The boat peels away from the marina and the scent of salt and sun hits first—then the rocks come into view: the Arch at Land’s End rising from turquoise water, gulls cutting the sky, and the Pacific rolling in like a dare. You glide past Playa del Amor, the narrow channel that divides the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific, and for a moment the coastline reads like a geology lesson written in granite and wind.

History
El Arco marks a natural navigational point used by local fishermen and later tour operators; the shape is the product of millions of years of marine erosion on igneous rock.
Conservation
Use biodegradable sunscreen and avoid disturbing wildlife; operators typically follow local rules to protect pinniped haul-outs and fragile shoreline habitats.
