Mexico beaches come in all shapes and sizes. Two of the most famous areas are Cabo San Lucas and Acapulco.

| Fashion Collection 5, night journey of discovery aboard the elegant Volendam. From San Diego, head south to several destinations in the Pacific coast of the U.S. and Mexico. Enjoy sun and sand in Cabo San Lucas and Acapulco, behold and experience the rainforests of Costa Rica, traverse the Panama Canal and enter the Caribbean.

Travel Agency You're probably already familiar with Acapulco if you ever watched the Wild World of Sports on ABC. Acapulco was exhibited frequently as the location of those sketchy cliff diving competitions. You know, the one where crazy men jumped a few hundred feet into a pool of water between rocks. Fortunately, you don't have to cliff dive to enjoy Acapulco.

“Cabo San Lucas grew very quickly, without enough thought put into land use and conservation, ” Van Wormer said.

Cheap Hotel Acapulco is located below and on mountains jutting on off of a beautiful bay. The place is visually impressive and the beaches are very nice. There is, however, one potential downside to Acapulco. The town is tailored to tourist in a big way. You aren't going to find any authentic Mexican culture unless you head into the hills. Instead, you are going to be bombarded by people selling things and generally catering to the all mighty tourist dollar. Some people love Acapulco, but there are better places in Mexico in my opinion.

lovers on a budget should check out a Cabo San Lucas studio rental, perfect for a couple or single person. Save money by cooking meals in your Cabo San Lucas lodging kitchen, and then spend it on the famous nightlife just minutes from your Cabo vacation rental front door!

Flight Booking Cabo San Lucas

Cruisers and pangas out of the East Cape often head to an area known as Los Frailes, a point located above the Gordo Banks (another popular fishing spot near San Jose del Cabo) and below Cabo Pulmo. Los Frailes is about 36 miles from Cabo San Lucas, so it represents a long run for boats out of Cabo. This productive area is easily within the reach of the East Cape charter fleets, however.

Travel Agent How times change. Cabo San Lucas used to be a sleepy beach town on the tip of Baja California. The airport used to consists of a single, large cabana. For better or worse, those days are gone.

hour drive separates Cabo San Lucas and the East Cape, there’s a world of difference between these two Baja destinations. For the angler that also enjoys other diversions, Cabo supplies it all. In addition to some of the finest offshore and inshore fishing to be found anywhere, Cabo also boasts numerous luxury hotels, a wide range of restaurants, shopping, championship golf courses and more. Once a sleepy fishing town and cannery inhabited by only a few hundred people, Cabo has been transformed into a bustling resort that attracts visitors from every continent. This amazing growth has been due to the construction of Los Cabos Airport in nearby San Jose del Cabo, as well as a constant flow of investment and promotional dollars from Mexico’s tourism agency “Fonatur” and the private sector.

Hotel Chicago Cabo San Lucas is quickly becoming the place to be among Mexican beach resorts. Rock stars, Sammy Hagar, own bars and sing songs about the place. The marinas have some impressive and expensive boats. Previously bare mountains are now covered by large and impressive homes. Heck, there are even traffic jams!

Online Booking Still, there is a reason all this is going on. Cabo San Lucas is simply a top notch place to go on a vacation. The sun beams all day and there are activities galore. You can go deep see fishing, kayaking, surfing or just loaf on the beach. Cafes and bars populate the beaches, but you don't get the hectic feeling found in Acapulco. For nightlife, Cabo San Lucas can't be beat with legendary bars and quality restaurants.

Travel Health Insurance If you're "forced" to go to Mexico on vacation, either Acapulco or Cabo San Lucas is a good spot. All and all, I prefer Cabo, but to each their own.
