The Arch of Cabo San Lucas — Attraction in Baja California Sur

Revised 3 times now. I have visited this area back in 2012, 2015 and 2019.

This was the place my brother in law paid for my wife and I to go on our honeymoon. I need to add, this was a blessing. Since that day I've gone back two more times and can definitely say, I'll go back again. That's been 3 visits in 7 years. Highly recommended it for anyone to visit.

To be honest, Hurricane Odile was rough to The Arch of Cabo back in Oct, 2014. I can remember when the water would go back with low tide, you could see some beach area around the base of The Arch. On one of visits back in 2015, there was no longer a small beach. The beach is gone from the base but in all, it's still a beautiful place to go see yourself.

You need to take a water taxi to get there. Don't pay more then $10 per person. They'll try to get you for more to see if you bite. They will drop you off and pick you up about an hour later if you request it. So you can enjoy Lover's Beach and Divorce Beach. Take some nice pictures and selfies around the rocks and closer to the cliff. Ask the locals resident from that area why they named those beaches like that and they will tell you why it's called like that. Just enjoy this...

The day that we visited, the waves were really strong, therefore we couldn’t visit lovers beach. We were only able to ride up to take pictures. We were able however to swim up to a side beach and did some snorkeling.

If you want to take a boat up to these sights, you can find one on the harbor/dock. Don’t go with the first person who offers you their services. I recommend walking around a bit and asking around for prices. We went with Captain Saul, he was very nice. He stayed with us while we snorkeled and sunbathed on the beach. He also provided food for the fishes. There is a rock that has some coral on it that the fishes we’re eating off of so we mostly stayed above that to see the fishes swim around us.

My Uber driver told me that every boat will charge you a $2 “tax” to take you to see the arc but I thinks that’s a total lie and they pocket that money for themselves.

Anyhow, it was a beautiful experience and I highly recommend it, just don’t get caught up in all the...

The Arch of Cabo San Lucas is absolutely stunning! The rocks look like they’ve been smoothed by the ocean for centuries — truly a unique and beautiful sight.

If you’re up for an adventure and feel physically strong, there’s an amazing hike that takes you all the way to the Arch on foot! It was an unforgettable experience for us.

We started from the Marina, walked toward the Solmar hotel, and kindly asked the security guard to access the beach (note: this beach is not safe for swimming!). From there, we walked along the shore until we reached a section with lots of rocks. We climbed up and over them — it was a bit challenging, but so worth it. Eventually, we reached a small shaded beach where we waited out the peak heat under the cliffs. Then we continued climbing and finally made it to Lovers Beach and The Arch.

If hiking isn’t for you, no worries — you can take a water taxi from the Marina for about $10-15. Either way, you won’t regret visiting this...
