  • 1. Tubac Presidio State Historic Park Tubac
    Tubac is a census-designated place in Santa Cruz County, Arizona, United States. The population was 1,191 at the 2010 census. The place name Tubac is an English borrowing from a Hispanicized form of the O'odham name, which translates into English as rotten. The original O'odham name is written Cuwak. The first syllable is accented. When first taken into Spanish speech, it was spelled Tubaca. Finally over time the last a was dropped. Tubac is situated on the Santa Cruz River. Tubac was the original Spanish colonial garrison in Arizona. It was depopulated during the O'odham Uprising in the 18th century. During the 19th century, the area was repopulated by miners, farmers and ranchers, but the town of Tubac is best known today as an artists' colony.
