Must-See Activities in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

Land's End Rock Formations

The rock formations at the southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula are among the most iconic landmarks in the Los Cabos area. They are located where the Pacific Ocean meets the Sea of Cortez, known as Land's End. As you approach, you’ll be treated to breathtaking views of formations such as:

• El Arco ("The Arch"): This 200-foot granite arch is perhaps the most recognizable natural feature of Los Cabos. Occasionally, when the sea level drops, a beach is exposed beneath the arch, allowing visitors to walk underneath it.
• Roca Pelicanos ("Pelican Rock"): Situated on the northeast side of the cape, Roca Pelicanos hosts a variety of wildlife. In addition to the pelicans, you might also see sea urchins, pufferfish, angelfish, and other marine creatures among the coral polyps clinging to the rock's underside.
• La Lobera ("The Rookery"): This large, flat, wave-battered rock is a popular resting spot for sea lions. The area is also frequented by turtles, eels, whale sharks, and even octopuses.

To enjoy the best views of the Land's End rock formations, simply hop on a sailboat from the downtown marina. We suggest planning your outing around sunset, as the golden hour provides a stunning backdrop. Additionally, consider joining our Land's End Boat Tour shore excursion for a delightful one-hour sightseeing experience among the formations.

Dive into the Water

With its clear, azure waters, Cabo San Lucas is a paradise for water sports enthusiasts. One of the most enjoyable and accessible activities for visitors is snorkeling. Santa Maria Bay, Chileno Bay, and Land's End are prime snorkeling spots, teeming with diverse marine life. From September to May, you might even have the chance to encounter whale sharks in these waters.

Additional enjoyable water sports in the region include kayaking and paddleboarding, ideal for those who prefer close encounters with wildlife while staying above water. If you're interested in a combination of activities, consider our Three-in-One: Paddle, Kayak & Snorkel shore excursion, offering a taste of each experience.

Experience Whale-Watching

If water sports aren’t quite your thing but you still want to make the most of your time on the water, we suggest whale-watching. Humpback whales, gray whales, and various other species migrate to this region from December to April, providing visitors with unforgettable sights. From the comfort of your boat, you can observe these massive creatures breach, spout, and slap their large tails against the glistening surface, capturing some of the most memorable photos you'll ever take.

Experience Off-Roading

The stunning landscapes of Los Cabos are a key draw, particularly for off-road aficionados. Along the coastline, you'll discover various outfitters that rent utility terrain vehicles (UTVs) and arrange off-road tours. This high-speed way to explore Cabo San Lucas’s natural beauty is perfect for adventure seekers. For a more relaxed experience, you can also find rentals for horses, camels, or electric bicycles.

Dinogo also offers a range of convenient tour packages to maximize your off-roading experience. We provide two Off-Road UTV Adventure options: one for two passengers and another for four passengers. Additionally, you can join the Mexican Outback & Camel Ride, the Pacific Beach Horseback Ride, or the Electric Bike Beach Adventure, ensuring everyone can enjoy the wonders of Cabo San Lucas in their preferred style.
