Cabo San Lucas

Cabo San Lucas

Here at the tip of the Baja Peninsula where the amazing rock formation known as Los Arcos guards the entrance to the bay lies Cabo San Lucas which was once a hideout for pirates on the lookout for trading ships. Here you can spy on a no-longer-secret underwater garden through a glass-bottom boat, flirt with a whale or sea lion, shop at a quayside bazaar, or rekindle romance at the secluded Playa del Amor.

Attractions

Cabo San Lucas is quickly becoming a popular destination for one reason: beautiful beaches. You'll find an amazing choice of activities here, from snorkeling and scuba diving to surfing and kayaking. There's something for everyone, even people who just want to lie in the sun and relax.

Activities

Gaze from atop the cliffs at the very far end of the bay at the unforgettable view of Land's End's craggy rock arches and dramatic seascape. Sail to beautiful Santa Maria Cove and enjoy snorkeling in the clear, turquoise waters. Cruise the waters of Los Cabos to search for humpback and gray whales. Set sail on a luxury sailing yacht for Lovers Beach, a sea lion colony, and Land's End. Watch local artisans blow heated glass into crystalline works of art on a tour of a local glass-blowing factory.

Shopping

Mexico boasts some of the finest arts and crafts, sterling silver jewelry and leather. Take a memory of Mexico and her people home with authentic Mexican crafts such as an original ceramic vase, a colorful painting, a pre-Columbian replica or an embroidered cotton blouse. In Cabo San Lucas you can find great deals on colorful Huichol bead work, Talavera plates, "Day of the Dead" paraphernalia, Silver D'Argenta Sculptures, Mexican fire opals and Mexico's famed silver jewelry and designs, including .925 silver from Taxco. Cabo offers fantastic bargains on aquamarine jewelry from Kabana; fashionable pearls from Honora; quality tanzanite from the House of Tanzanite; and watches by Maurice Lacroix and Alfex

Currency

Mexico's currency is the peso (MXN). The $ sign is used to refer to pesos, so don't be shocked at the price tags. Any prices in U.S. dollars are listed as US$ or USD. Many hotels, restaurants and shops also accept major credit cards, which usually offer you a good exchange rate.
