This just has to be one of the best places in the world. Great hotels, stunning beaches, unstoppable nightlife and coupled with dream Marlin fishing. "You are bound to fall in love with Cabo".
Today, Cabo remains a rustic resort town with restaurants covering a wide range of tastes and expenses. Gift shops sell a wide variety of products, Mexican arts, crafts and decorative items. Luxurious yachts are moored alongside fishing craft in the 300-boat Marina. Sumptuous resort hotels line the beaches on both the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortez, which meet at the magnificent rocky sentinel, known as “Land's End”. The hills and beaches of the town are sprinkled with luxurious homes and condominiums. Cabo retains much of its old world character and charm, and though no longer a sleepy fishing village, it remains the continent's centre of world-class big game fishing.
For some, it is a deserted strand of soft golden sand, meandering far into a peerless horizon. For others, a day at the beach includes the human element. A perfect place that is synonymous with bikinis, water sports and people watching. While other parts of the globe may boast their own beautiful beaches, Cabo San Lucas and the Los Cabo's area have abundant stunning coasts and, unlike much of the world, fewer crowds. Here, beaches offer a wide variety, from the wild and windswept Pacific Ocean coast, to the placid Sea of Cortez bays and coves; the latter seemingly created for nothing more than lazy days of snorkelling and lolling about in the surf.
Sure, the beaches are fantastic, the weather perfect and the people friendly, but above all this, and without a doubt, the fishing is what put Cabo "On the map". A stroll around the marina will confirm this, hundreds of sport fishing boats, ranging from humble "panga's" to sleek yachts, fill every inch of available dock space. The reason they are here...the fishing. No other destination in the world can rival Cabo for the number and variety of fish caught year round. Even if you are a novice and do not know anything about fishing, Cabo is a great place to start. Cabo is known as the "Marlin Capital of the World" and deservedly so, as there are more Marlin caught here than any other place on earth. All the activities and the vast range of accommodation we offer, from small private villas to all inclusive resorts, makes any trip to Cabo a lively one to remember.
One of the best things about being on holiday is staying up late . . . as late as you like. In Cabo's, the nightlife is lively, so you may be awake a lot longer than you think. Here, good fun abounds and variety is the name of the game. For those who like to party, Cabo San Lucas has some kind of nightlife entertainment for everyone.
