3. Venture the sea!

Take advantage of your visit to Los Cabos sailing the World’s Natural Aquarium to find the largest mammals on Earth, whales and their incredible spectacle jumping out of the water, and explore the natural wonders and underwater realm of Sea of Cortez.

Land’s End Arch

Right at the southernmost part of Baja California Peninsula you will find this incredible eroded rock formation, Cabo’s most iconic landmark: The Arch. Water taxis make the journey to this spectacular attraction, and you can choose a glass bottom panga to observe marine life on your way. Don’t miss the natural sculptures like the Pelican Rock and Neptune’s Finger.

 Whale watching

Out of the 14 species of whales in the world, six inhabit Mexican waters. Amazing, right? The humpback whale and the gray whale usually visit the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortez in the breeding season during December through March – Mid April, and it’s very common to spot them jumping out of the water along with their calves. But don’t be surprised if you stumble upon blue whales, sperm whales and even killer whales swimming in the Sea of ​​Cortez!

Some tours even include a hydrophone so you can hear the mystical whale songs!

Underwater Sand Falls

Beneath the Playa del Amor, right next to The Arch and just a few miles from Grand Solmar Land’s End, you will find the Sand Falls. Expert divers can’t afford to miss this natural phenomenon —more than 30 meters deep — caused by the friction between the North American and Pacific tectonic plates and different temperatures of the Sea of ​​Cortez and the Pacific Ocean.

Cabo Pulmo

The Cabo Pulmo reef is one of the marine sites with the most biodiversity in the world. Diving or snorkeling in this protected area of ​​more than 17,300 acres is an unmissable adventure, which keeps its fascinating beauty thanks to the community that inhabits this fishing village, who decided to restrict their commercial activity in 1995, to allow the reef to restore itself from excessive fishing held in the past.

 4. Immerse in ancient traditions!

The healing, renewing properties of water have been acknowledged and practiced by humanity since ancient times, and for Mesoamerican cultures, the use of sweat lodges called temazcal —dating back 1,200 years— represented more than a cleansing ritual; it was intimately linked to their cosmogony and their relationship with the divine. Temazcals are transformation, health and well-being rituals, a perfect way to start a year anew.

The benefits this spiritual, wellness ritual include respiratory tract and digestive system cleansing, strengthens the nervous system, acts as an aid on bone, muscle and gynecological-obstetric conditions, helps to reach deep relaxation, prevents insomnia, depression and anxiety, tones the skin, promotes optimal blood circulation, alleviates liver disorders and promotes awareness of deep emotions, among many others.

 

If you would like to book this ancient ritual during your next visit to Los Cabos, please write to Playa Grande Spa at: spacollection@solmar.com

5. Meaningful travel: Give back!

You can make your travel be filled with purpose to enrich your experience, and a great idea to add meaning to your visit to Los Cabos is to lend a hand to the Solmar Foundation.

 Founded in 2011 under the mission to provide better opportunities to the Los Cabos community in terms of health, care, education, training, work and nutrition, Solmar Foundation has been actively helping many associations in the region such as Red Autismo, a civil association that help children with autism; Amigos de los Niños that brings quality health care in Los Cabos to children up to the age of 18 who have no other means of receiving it; to name a few. 

 You can join these initiatives and schedule visits to the communities during your stay; bring clothes, toys and hygiene essentials with you; and donate $10 USD upon check-out, which will be charged to your suite bill.

 Follow them on Facebook.
