More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The first salt breeze arrives before the marina does: a clean, briny note that lifts the heat and promises movement. Step aboard a brand-new 38-foot private yacht at Dock B and the city’s skyline tilts away—low hotels give way to sheer rock and open water. The captain trims the lines, the engine settles to an even hum, and within minutes Land’s End and the famous stone arch, El Arco, come into view, carved where the Pacific meets the Sea of Cortez.
