Get to Know Puerto Los Cabos

Puerto Los Cabos is 2,000-acre master-planned resort community that is set along the coast of the Sea of Cortez. There’s a strong sense of community here, with homeowners often staying for half a year at a time, giving residents a chance to build long-term relationships. In addition to the gated residential neighborhoods, primarily made up of second-home owners, there are also four hotels and resorts, three golf courses designed by Greg Norman and Jack Nicklaus, a marina with 200 slips and space for superyachts, and a botanical and sculpture garden. Though Puerto Los Cabos is only a 20-minute drive away from the airport, the community feels like its own secluded getaway, surrounded by the mountains and the sea. The small fishing village of La Playita is nestled nearby, and a part of the marina is reserved for the traditional panga boats, available to host fishing expeditions in the Gordo Banks.

Living in Los Cabos

Los Cabos, meaning “the capes,” is a distinctive landscape of mountains, desert, sky, and sea, a coastal stretch of land next to where the Pacific Ocean meets the Sea of Cortez. The municipality extends between Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo and includes the 32-kilometer (or about 20-mile) corridor in between, sinuously curving around the coastline of the southernmost tip of Baja California. For a long time, Los Cabos was a sparsely populated area, home to only a few fishing villages. But starting in the 1950s, this picturesque region began to be discovered by Hollywood movie stars as the perfect vacation spot. Gradually, Los Cabos became increasingly popular with the construction of two airports, the Transpeninsular Highway, and modern marinas, allowing Americans to easily head south. In recent years, Los Cabos has begun changing again, evolving away from its party reputation and back to its roots as a luxury holiday destination.
