More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step onto the Main Dock Marina with the salt already in the air and a trimaran waiting like a low-slung promise of blue. The Cabo Blue crew hands over a welcome drink, and the city’s cluster of white hotels and rust-red cliffs falls away as the boat slips past the cruise ships toward Land’s End. The Arch — carved by wind, tide and time — rises from the Sea of Cortez and seems to dare you to get closer.
