The 18th-century Jesuit stone mission on a bluff above the river palms — still an active church, and the namesake of Santa Rosalía up the coast.
Practical
Founded 1705; INAH-listed historic monument. Walk up from the town centre (about 10 minutes) for the view over the date-palm oasis and river. Respectful dress inside; services on Sundays.
