LOS CABOS

The sapphire Sea of Cortez meets the Pacific at El Arco, arguably the most photographed landmark of Baja California Sur. Originally inhabited by the Pericu Indians, this mountainous desert peninsula is broken up into three districts: Cabo San Lucas, The Corridor, and San Jose del Cabo, each enjoying 350 long days of warm sun per year.

Cabo San Lucas, the “Striped Marlin Capital of the World” and host to the biggest-stakes fishing tournament on the planet, is a fisherman’s paradise by day and a reveler’s dream by night. Trendy restaurants and bars, a lovely marina, and the Luxury Avenue Mall lure travelers the way anglers draw in their catches. The fun continues at Medano Beach, where The Corridor begins. Twenty miles of upscale resorts, impressive spas, championship golf courses, and beaches lead to San Jose del Cabo, a sleepy town of cobblestone alleys and colonial architecture, small art galleries and boutiques, and other old world charms. From here, head northeast to nearby Puerto Los Cabos, a luxurious gateway to the East Cape coastline.
