Los Cabos Overview

By Travel Expert: Candyce H. Stapen

Los Cabos (cabo means "cape") is Baja's premier vacation destination, stretching 20 miles along the Sea of Cortez at the bottom of the Baja Peninsula where the Pacific and Sea of Cortez meet. San Jose del Cabo, the traditional Spanish colonial city, and the resort town of Cabo San Lucas (Cabo), bookend Los Cabos. A multitude of resorts and golf courses line what's known as the "Corridor"—the rocky coastline between the two cities. Cabo San Lucas offers non-stop action in the form of activities, nightlife, and a full-service marina; San Jose del Cabo tends to be quieter, with boutique hotels and a more reserved atmosphere.
