Are you ready to sail away to Los Cabos?
Cruise ship passengers get very excited to see the Arch of Land’s End where the Pacific Ocean meets the Sea of Cortez in Los Cabos, perhaps spotting whales, dolphins, or seals along the way.
Those cruise ships anchor offshore and tender passengers to the marina that is a ten-minute walk to the heart of Cabo San Lucas. This is one way to encounter the aquatic sights but there are plenty of flights into Los Cabos Airport and so many resorts beckoning that can direct or transport you to the marinas where charter companies are waiting.
Some sample water excursions in Cabo San Lucas to the Arch, Lovers Beach, and Pelican Rock from $40-$99 are:
- Glass bottom boat.
- Sunset Pirate Ship Cruise.
- Sunset Party Cruise with Open Bar or Mexican Flavors, Dinners, or DJs.
- Catamaran Whale Watching.
- Paddle Boarding or Kayaking.
- Snorkeling or Scuba Diving Tours.
- Parasailing.
- Swimming with the Dolphins.
The variety of tropical fish, birds and marine life is amazing to witness. Once you experience the Sea of Cortez intimately by boat, the sensation stays with you.
When you play golf on any of the ocean view courses in Los Cabos and see the vessels in the distance, it will instill a sense of calm for making just the right swings on all the challenging holes.
Los Cabos currently has 18 courses including Cabo San Lucas Country Club. This 18-hole course was carved into the desert terrain with views of the sea and the Arch at Land’s End by Roy Dye, brother of Pete Dye.
Summer green fees range from $70-$195 for visitors depending on time of day and some rates include food and beverage options.
Where To Stay When You Sail Away To Los Cabos
Cabo San Lucas Country Club is located within the affordable Los Cabos Golf Resort, part of the Trademark collection by Wyndham. Suites and villas include kitchenettes or fully equipped kitchens for cooking your fresh catch from the sea.
Better yet, the Double Eagle Restaurant and Bar spans around two pools delivering international fare. Extended stay rates, golf and spa packages and all-inclusive premium options are available.
Cabo San Lucas Country Club is minutes from the heart of downtown Cabo San Lucas and 30 miles from the airport.
Another all-inclusive option is the upscale, adult only Marquis Hotel and Spa Resort.
A fruity cocktail or glass of champagne accompanies a little ocean breeze and huge ocean view for a warm welcome in the open-air reception, like a painting that comes to life. Every room has an ocean front balcony to enjoy watching the waves crash on the creamy sand around the clock, both mesmerizing and lulling. Infinity edge pools overlook the deep blue Sea of Cortez where entertainers provide fun and games.
Samba lessons anyone?
Relax, walk, or ride horses along the beach.
Any aches or pains may be relieved by therapists in the spa.
When hungry, six all-inclusive restaurants serve excellent dishes from the poolside ceviche to Benihana style Asian cuisine at Sakke.
Centrally located, the airport is 18 miles away and great golf is minutes away in either direction at all 18 courses.
