Cabo San Lucas sits at the dramatic tip of Mexico's Baja Peninsula, where the desert meets the sea at the iconic granite arch known as El Arco. It's a tender port — ships anchor in the bay — opening onto a lively marina of restaurants and water-sports operators, with golden beaches, sportfishing, and a famous nightlife scene. The scenery of sea lions, pelicans, and that natural rock arch is the star.
Médano Beach is swimmable, but the water near Lover's Beach and El Arco has strong Pacific-side currents — heed the guides. Since it's a tender port, head ashore early and confirm the last-tender time before you wander.
