Tubac has been described as where history meets art. Also called the “Sedona of Southern Arizona and internationally known as Arizona’s only true artist colony, it offers over 97 galleries, shops, and studios. It is 40 miles south of Tucson and 30 miles north of Nogales.

Established in 1752 as a Spanish presidio (fort), it has transformed over the years into a working artists’ colony and a popular destination spot for vacationers who desire Tubac’s ideal winter and all-year-round climate.

With very little rain-fall from November through July coupled with mild day-time temperatures, Tubac offers many outside activities unavailable during the winter months in other parts of the country such as golf, birding, hiking, many places of historical and natural interest. When the rains come at the end of the summer, they offer a cooler, more refreshing environment for those from the lower desert areas such as from Tucson and Phoenix. Tubac can be 10 to 20 degrees cooler than can Phoenix because of it’s higher elevation (3200 feet).

Places to visit and activities to take note of while staying in Tubac include: The Tubac Presidio State Historic Park (within walking distance of Casita Linda), the Tumacacori National Historical Park, the Anza Trail, mountain biking, birding in the cottonwood bosques, golfing at the newly renovated and internationally known Tubac Golf Resort and Rio Rico’s Robert Trent Jones championship course, horseback riding, and nearby destinations like Patagonia, Kartchner Caverns and a remarkable ghost town at Ruby. Other places include the Titan Missile Museum in Green Valley, the Smithsonian’s Whipple Observatory atop Mount Hopkins, only 15 minutes from Tubac, Madera Canyon (hiking, birding, mountain biking, and picnicking), and Pena Blanca Lake (hiking and picnicking).

Every year, there is the Annual Tubac Art Festival sponsored by the Tubac Chamber of Commerce in February. The major event showcases the work of hundreds of visiting artists, craft person and musicians from around the country and Canada. In 2007, it is February 7 – 11.
