By day, CRANIA comes alive with wellness programming and a co-working space for the local and traveling community. 

The Camp hosts immersive stays and artist residencies, while our nights fuel the coast with world-class music acts and collectives driving Baja’s most magnetic weekends.

Crania is a venue, a community, and an experiment. It is raw, imperfect, and real. A place to gather, to create, to play and remember what matters.
