Description

Experience the beauty of San Jose del Cabo
Your outing begins with a transfer from your resort to the city of San Jose del Cabo. Your certified guide will take you to the San Jose Estuary, a wetland area where you can spot fascinating wildlife, as well as the Fisherman Monument and La Playita Fish Market in the community of Puerto Los Cabos. In downtown San Jose, immerse into the city’s past at the main square by learning about the Spanish colonization, as well as the roles that pirates, Jesuit missionaries and indigenous peoples played in shaping history in the area.

Explore Cabo San Lucas by land

Next up, enjoy the panoramic views of the Sea of Cortez as you head toward Cabo San Lucas. There, visit a glassblowing factory to see how artisans create glass works. Then pass by the historic Old Lighthouse (Faro Viejo) before visiting a ‘tequilera’ specialty shop to sample tequila flavors and learn about the distillation process. Finally, explore the 100-year history of the Old Tuna Cannery. Your guide will then take you to the Cabo marina where a unique boat awaits to take you on a sea bound adventure.

Encounter Los Cabos on a glass-bottomed boat

Sailing to where the Pacific Ocean and the Gulf of California meet, find photo-worthy landscapes such as the Arch, Pelican Rock and Lovers and Divorce beaches. Sea lions call the beaches home, and you’ll have a chance to see them sunning themselves on the sand and rocks. And remember to look down, as your glass-bottomed boat allows you to see beautiful sea life swimming below you. When your sea excursion wraps up, head back to your resort in an air-conditioned vehicle after a full encounter with the highlights in Los Cabos.

Add on another hour for lunch

If exploring the sights of Los Cabos is not enough, make sure to try the flavor of the area as well. Add another hour to your excursion so you can stop for lunch at El Coral restaurant in Cabo San Lucas. This eatery serves Mexican delicacies like fish tacos, chicken fajitas and shrimp quesadillas, so you can come away with the taste of an authentic Los Cabos encounter.
