Here the sea, sun and desert join to cast an air of
mystery and romance over all who visit! Cabo was once a
tranquil fishing village and, in times long ago, a hangout for
pirates.
Although no longer the fishing village of old, and not
many of the old pirates are seen around town any more, the
magic of Cabo remains. Still small, with a population of under 30,000, Cabo is charming by any
standards. (We do have 4
stop lights now!) With the number of activities available
to the visitor, you could easily imagine you are in a giant
amusement park.
Cabo has come of age. Located at the southernmost tip
of the magnificent Baja peninsula, Cabo has been blessed with
what many describe as the perfect climate, with an average year-round
temperature of 78 degrees, (a little cooler in the winter
and a bit warmer in the summer).
For years Cabo was the remote
playground reserved solely for private yacht owners. They
flocked here to be near "Marlin Alley", as the waters around
Cabo have often been described. The name is well deserved, as
Cabo San Lucas is the undisputed billfish capital of the
world.
But Cabo is far from remote these days, and the
attraction of this magical spot is no longer limited to marlin
fishing. Cabo can be many different things to people. Cabo
San Lucas has become known as the perfect vacation spot for the
entire family. Cabo can be as quiet, romantic and
relaxing as any secret hideaway, and it can be as lively as
anyone can possibly imagine. If your wish is to enjoy a quiet
candlelight dinner, beside the shimmering sea for just the two
of you, we have some of the most romantic dining spots on the
face of the earth.
If water sports, boating,
fishing, golf, ATVs, horseback riding and numerous other activities
are what you seek, they're all here, waiting for you.
If "party till you drop" is the mood of the evening,
Cabo has got it for you, big time!
Did I mention beaches? From the main beach at Playa Medano- one of the
great people watching spots in the world- to quiet Playa del
Amor, (Lover's Beach), a short boat ride away, we've got beaches! There are
countless quiet coves, where you'll most likely find no
other footprints in the sand. Miles and miles of
deserted beaches, on both the Pacific coast and the shoreline
of the Sea of Cortez, make for an unbelievable vacation area;
the kind beach lovers dream of! Snorkeling at either of
the beautiful bays of Santa Maria or Chileno seems to be the
very reason snorkeling was invented.
The sport fishing is unparalleled in the world. You can fish for Marlin
of the blue, black and striped variety. Sailfish, Dorado, (also
known as mahi mahi or dolphin fish), Tuna, Wahoo, Roosterfish
and endless varieties of bottom fish and surf fish. Cabo is,
by far, the world's very best all around location for sport
fishing. Even if you are not a fisherman, you should try your
hand at fishing while visiting Cabo. Landing your very
first marlin is an experience that you will treasure for a
lifetime. PLEASE RELEASE ALL BILLFISH !!
