Traveling to Cabo San Lucas
The three options to travel to Los Cabos, offer their own interesting pros and cons to look out for. Driving offers a beautiful journey, but breaking down would put you in a tough situation with few services available. A cruise ship has all the commodities so you don’t have to worry about travel to Los Cabos, but it’s mostly about your time on the ship than anything else. You’ll barely have time to experience the full extent of visiting Los Cabos. That leaves us with the fastest way of visiting the region: flying to Cabo San Lucas. Flying to Cabo San Lucas is the best way to make the most of your experience, take it easy, and see all the Cabo tourist attractions in the area.
Now that you’ve decided to take a flight, let’s go over the general information about the airport and flights. Furthermore, let’s see what you can do with all the time saved flying to Los Cabos international airport.
Baja California Sur
The Baja California peninsula is the second longest in the world, measuring 775 miles in total length. Being divided into two states this peninsula is Baja California Norte and Baja California Sur (North and South). The Los Cabos International Airport is on the southern tip of Baja California Sur.
What is the Los Cabos Region?
Los Cabos represents the fishing villages, which is now a place full of luxurious resorts, offering all kinds of services for the most exclusive clients. But, let’s not forget that it all started as a fishing village founded Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo. Furthermore, together they shape the Los Cabos region. San José del Cabo is where you’ll find the Los Cabos international airport.
The Sea of Cortez
As it was mentioned before how Hernan Cortez was considered the explorer that found Baja California for the first time, it’s because of this that the sea next to it is called The Sea of Cortez. It is considered the most biologically-diverse body of water on Earth and it extends almost to the US border.
In this amazing area, with its pristine waters, you can do all sorts of things like Cabo snorkeling and swim alongside exotic tropical fish. If you’re interested in fishing, there are a number of professional guides that will take care of you.
