This was the highlight of our Cabo trip.
Getting there: It’s 44 K from SJDC, take the Santiago exit, after crossing the arroyo take an immediate right, the next interception at the signs take the middle dirt road, at the top of the climb go .2 miles and take another right at the next set of signs, follow the road past the second cattle-guard and take an immediate right, and follow it till you get to the parking area.

The canyon is over an hour away from Cabo but it's worth getting off the beaten path. You can do this at a slow pace and without the cliff jumping and still have an amazing time. This will now be a yearly...
