Denna’s guidebook to Cabo San Lucas
Sightseeing
Is any beach town complete without a trip to the local marina? We think not! The marina is super accessible from plenty of the top tier resorts, so grab your travel buddies and spend the day browsing through shops and snacking at local and national chain eateries, all while admiring the view. In the harbor, you'll count endless yachts and find yourself sampling every type of ethnic cuisine imaginable and scoring great deals on swimsuits, souvenirs, and more.
If you forgot something at home – drat! – and need to restock, stop by the Puerto Paraiso Mall, if you're on a budget, or Luxury Avenue for a splurge-worthy beach bag or pair of sunnies. If you plan on booking one of the many aquatic adventures in Cabo San Lucas, most cruises and ships depart from this marina.

f you're an art lover, there's no better day trip than Todos Santos. It's a bit of a contrast from the beach life, since the Sierra de la Laguna mountain range is tucked behind the area, but it features beauty in a different way. The town is most famously known for the original Hotel California, for which the song by the Eagles was written. You can stay at this iconic destination for a night or two, or just visit, making your way through cafes and other attractions.
Those who have an eye for fine art will enjoy browsing countless galleries and visiting the Professor Nestor Agundez Martinez Cultural Center, which offers a bit of history immersion. Todos Santos is still considered a hidden gem, with small beaches and local experiences, so you might not battle too many tourists as you explore.

If you prefer your beach experiences to be less crowded, skip Playa del Amor and its counterpart and set up shop here instead. It's a bit farther away but worth the drive if you enjoy a secluded shoreline over a busy one. Because it's a protected marine sanctuary, you'll not only enjoy the R&R, but you have the chance to see many harmless (and colorful) species of fish in the water. Many tourists will take advantage of the robust sea life and rent snorkels for an afternoon of peeking below the surface of the water.

Food scene
Asi y Asado is located right up the road, it is about a 10 minute walk. Asi y Asado became very popular after Guy Fieri, from the Food Network show "Diners, Drive-ins and Dives", visited here. It was aired on his show many years ago and is still very popular. Very delicious taco's, baked potatoes, Mexican plates and they have a full bar!

This is one of our favorite sushi restaurants located on the other side of the freeway in the Walmart shopping center. Always has the freshest fish and very good prices, it won't break the bank like some of the other sushi restaurants located downtown.

Go Whale Watching
Between the months of October and March, you can cross a big one off your bucket list. And by "big," we mean huge - seeing a whale! The Baja Peninsula happens to attract the sea's largest creature because of its position on the map and the many lagoons that are scattered around the area. When whales are in their migration period of the year, tourism tends to flourish, making it a more expensive time to visit. How do you see one of these massive swimmers? You can sign up for a Cabo San Lucas Whale Watching Adventure to hopefully put you in the heart of the action.
