Adventures in Baja California Sur

Los Cabos has become famous for its endless variety of activities, great restaurants, hot nightlife, and outstanding fishing and golf. You can also enjoy all types of watersports, such as kayaking, sailing, boogie boarding, water-skiing, snorkeling, diving and parasailing. Equipment can be rented at Medano Beach, the main beach of Cabo San Lucas.

Snorkeling and SCUBA diving are excellent for all levels near the arch. For the less experienced, try Pelican Rock, Neptune's Finger and the Sea Lion Colony. Advanced divers will be amazed by the Abyss, 100 feet from the arch.

Cabo offers an incredible range of outdoor opportunities, from long, empty beaches to desert and mountain challenges. Guided day hikes and eco-tours to backcountry sites include the Hot Springs near Santiago, a small village an hour north of San Jose. This is an easy uphill hike through a maze of boulders and rock formations. At the top are pools of clear water perfect for relaxing and picnicking. Other hiking and natural history tours feature fossil fields, challenging hikes into the Sierra de la Laguna and day trips to old mining ghost towns.
