Historic Tubac, Arizona is a few minutes
from Sopori Ranch and only 45 minutes to Tucson with its big
city amenities, southwestern style and historic museums.
Tubac was established in 1752 as a Spanish
presidio. Working artist’s 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.
Scenic high desert vistas surround Tubac,
and visitors to the village benefit from summer temperatures notably cooler than Tucson or Phoenix. More
than ninety 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. A variety
of locally owned restaurants are open for both lunch and
dinner, as well as marvelous bed & breakfasts.
Tubac. A unique community
“Where Art & History Meet.”
