History
The town's history dates back two centuries to when six English sailors deserted a whaling ship. They learned Spanish, converted to Catholicism and married into the community. The local cemetery has English family names on some of the old headstones.
During the Mexican American War, following the Skirmish of Todos Santos the civil authorities of Miraflores delivered Mauricio Castro, who had replaced Manuel Pineda as commander of the Mexican forces in Baja California, to Lieutenant George L. Selden of the Cyane on April 2, 1848.
