Super resort on the beach. Snorkeling and the usual arch sight seeing trip, but wild canyon was the best at thrill seeking activities like bungee jumping, zip line and utv action

First time in Cabo San Lucas.
Beautiful scenery with mountains, desert and amazing beaches. Very friendly people, amazing food and super hotels.
Glad we rented a car as we are able to explore the area, stock up at Walmart and other shops.
Very good service and pricing from Discover Cars through their local partners Keddy/Europcar. I would highly recommend Discover cars over Expedia and other booking sites.

Beaches all over the area with easy access. Many secluded beaches without a sole that may also be easily accessed. Simply bring a cooler with your favorite beverage, some food, a beach umbrella and a few camping chairs then enjoy the sun, water and peace of a quite beach.
