Cabo Weekend
Description:
Cabo San Lucas is a great weekend getaway from the west coast. It is almost always sunny, it only rains a few inches per year. Cabo is somewhat over developed and it can be an unpleasant situation if you don't plan correctly. I suggest making car, activity and dinner reservations ahead of time, often the good things to do are sold out if you leave it to your arrival.
The party scene can get out of hand, so it is best to navigate to quieter venues. Traveling north of the main tourist is very nice, I suggest even do you fishing north of town along the sea of cortez.

Day 1 - Cabo San Lucas, San Jose del Cabo
We were lucky to arrive early in the day, we checked into our resort. There are many other wonderful resorts to choose from. We decided to take it easy and enjoy the beach. We listed 2 of the nicest beaches below. We took a water taxi over to the beaches. Go to Playa el Medano so you can enjoy a beachside meal at "the Office".
We also listed the outback tour which takes you into the desert, this was very fun, try it if you have extra time.
Try the sunset cruise on the Pez Gato, it is great.
Try the sancho Panza for dinner, even though here it is listed as nightlife, they have good meals.
We also enjoyed the restuarant at Ventanas so we suggest breakfast or lunch here.

Day 2 - Cabo San Lucas
Cabo is famous for it's fishing so we started out early and went fishing. If you don't like fishing we also enjoyed a Rancho tour to La Paz. It is a very mexican feeling town, worth a visit.
After fishing we stop at the La Perla for lunch and then took in a spa to wash away the fish smell. We also suggest the bull fight which is also fun if you are not a spa person.
To further wind down after the spa enjoy a tequila and a cigar at El Agave. We choose Mariscos Mocambo for dinner because they will cook up your fish if you caught any in the morning.
We barely had any energy left but we stopped into Mambo Cafe for some music

Day 3 - Cabo San Lucas
Today we rented a car and drove 1 hour north along the pacific to Todos Santos. The drive is wonderful and the town is very cute with many ex-pats running art galleries. There a bunch of fine restaurants but we were told to eat at the taco stand, on the main street. They have great fish tacos. There are many galleries which are always opening and closing, we listed a few here. There are many nice boutiques as well. We headed back for dinner so we wouldn't have to drive in the dark, it is a 2 lane road and would be very scary at nite. We decided to mix it up and sushi, mexico style.
