U.S. News Insider Tip: As the terracotta-colored point where the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortez meet, Land's End is always a mesmerizing spectacle. It's particularly impressive at sunset so don't miss taking a boat trip or dinner cruise during this magic hour. – Rosie Bell Located at the end of Cabo San Lucas and sandwiched between Playa del Amor (Lover’s Beach) and Playa del Divorcio (Divorce Beach), these rock formations were created from the rough winds and seas of the southern Baja Peninsula. Sea lions frequent the area (especially along the Los Frailes rock formation), and Land's End remains excellent for couples looking for a romantic spot to see the sunset. Recent travelers said this area is particularly picturesque (making for great photo ops) and the best way to see it is from one of the water taxis or boat tours (some even offer glass-bottom boats so you can check out the sea life as well). Some do note some setbacks to the area, though. For one, there are very few vendors or facilities, so bring your own snacks and a beach umbrella. Travelers especially warn against swimming on the Pacific Ocean side of Land's End, as the surf can get very rough, pulling swimmers away from shore and out toward the ocean. You can't reach Land's End on foot, the best way to get there is via water taxi from the downtown marina. Your hotel can also help you arrange a tour, though it will likely be more expensive than what's offered at the marina where you can haggle.
