As a name, “Los Cabos” (translation: “The Capes”) is somehow inadequate, an oversimplification of
the place it describes. For how can one name, one label, be applied to a region
comprised of two villages as disparate as San Jose del Cabo, a quiet,
picturesque town that looks much like the 18th-century mission town it once was;
and Cabo San Lucas, a raucous fishing village and nightlife hub that jumps with
activity 24 hours a day—not to mention the 20-mile corridor dotted with
world-class resorts that connects the two?
Just as a single name fails to capture the essence of this
varied region located at the southernmost tip of Mexico’s Baja Peninsula (about 800 miles due south of San Diego), it’s also
difficult to pigeon-hole Los Cabos, the travel destination. It is a popular
honeymoon destination, a retirement community, a terrific choice for a family
vacation, a 7-day-a-week, 365-days-a-year nightlife hotspot, and a home for some
of the world’s best deep-sea fishing (the Sea of Cortez is a playground for
marlin—more than 40,000 are caught each year, many weighing in at more than
1,000 pounds—dorado, yellowfin tuna, red snapper, sea bass and roosterfish).
Oh, and it’s also one of the premiere golf destinations in
North America. There are eight championship
golf courses in Los Cabos and several more on the way. World-class resorts cater
to the traveling golfer. The frequent visitor can choose from a variety of
vacation ownership options, and there are a growing number of residential
opportunities as well, from luxury condominiums and villas to custom homes.

offerings.
