Calling all thrill-seekers, adventure junkies, and those with a penchant for raising their adrenaline levels on their next overseas trip: Los Cabos wants you to come and visit – like, right now!
Easily reachable from Los Angeles and San Francisco in two-hours by plane, Los Cabos is an adventure playground up there with the best of them.
Plus, located at the southern tip of the Baja Peninsula in Mexico, it also just happens to be one of the most gorgeous parts of the planet! So there’s that too…
Oh, and don’t even get us started on the food – which is so delicious, so mouth-wateringly marvellous, that you may just decide to while your time away in Los Cabos by just eating…
But then that would be a real shame, because Los Cabos is full of awesome adventures that you just need to experience.
Here are eight such adventures that await you over in Los Cabos – the jewel of the Baja Peninsula!
