Los Cabos Area Guide
Discover the Two Capes ~ Where Desert Meets Sea
There is no other place on Earth
quite like Los Cabos, a destination that attracts
visitors from all around the world. Los Cabos is comprised of primarily both Cabo San Lucas and San José
del Cabo with a stretch of shoreline making up Los Cabos expanding into three distinct areas: San José
del
Cabo, Cabo San Lucas and the 33-km (20-mile) Corridor
connecting them. Here, there is a
lot to admire—from golden beaches to rock formations, wide canyons to estuaries.

lovers.
