Ajo Vacations, Tourism & Travel Information

Want to have a family fun vacation in a Spanish-influenced place with rich, Spanish cultural heritage?  Ajo, located in southern Arizona, is not a town itself, but its heritage speaks volumes.  Even though Ajo is small, thousands of people flock here every year to visit Ajo for family filled vacations that teach kids instead of show.  To entertain your kids to the fullest, we suggest you visit Ajo's Curley School, a classic Spanish-influenced school built in 1919.  Explore the splendor of Spanish architecture with your kids.  Afterward, we suggest you visit Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge and Visitor Center, where your kids can learn about the nearby Sonoran Desert and its furry inhabitants.  Not taking your kids? 

For more romantic outings, visit Sonoran Desert National Monument, where you are surrounded by natural, romantic settings of the old west.  Make sure to visit Ajo's Country Club afterward, followed up by a visit to a local restaurant.  Make sure to eat Mexican.  We suggest you stay in one of Ajo's classic lodging accommodations afterward, where locals can tell you all about Ajo.  When you choose lodging here, you'll get the privacy you need.  Make sure to visit during the spring or early summer months, where the weather is mild.  For more vacation, kid friendly, romantic, and other lodging options, visit Ajo's website.
