Point of Interests: San Jose Del Cabo, Cabo San Lucas

Tips:
  • Avoid taxi and shuttles if you can. They are pretty expensive. Stick with the bus. (Yellow/Blue color) They come about every 15 minutes and they run in the main road that connects San Jose Del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas. It's only 10 pesos per person and you can pay with dollars instead of Mexican peso (about $1 USD). It even takes you from SJD airport to San Jose Del Cabo; though you must first walk 20-30 minutes to get to the bus station.
  • Go to time share presentations if you don't mind wasting 2-4 hours of your entire trip. You usually get free transportations, free breakfast, free money and free activities as your reward.
  • Local fish taco places are very tasty. The restaurants near the beach can be expensive though some do provide quality food. Fish was better than shrimps and lobsters when we were there (in May).
  • Even though a lot of websites suggest you book the activities ahead, it generally only requires one day ahead. Especially if you go during low season (May-Oct), sometimes you can bargain with them while you are there.


Highlights of my trip:

  • Coming soon...

My Star Ratings:

  • The Office - Dinner and Show at Medano Beach. Food is pretty good but the show is just so-so.
  • Lover's Beach & Divorce Beach - Take a kayak out from Medano Beach. It takes only 15 minutes or so. Lots of fun. Great scenery. Huge waves on the divorce beach (pacific ocean side). Snorkeling is avaialbe here too.
  • Santa Maria Beach - Beautiful! A great place for snorkeling too.
  • Zipper's Beach - Fairly nice. This is the place for surfing. Although we didn't get to surf here... The surf shop that offers lessons close by is quite expensive. You can find a better deal else where.
  • Club Cascadas - A great resort at Cabo San Lucas! Unique architecture and room decorations. Private Jacuzi. Max. 4 stories. Less crowded than most other resorts. 2 swimming pools. 1 tennis court. Beach front.
  • Jungle Cruise - The cruise takes you out in the ocean from the marina by Medano beach to Santa Maria beach for snorkel. It's a "college spring break" cruise. If you are into loud music, free cheap bear and cookies, this is the right place for you.
