The bay of Cabo San Lucas at the southern tip of Baja, was once a base for pirate ships waiting to pounce on Spanish treasure ships. Even fifteen years ago, was a little more than a fishing village and cannery occasionally visited by fishermen sporting adventure with the means to sail or fly, but quickly earned the reputation of the needle which could be captured, and periods of calm is inundated with fishermen in search of El Marlin Azul, home to the elegant, the radar-equipped fishing boats.
In recent years, has quickly become the center of Los Cabos: million dollar condos saw the palm trees have been transplanted, golf courses have been laid, water has been in line with San Jose and everywhere remains intact. Plus as an enclave for the U.S. to be part of Mexico, preserving almost nothing that is not geared towards tourism, which can be fun for a day or two, unless of course you want to fish or diving. Although prices are higher than in nearby San Jose, plus a festive atmosphere, with a younger audience. Currently there are 3000 rooms for rent, and the feeling is that 10,000 is the next possible “objective” to assimilate the city with the long-established tourism as Mazatlan or Acapulco. Upcoming events include a huge shopping mall which will include a conference center, a cinema complex, bowling alley, a large car park exit and condominiums, and there are even plans for an artificial island to sit in the bay, with restaurants and bars.
