Los Cabos Tid Bits
Los Cabos (The Capes) actually refers to two towns
─ San Jose del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas ─ and to the 20-mile corridor
that connects the towns at the south end of the Baja Peninsula.
Though both resorts boast white beaches and tranquil, turquoise
waters, Cabo San Lucas attracts large sport-fishing fleets and more than 1,500,000
visitors annually.
Whether visiting the natural rock arches of El Arco and Land's
End (where the Pacific and Sea of Cortez meet), or surfing the gigantic swells of
Boca del Tule, there is something spectacular to behold for Los Cabos visitors.
Activities abound for the adventurous and sports-minded. Fishing
is still the main draw of the area, with 1000+ pound Marlin still a possibility.
Dive ships offer full snorkel and scuba trips, including all equipment and the safety
of a modern decompression chamber at the marina. A new marina being built at San
Jose with 400,000 million investment.
Golf is a major issue, with 8 champion designed courses, and
340 sunny days a year, if you are serious about golfing, so is Los Cabos.
All-terrain ground vehicle tours get you to the outlying mountains
and coastlines. Moonlit horseback riding along miles of deserted beach, culinary
delights abound and dancing 'til dawn rounds out the evening pleasures available.
Los Cabos is just beginning. The steps taken as recently as December
1993 in liberalization of property ownership rights, foreign business operation
procedure, and advantageous tax treatment are indicators of Mexico's desire
to attract and keep foreign interest and investors.
In these important times, Los Cabos is securing it's place
as a leading world class tourist destination, and a center for pleasure and profit
for Mexican and foreigner alike for years to come.
