When you stroll along Cabo’s marina
boardwalk that snakes around the beautiful bay in this stunning area of Baja
California, Mexi (Baja boasts the world’s longest peninsula), you’ll be accosted but
oodles of people selling wares, including tour excursions. I was lucky to meet
Roberto Arellano who reps for the tour company, Los Dorados; you’ll see his
booth near the mountain. An affable non-pushy fellow whose English is perfect,
Roberto took care of my needs to explore the Sea of Cortes.
First off, he put me on a great little boat that took me on a tour that passed beaches and coastline all the way to Cabo’s famous Los Arcos. The waves were rough as we neared this impressive structure that juts out of the Sea of Cortez.

The exuberant captain kept pointing out
beaches, blurting their names, including Lovers Beach that
windowed into Divorce Beach on the Pacific Ocean, it’s called Divorce Beach,
because the waves are impossible to swim in (like a bad marriage you’re
drowning in), but also you can go pass through a stone entry from one beach to
the other. First comes love, then comes divorce.

We also passed by many sand stone rock
structures that has Rock, their own names due to their shapes: Pelican Rock,
The Witch (La Bruja) the Finger, King Kong’s Hand, and finally Land’s End where
two real pelicans perch.
They seem to announce the very spot where the
sea of Cortez merges with the Pacific.
Just before rounding the bend to get to Land's End, we came to a colony of sea lions.What a thrill!
Approaching the Arch
The famous Arch
 The Arch is beautiful at every time of day. |
The water taxi was a glass bottom boat; we
could see fish swimming at certain spots. It was really fun, and our eyes were
kept busy looking up and then down to take it all in.
Roberto also set me on a sunset excursion
on the double-decker Cabo Escape cruiser. It took us far out, and with whales
in our midst, music at our ears, food galore and drinks to enjoy.
The climax
came in an inspirational finale: the sun sinking over the crest of the sea.
The sun is gone; the sky is gorgeous
My
snorkeling excursion on Oceanos cruiser was fantastic. We headed out for beautiful Chilenos Bay
and dove in. This vessel carried very good snorkeling equipment.
I also went whale watching on a tour that Robert set up for me.
I recommend you take the tour to the Arch soon after you arrive, and if you like ti and the service Roberto provided, ask
him for more. He also generously gives discounts. He wants to make every wish
come true for you. And he succeeds.
Contrary to popular belief, Los Cabos is
the playground for the wealthy and not-so wealthy alike. Its breathless beauty
does not discriminate.
