Cabo San Lucas

Cabo San Lucas calls sun worshippers, golfers, and those who love to play on the water. Start your stay at the tip of Mexico’s Baja Peninsula with an Instagram-worthy picture of El Arco, the famous granite formation jutting out of the blue-green sea. Nearby Bahia San Lucas offers premier scuba diving alongside snappers and angelfish. Some dive operators offer luxury excursions for days at a stretch.

Stroll the marina and enjoy the Mercado de Artesanías, or find vendors to take you sportfishing, snorkeling, and whale watching. Some charters guarantee sightings between December and April.
