Take a slower approach and rent a kayak to check out the coast and some of the most exclusive beauty spots only available from being in the water. Last but not least take and take an excursion on a glass bottom boat ride. Explore the
unusual rock formations, the sea lion colony and get a great look at the tropical fish as you sail around the Arch to Lovers Beach. Once known as Playa de Doña Chepa, Lover’s Beach is another must, but to get to this hidden cove you’ll need some kind of floating transportation. Easiest travel option is to hire a water taxi at the marina. The captain will take you on an informative tour of the diving areas around the arch (El Arco), point out Lover’s Beach, then go around the popular point for a wonderful view of a breathtaking view where the Sea of Cortez meets the Pacific Ocean. We suggest you pack a lunch of your choice, your favorite beverage and plan on spending the better part of the day enjoying Lover’s Beach and the striking wind and water shaped rock formations. A boat ride over to Lover’s Beach is must see marvel when visiting Cabo San Lucas. For exceptional ocean side vacationing book the your accommodations Passion at Me by Melia.
