Lands End & El Arco (Cabo)

Visiting Land’s End in Los Cabos

Land’s End is located on the very tip of Baja Peninsula in Mexico. It is, quite literally, the end of the land, punctuated by granite rock formations that have been smoothed by sea and air. El Arco is the most famous of these rocks and is the subject of infinite Instagram photos and desktop backgrounds.

What to see at Land’s End

El Arco

You can only catch a glimpse of El Arco from a boat. If Land’s End is secluded, then El Arco is the secret within the secret. Water taxis and tours to the beaches at Land’s End will usually offer to show the famous arc as a point of pride. Snap those photos while you can!

Lover’s Beach and Divorce Beach

Lover’s Beach and Divorce Beach are two sides of the same sandy area. Let’s ignore the implications of what that means for lovers to Land’s End for now. Lover’s Beach faces the Sea of Cortez while Divorce Beach faces the Pacific Ocean. These beaches tend to fill up with visitors by 10am so grab a great sunbathing spot early.

Sea Lion Reserve

The sunny area is also popular with another kind of visitor: sea lions. We don’t recommend getting too close. You can observe them from afar by boat or off the shore as they tend not to make landfall on the beach.

Getting to Land’s End

Visitors to Los Cabos have a good chance of seeing Land’s End from their hotel rooms and can definitely catch a glimpse from the beach. The best way to experience Land’s End properly is to visit by boat. You can book a water taxi from the Marina or Medano Beach and head over to either Lover’s Beach or Divorce Beach (it’s the same beach). Be sure to book your return trip with the driver and arrange the pick up time in advance.
