Why Los Cabos
Los Cabos is comprised primarily of two towns, San Jose del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas; which are linked by a 20-mile corridor lined with world-class resort properties and championship golf courses. Cabo San Lucas, noted for its vitality and nightlife, offers a variety of attractions including the Marina (featuring 380 slips accommodating vessels up to 200 feet in length), which is regarded as offering the highest quality in services and amenities that yachters have come to expect.
Location
Los Cabos, located at the tip of the 1,000-mile long Baja Peninsula, is one of the world’s most diverse tourist destinations. Boasting a dramatic desert backdrop nestled by coastlines of the Pacific Ocean and Sea of Cortez, Los Cabos is home to award-winning resorts and culinary offerings considered by many as the finest available anywhere. A growing list of championship golf courses, rejuvenating spas, world-renowned sport fishing tournaments, and state-of-the-art convention facilities add to the destination’s unmatched appeal.
Activities and Attractions
Cabo San Lucas is a city located at the southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula. It is known for the beautiful desert landscapes and beaches, for being the Marlin capital, and home of The Arch, also called “Land’s End”. Nowadays, Cabo San Lucas has some of the most luxurious resorts, world-class marinas, and the biggest fishing tournaments in the world. It is not only popular within celebrities, but also within thousands of people from all over the world who come to enjoy the nightlife, the best deep-sea fishing in the world, and a wide variety of activities. San Jose del Cabo has an ancient culture of agile runners and tireless walkers called the Pericues that lived in Los Cabos region long before tourism started. They were gatherers, fishermen, and hunters who lived under palm trees in the San Jose del Cabo estuary. It is known that they believed in a higher being called Niparaja. Years later, San Jose del Cabo turned into a charming colonial town thanks to commercial ships while they were traveling from Asia to trade porcelain, mercury, silk, and other products, and had to stop over for water and supplies. Around 1730, the Mission of San Jose del Cabo Añuit along with a main square were founded on Zaragoza street, which still exist today and can be visited.
