    A really amazing beach you get there by paying at the marina to take a small trip down; about 150 pesos each person. MUST DO

    Part of a boat tour

    Much more interesting is the boat tour itself including seeing dolphins. BUT it's a nice beach with very strong undertow. Few rocks is good.

    Secluded beach

    What an incredible place with an amazing vibe. This secluded beach is reachable by boat/ water taxi only, unless you hike there, but that may be challenging. Bring along snacks and water.

    Depending on the waves, it might be tricky for you to get in and out of the boat so I probably wouldn't recommend it for you although I'm 64 and didn't have any problems. As mentioned by others, there are no amenities there... More

    4th of July trip report (long) (6 Replies)
    This was our fist trip to Cabo. Following the reviews, I chose Siesta Suites in downtown. It turned out to be an excellent choice. Highly recommended: Clan and quiet and right in the middle of the action. Gordo Lele's taco stand is just around the corner...There's a bar a block or two up from RIP (forgot the name) with a 2 drink for $4 special. We were frequent guests. The trip started badly: Over one hour of waiting at United check-in before leaving and another hour at the Mexican...More

    Thanks for the report. You sound like me, like the quiet small places like Siesta Suites. How are the new upgraded rooms?? Yes, there are many restaurants that think tourists like to pay high prices for meals. Thats why Trappers list is so good. Its geared for good eats and cheaper prices. You're right, the $$$ signs would probably be a good idea. Too bad about the camera. You'd think you'd be safer at a small place like Siesta Suites. And yes, no doubt a fellow traveler that happened to...More

    Help!!! sunset cruise tours... can't choose?!! (4 Replies)
    Hey everyone, I am trying to choose a sunset cruise and am not sure which one is best... I have 2 children which will be with me and would like to have drinks and food included... Any feedback? I am considering these 3 choices: 1. Sunset Cruise Tour - provided by TransCabo 2. Pez Gato Sunset Cruise - Sails to Playa del Amor, the famous Arch, the sea lion colony, Lands End, and into the Pacific for a gorgeous Cabo sunset. Includes appetizers and open bar. 3. Tropicat Sunset Cruise
