Operated by Cabo by Sea · Cabo San Lucas, Baja California Sur
Located on Mexico’s southern tip, Cabo San Lucas anchors Baja California Sur, a region known for its vast desert landscapes meeting the Pacific Ocean’s rocky shoreline. Cabo by Sea offers a standout way to interact with this striking environment through their Outback & Camel Safari, a 3-hour guided journey blending desert wildlife, cultural immersion, and culinary delights.
Beginning with a comfortable shuttle ride from central Cabo San Lucas to Tierra Sagrada ranch, guests are introduced to the region’s uniquely adapted dromedary camels. These hardy desert natives carry riders on a scenic 20-minute trek that threads along arid dunes and coastal vistas, where the desert’s stony earth meets the ocean’s spray. This rare perspective offers a fresh way to observe Baja's resilient flora like creosote bushes and barrel cacti, alongside sightings of native fauna such as desert hares and coastal seabirds.
Following the ride, expert guides lead a cultural nature walk that unpacks local biodiversity and history, including how indigenous people have long navigated and celebrated this harsh but beautiful environment. The outing concludes with an authentic Mexican buffet featuring fresh regional ingredients paired with a mezcal and tequila tasting—a flavorful tribute to Baja’s rich culinary heritage.
What sets Cabo by Sea apart is their seamless blend of adventure, education, and flavor—all under an easygoing, family-friendly pace. Whether you’re a seasoned traveler seeking an unusual desert experience or a first-time visitor looking to understand Cabo beyond its beaches, the Outback & Camel Safari offers a memorable, well-rounded introduction to this extraordinary region.
