even more impressive. Professional golfer Ernie Els and his team at Ernie Els Design have begun work on a new 18-hole golf course situated merely 15 minutes from downtown Cabo San Lucas. Opening in 2026, this course is set to be the centerpiece for the expansive 860-acre oceanfront resort Oleanda Pacific Living & Golf. The name Oleanda, which means “wave” in Spanish, perfectly captures the essence of its location nestled alongside the Pacific Ocean and framed by the stunning desert landscape. Given its pristine natural environment, the construction of Oleanda will necessitate minimal earth movement. “Man cannot improve upon what Mother Nature has sculpted over eons. The Oleanda golf course will stand the test of time, long outliving me. This realization fills me with immense pride,” says Els, reflecting on this project. Once complete, Oleanda Golf Links Los Cabos will be the 22nd addition to Los Cabos’ illustrious list of golf courses. Meanwhile, construction is ongoing

Additionally, golf enthusiasts have another event to look forward to: the annual Los Cabos Golf Pro-Am. This anticipated event will return in early 2024, from January 7 to 11. The best ball competition will unfold across three premier venues: Cabo del Sol Golf Club, Solmar Golf Links at Rancho San Lucas, and Quivira Golf Club.
ON-COURSE CUISINE For most golfers, the focus stays fixed on the next shot — until the pangs of hunger begin. Golfing in Mexico, especially in Los Cabos, offers an indulgence beyond scenic fairways. Many courses in this picturesque region have transformed routine breaks into gourmet experiences with their exceptional comfort stations, often serving delectable Mexican cuisine. Typically, one can anticipate a comfort station on the front nine and another on the back nine. Puerto Los Cabos Golf Club takes this gastronomic experience up a notch. Their culinary palapas, offering all-inclusive food and beverages, beckon golfing guests up to four times during a round. Each of these welcoming shelters features a dedicated bartender and chef, ensuring fresh flavors with a menu rotation every fortnight for an ever-evolving gourmet experience. For those seeking a buzzing social hub, Cabo Real Golf Club stands out. Its open-air restaurant and bar double as a rendezvous point for golfers, locals, and tourists exploring San José del Cabo. With its laid-back vibes, shaded seating, and tuneful melodies, the space offers a menu brimming with culinary delights. The allure of Cabo San Lucas Country Club transcends its fairways. It’s not just its reputation as a top-tier course that attracts visitors but also the charm of the Viva Restaurant. Whether one craves a succulent rib-eye steak or sumptuous jumbo shrimp, dining here is an experience in itself. Amid live music and the backdrop of nighttime driving range activities, diners can enjoy their feast with their favorite beverage in hand, witnessing friends and families honing their skills under shimmering lights. For those venturing to La Paz, El Cortés Puerta Cortés Golf Club offers the perfect wind-down spot post-game. The clubhouse, elevated to offer sweeping views of both the course and the marina, exudes relaxation. Patrons can choose between dining at the Cardón Restaurant or relishing a tranquil evening at the Hoyo 19 Cigar Bar’s open-air terrace.

DIAMANTE CABO SAN LUCAS — EL CARDONAL The 18-hole championship course at El Cardonal marked Tiger Woods’s architectural debut. With dramatic views of the Pacific Ocean and natural arroyos, mature vegetation, and native dunes, the par-72 course measures 7,363 yards. The design is clearly influenced by the old-style courses of Southern California, where Woods grew up playing. diamantecabosanlucas.com
DIAMANTE CABO SAN LUCAS — THE OASIS SHORT COURSE Also designed by Tiger Woods, the Oasis is a 12-hole short course and the first par-3 course in Los Cabos. The course weaves through lush vegetation with over 400 palm trees and an eight-acre lake. It’s ideal for families and beginners but also a fun practice course for experienced golfers. The Oasis Short Course is designed to appeal to members and guests of all ability levels, from novice to expert. diamantecabosanlucas.com

GOLF GOOD TO KNOW
During the winter months golfers are treated to incredible views of breaching whales as they make their annual migrations.
Several courses in Los Cabos garnered recognition. In Golfweek’s Best of 2023, which ranks the top 50 courses across Mexico, the Caribbean, Atlantic islands, and Central America, a remarkable 12 courses from Los Cabos made the cut. These celebrated courses include Diamante Dunes (#3); Cabo del Sol, Cove Club (T12); Chileno Bay (T12); Querencia (T14); Solmar Golf Links (#18); El Dorado Golf & Beach Club (#19); Twin Dolphin (#21); Diamante Cabo San Lucas, El Cardonal (#26); Quivira (T37); Puerto Los Cabos (#40), Costa Palmas (in Ribera) (#41), and Cabo del Sol, Desert (#42).
EL DORADO GOLF & BEACH CLUB Stretching to 7,322 yards, the legendary Jack Nicklaus designed this par72, 18-hole brute. This private course on The Corridor offers spectacular play opportunities as it winds through desert landscapes featuring colorful canyons and arroyos. The course at El Dorado offers an unforgettable experience for anyone fortunate enough to play it. eldoradobeachclub.com
PALMILLA GOLF CLUB Famous for its 27 holes, many featuring spectacular views of the Sea of Cortés, Palmilla Golf Club was the first major course built in Los Cabos, opening in 1992. Palmilla was also Jack Nicklaus’s first designed course in Latin America. With three distinctive nines — Arroyo, Mountain, and Ocean — the course gently guides golfers through 800 vertical feet of Baja California Sur terrain. palmillagc.com
PUERTO LOS CABOS GOLF CLUB Also part of Questro Golf, Puerto Los Cabos Golf Club features a unique 27 holes. Jack Nicklaus designed two 9-hole tracks, and Greg Norman built the third 9-hole course. Bunkers and dramatic elevation changes mark the recent additions made

by Nicklaus. Golfers can play the course in any combination: The par-72 Ocean-Vista combination measures 7,199 yards; the par-72 Vista-Mission combination stretches to 7,213; and the par-72 Mission-Ocean combination is 7,166 yards. Future plans call for Puerto Los Cabos to offer two separate 18-hole courses. questrogolf.com
QUERENCIA GOLF CLUB One of Mexico’s premier private clubs, this Tom Fazio–designed course is renowned for its multitiered greens and challenging play across steep hills and bluffs — with several holes skirting the edges of deep canyons and rocky arroyos. Its 18 holes span more than 300 beautifully manicured acres, and the par-72 course stretches to 7,050 yards. loscabosquerencia.com
QUIVIRA GOLF CLUB Opened in 2014, Quivira Golf Club quickly established itself as one of the best new courses in the world. The dazzling 7,085-yard layout recently made Golf Digest’s elite roster of the World’s 100 Greatest Golf Courses. This stunning par-72, 18-hole course is set along massive sand dunes, rugged cliffs, and white-sand beaches. With views of the Pacific Ocean from all 18 holes, Quivira offers more oceanfront exposure than any other course in Los Cabos. A second 18-hole track on the same property is still under construction. quiviragolfclub.com
SOLMAR GOLF LINKS The centerpiece of an 834-acre community set on the Pacific Ocean, the Greg Norman Signature Solmar Golf Links opened in 2020. Known for his “least-disturbance” design approach, the 18-hole course features a low-profile layout that left the site’s existing contours intact and offers sweeping ocean views from every hole. The result is a 7,210yard, par-72 course that spans three separate ecosystems: across windswept dunes, up through a cactus forest, and back toward the sea on the back nine. Norman also integrated indigenous grass varietals that require the least amount of water, building an eco-friendly experience that flows naturally with the landscape. solmargolf.com
TWIN DOLPHIN GOLF CLUB Twin Dolphin Golf Club rises more than 590 feet above sea level and boasts a naturalistic layout that features sweeping views of the Sea of Cortés from every hole. Course architect and PGA Hall of Fame inductee Fred Couples worked on the course’s routing and strategic design with Todd Eckenrode of Origins Golf Design to make it “a course that all players can enjoy.” The par-72, 18-hole course measures 7,156 yards. There is also a kids’ course: an 18-hole, par-71 course that measures 2,300 yards. There are no tee times at Twin Dolphin, just Cabo time! twindolphinloscabos.com/golf
VIDANTA GOLF One of the most enjoyable golf outings in Los Cabos is the nine-hole, par-35 Vidanta Golf in San José del Cabo that measures 3,153 yards and is semi-flat. But don’t be fooled by the modest measurements, as they present quite a few challenging holes, including water and bunkers. Though it’s the oldest course in Los Cabos, Vidanta is widely considered one of its best values. vidantagolf.com

For over four decades, the Valdez Family has been navigating the East Cape waters with an enduring passion for fishing. Their story began with the founder, Chuy Valdez, settling in Buena Vista and kindling a deep love for angling. Since then, they’ve charted courses across the Sea of Cortés and the Pacific Ocean, meticulously seeking out prime locations for deep-sea fishing, offshore expeditions, and the art of fly-fishing. Their quest revolves around prized catches like sailfish, snapper, tuna, and their personal favorite — the blue marlin — among a diverse array of aquatic species. Fishing, a bonding activity par excellence, is an expedition into the heart of the ocean's mysteries. South Baja Outfitters at Buena Vista Oceanfront & Hot Springs Resort has curated an exceptional team of seasoned captains, sailors, and devoted “panga” owners. Their collective dedication is vested in crafting unparalleled and enduring adventures for every guest.

PRIVATE TOURS
For those keen on biking or hiking, outfitters like Mexico Planners have you covered with mountain biking trails and half-day hikes. These outings offer an unparalleled chance to quietly observe wildlife in its natural setting. However, an early start is recommended; by late morning, the desert’s blaring heat can become quite intense. If the sun does get to you, take a refreshing plunge in one of the waterfalls cascading off the cliffsides into cooling freshwater pools, most notably the gushing 40-foot spray of water found at Fox Canyon, known as “La Cola de La Zorra” or “The Tail of the Fox.” Just past the waterfall is a sweet side hike trip to the Rancho Ecológico Sol de Mayo, where you can order up an authentic Mexican lunch complete with a refreshing beer. You don’t have to stay tethered to the ground either, as exhilarating zip-lining, skydiving, and rappelling tours off the mountainside cliff faces truly give a mind-blowing view of the spectacular Desert Park Ecological Preserve backdrop.

Today’s plush spa facilities pamper enthusiasts with similar hydrotherapy philosophies and enduring rituals, coupled with contemporary approaches designed to link wellness from body to mind to soul. While many sanctuaries tune in to a global palette for remedies showcased in

On the heels of receiving a 2023 Spa & Wellness Award presented by the prestigious Travel & Hospitality Awards Program, Sound Healing Los Cabos relies on the vibrations from bronze Tibetan bowls and other musical instruments to induce deep relaxation. Javier Montiel leads an Aquatic Sound & Bowl Ceremony created to connect consciousness with the body and its needs as it harmonizes the system on physical, emotional, and spiritual levels. Muscle regeneration, shoulder and joint pain relief, improved circulation, and headache and migraine relief are among the conditions from which sound healing can benefit. Sessions are held in studio, with special programs hosted at resort spas throughout Baja California Sur. Regardless of the spa and therapies you select during your Los Cabos holiday, know that you will be nourished by a creative selection of indulgences to inspire your personal wellness journey both physically and spiritually.

CABO SAN LUCAS Cabo San Lucas, commonly referred to as Cabo, is a resort city nestled at the very tip of the Baja peninsula. This is home to the renowned rock formations known as Land’s End. The magnificent El Arco, sculpted by years of wind and wave erosion, stands today as one of the region’s most iconic landmarks. A trip to Cabo San Lucas isn’t complete without a photo by the arch, and what better way to capture this moment than aboard a luxury yacht? Of the numerous yacht charter companies, Pisces Sportfishing shines as the most esteemed. This region is celebrated for its

In recent years, the East Cape has attracted the eyes of various developers, leading to the blossoming of offthe-grid beachfront homes. For instance, Grupo Vidanta is spearheading an ambitious project just a 15-minute drive north of San José del Cabo’s marina. Heading further north, La Ribera emerges as a rapidly developing town, hosting eminent establishments like The Four Seasons and Aman Hotel and Residences. Los Barriles, another fishing town, has shed its once-quiet demeanor while still garnering significant attention, especially for the annual Los Barriles offshore fishing tournament. If the allure of the untouched beckons, then the East Cape presents a golden investment opportunity. While parts of it remain in development, offering secluded retreats to disconnect from the urban hustle, there are also wellequipped, serene areas perfect for beach relaxation, surfing, snorkeling, horseback riding, gastronomic delights, hiking, and so much more.
THE PACIFIC SIDE Heading out of Cabo San Lucas toward La Paz, the serene area of Migriño greets you first. Continue a 40-minute drive, and the quaint towns of Pescadero and Cerritos unfold. Although tranquil and sparsely populated, these towns have seen steady growth over recent years, offering an array of experiences. From turtle releases (seasonal) and surf breaks to swimmable beach spots, ATV trails, hiking paths, spas, and a wealth of farm-to-table restaurants, there’s no shortage of activities. The emphasis on farm-to-table dining has roots in the town’s rich agricultural heritage, thanks to the water flowing down from the Sierra. This abundance of fresh produce has captivated contemporary chefs, leading to various culinary delights using the freshest fruits and vegetables. Todos Santos is the largest of these towns. It houses the famous Hotel California, where “you can check out any time you like, but you can never leave.” The town exudes

a bohemian charm, making it a haven for artists and writers worldwide. If you yearn for a peaceful retreat to construct your dream home, removed from the urban cacophony yet still conveniently close to tourist hubs, then the Pacific side offers an impeccable choice.

Make your wedding dreams come true at Puerta Cortés, where love and the Sea of Cortez meet in perfect harmony.
LAVISH AFFAIRS Situated on the Sea of Cortés and decked out in pink stucco and orange terra-cotta, Hacienda del Mar Resort Los Cabos makes for a picture-perfect destination wedding. With multiple venues, the resort can accommodate everything from the most intimate of ceremonies to lavish affairs of over 800 guests. Their wedding team handles all the logistics, including launching a dedicated booking webpage. Choose from the resort’s white-sand beach, oceanfront patio or romantic chapel to say, “I do.” For cocktail hour and reception, there’s the Palapa Fiesta lawn, al fresco restaurants, and elegant banquet halls. Their catering team works with fresh, local ingredients and can accommodate special menus for guests with dietary preferences. When “heart” is the name of the resort, it’s no wonder Corazón Cabo Resort & Spa has mastered the art of the Los Cabos destination wedding.

When getting married in a foreign country, it’s necessary to think through logistics and legalities. Here are some basic pointers for couples looking to get married in Mexico. You can opt for a civil ceremony, which is performed by a judge who conducts the wedding in Spanish. It is recognized as a legal union worldwide, but you have to get blood tests, fill out paperwork, and provide four witnesses — all over the age of 18. Alternately, you can arrange a religious ceremony with a Catholic church; but either the bride or groom must be Catholic, and the proceedings must begin at the couple’s home church in the home country. Once all marital requirements have been satisfied there, all the paperwork must be sent to Mexico at least 90 days prior to the date of the event. A religious ceremony is performed by a Catholic priest and can only take place at a Catholic church. The most popular way to get married in Mexico is by holding a symbolic blessing or commitment ceremony. This type of service does not change legal marital status. Most who choose this route get married in a civil ceremony either before or after their Los Cabos event. Because there are no legal or religious requirements, the symbolic ceremony is readily customizable.

Fun Fact Mexican wedding cookies are delicate, crumbly, buttery cookies made with a few simple ingredients such as flour, sugar, butter, ground nuts (often almonds or pecans), and sometimes a hint of vanilla. They’re often rolled in powdered sugar, giving them a snowy appearance. Despite the name, these cookies are not typically served at weddings, but they do make appearances in some celebrations.
