A resort city at the southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula where the Sea of Cortez meets the Pacific Ocean, Cabo San Lucas is defined by the Los Arcos rock formation — a series of dramatic stone arches eroded by wave action where the two seas converge. Glass-bottomed boats bring visitors to the Playa del Amor beach beneath the arches, accessible only by water. The nutrient-rich cold upwelling waters support marlin and tuna populations that have made the area a celebrated sport fishing destination.
