison. Tubac remembers its origins at the Tubac Presidio State Historic Park located in the village's Old Town, and no visit to Tubac is complete without a stop at Arizona's First State Park.

Tubac is about 50 miles south of Downtown Tucson.

I have been to Tubac a couple of times. It is a funky town that is all about art. I really liked the work by Emmett Navakuku, but I can't remember which gallery it was in or if it is still there. Shelly's Bistro has good food, but you may have to wait quite a while to get a table. We have also eaten at a Mexican restaurant that was tasty. Both times I have been here, the village has been very uncrowded. This place is worth visiting at least once.
