Cabo San Lucas Hotels

Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

Situated on the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula in Mexico, Cabo San Lucas – more commonly known as Cabo – is a hugely popular tourist destination, and it is not difficult to see why. Picture-perfect beaches, beautiful warm waters full of marine life, superb local wine, delicious fresh seafood and vibrant nightlife are just a few of the reasons to visit.

Sightseeing and Activities

An essential item for the itinerary is a visit to Cabo Dolphins, a marine mammal educational center where one can swim with bottlenose dolphins. There are also dedicated activities for small children as well as programs for those wanting to spend the day with a trainer to learn more about these fascinating, friendly creatures.

One of the most prominent landmarks in the area is El Arco de Cabo San Lucas. This world-famous rock formation is a natural arch that can serve as the backdrop for some stunning photographs. It is reached via water taxis departing from the Cabo San Lucas Marina, which is also the starting point of whale watching tours.

Other activities on the water include sailing, fishing and surfing. Those who prefer to stay on land can relax by the pool at one of the luxury resorts or sunbathe on one of the many gorgeous beaches. For the ultimate indulgence, there are a number of lavish spas offering massages and beautifying treatments.

Dining and Nightlife

Cabo San Lucas is famous for its thriving nightlife – numerous clubs, bars and lively cantinas create a party atmosphere and attract hordes of young people. Some of the most popular venues are the Cabo Wabo Cantina, El Squid Roe and the Jungle Bar.

The Corridor, a 20-mile stretch of land connecting the town to San Jose del Cabo, is home to a number of resorts and beaches, along with an abundance of restaurants. This is the place to go for seafood dishes as well as a wide selection of international cuisine.

Cabo is located in the state of Baja California Sur, Mexico’s primary wine production region. Connoisseurs can tempt their palate by taking a trip to the Los Cabos winery.

Shopping 

From art galleries and independent gems to large shopping complexes, there are plenty of places in Cabo to indulge in some retail therapy. Craft stalls can be found at Mercado Mexicano, whereas the opulent and beautifully designed Puerto Paraiso Mall provides an entirely different kind of shopping experience. In the heart of the downtown area, this mega mall houses various upscale brands such as Tiffany & Co, Hermès and Cartier – not to mention several movie theaters, a bowling alley and many eateries.
