2. The Arch

At the tip of the Baja Peninsula stands a craggy rock formation, in the shape of an arch, that towers over the ocean. El Arco is like the gateway to the ocean and has a majestic appearance, reminiscent of another world. The arch has been carved over time, as rough winds and the waters of the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortez erode the rocks away. This part of the Baja Peninsula, also known as Land’s End, is one of the most popular attractions in Cabo San Lucas.

6. Costa Azul Beach

Costa Azul Beach (Blue Coast Beach) is a place chosen by surfers, both locals and tourists, to ride impressive waves. Along this laid-back beach, go for long walks and take beautiful panoramic photos. Tides can be strong, so it’s common to see just a few rather expert surf aficionados in the water. Explore the area to taste great food and participate in fun activities, such as fishing and horseback riding.
