Overview
Hideaway for the rich and famous, favorite of honeymooners, family friendly for kids and party central for singles, Cabo San Lucas is a red-hot vacation spot. Perched at the southern tip of the beautiful Baja Peninsula, this vibrant resort town draws international visitors year-round. Plan on sun-splashed days and sizzling nightlife, and be sure to pack a party attitude! If quiet relaxation is more your speed, you’ll relish the sparkling shoreline, architectural treasures and wondrous wildlife. Cabo is also famous for championship golf and of course, its bounty of mighty Marlin and other spirited game fish. You’ll discover that options for where to stay are as plentiful and varied as the things to see and do. Choose from lavish palaces and all-inclusive resorts to intimate beachfront villas. Cabo San Lucas is Mexico’s most elite resort destination.
Cabo’s Sea of Cortez is blessed with such a spectacular bounty of fish that Jacques Cousteau referred to it as “the world’s aquarium.” Known globally as the Marlin Capital of the World, Cabo hosts a series of legendary Marlin tournaments each October, when blue, black and striped Marlin abound. You can also cast your line for sailfish, dorado, tuna, wahoo, roosterfish and endless varieties of bottom and surf fish. In recent years, Golf has surpassed sport fishing as a major tourist draw. Gracious greens, softly undulating fairways, turquoise waters… it’s no secret that this area boasts some of the lushest links in Latin America. As one of Mexico’s premier golf destinations, it offers a plethora of magnificent greens that challenge golfers from novice to pro. All of them, including the six championship courses, are carved from stark mountains and desert, and many present stunning views of the Sea of Cortez.
In Cabo, you don’t actually have to wait for sunset to down some tequila! You can usually find an hora feliz (happy hour) somewhere in town between noon and 7 p.m. But once darkness does descend, Cabo really heats up. It’s easy to bar-hop, and with famous nightclubs like El Squid Roe, Cabo Wabo and The Giggling Marlin, you might find yourself dancing ‘til dawn. If a quiet romantic dinner is more what you’d like on tap, Cabo offers a seemingly endless array of menus and venues. From small taco stands and tables in the sand to fresh seafood Cliffside, Cabo is a food lover’s delight. This destination really has something for everyone. There’s a reason. Come, discover your own.
