Los Cabos Activities By Water - Part 2

Last week, we brought you a variety of water activities in Los Cabos that you can enjoy when you visit our sunny paradise! This week we have even more options for you, from sport fishing to windsurfing and whale watching. Our Los Cabos property management company is here to help you plan the perfect itinerary for your vacation, from a place to stay to where to eat to the best activities in the area!

Sport Fishing

Sport fishing in the Los Cabos area is unparalleled in the world with an abundance of marlin of the blue, black and striped variety, Sailfish, Dorado (also known as mahi mahi or dolphin fish), Tuna, Wahoo, Roosterfish and endless varieties of bottom fish and surf fish. Los Cabos is undoubtedly one of the world’s best all-round locations for sport fishing. So even if you are not an avid fisherman, you should try your hand at catching a big one while visiting.

Stand Up Paddle Surfing

Stand-Up Paddling is the fastest growing ocean sport. A non-impact sport that will positively affect you mentally, physically and emotionally. No experience necessary. Stand-Up Paddle Surfing is easier than surfing! Learn how to surf the way the kings did it-you’ll be surprised how great of a workout it is.

Sunset Tours

View the spectacular setting and the famous Arch at Land´s End while enjoying a gorgeous Los Cabos sunset. Sunset cruises are approximately 2 hours long and include open bar and snacks on the boat. Cruises vary and can include everything from sightseeing, entertainment, food and more. Reserve an adventure with a group of your friends or make new friends while enjoying the beauty of the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific Ocean.

Surfing

Summer and fall are the best times to catch waves in Cabo, although there can be waves all throughout the year. Not just for grownups, kids love surfing too and it gives them a smile every time. With close guidance by professional instructors you will be up and riding your first wave in no time! We invite you to spend some time in the water with an experienced surfer and get to know the feeling of the wave.

Whale Watching

Whale watching is Los Cabos’ most popular activity! Each year, Cabo San Lucas is visited by the blue, gray, humpback, and sperm whales. You will also have a chance to view various dolphins including common, Pacific white sided and bottlenose. This exciting variety and abundance makes Los Cabos one of the best places on earth to view these beautiful animals.

Wind Surfing

Beyond the calm waters of Los Barriles, about an hour from Cabo on the Pacific Ocean side, the wind and waves pick up each afternoon with amazing predictability. Free windsurfing clinics are offered every morning and instructors are available daily for group and private instruction. Equipment rental is usually available.

Yacht Charters

If you are looking for space, comfort, style & a hassle-free day on the water and you prefer a motored yacht, LIFESTYLE has you covered. We work with a variety of vessels to offer just what you need. Charters are available from 3 hours up to 5 days. Just grab your family and friends for a good time on the water!

We always recommend booking activities at least 72 hours in advance to ensure availability. When booking with Lifestyle Villas, you can rest assured that the activity you choose is safe and fun. Contact us today at 1-888-655-9589 to start working on your itinerary.

Experience Mexican Cuisine in Los Cabos

When you travel to a new country, it's all about the experience. Aside from the sightseeing and relaxing on the beach, you'll want to experience the traditional Mexican cuisine while you're on vacation in Los Cabos. Let's take a little deeper look into Mexican food around the country and in Los Cabos in particular.

Mexican Cuisine 

Mexican food is one of the most versatile and varied cuisines in the world. It has a history of incorporating fresh fruits and vegetables with local wild game. White corn, beans, squash, tomatoes and chiles are staple ingredients in the foundation of authentic Mexican cuisine. Lovers of Mexican food enjoy its flavorful kick. Fresh aromatic ingredients and colorful presentation make for added enjoyment.

Dishes Across the Region

Each region in Mexico has its own take on Mexican cuisine. While meat dishes are more popular in the north, vegetable and chicken dishes are common in the south. Communities along the sea, like Los Cabos, enjoy a lot of seafood dishes. Fish like grouper, red snapper, mojarra and snook, as well as lobster, crab and oysters are abundant. Common dishes, such as tacos and tamales, will taste different all over the country, as each region gives the meal a special touch.

Fine Dining in Los Cabos

Whether under the stars with a full view of one of the most beautiful bays in the world or right on the beach, dining in Los Cabos is one of the most memorable experiences you will encounter. There are hundreds of dining options, with all styles of food, vistas and venues. However, if you're looking for authentic Mexican cuisine, Lifestyle Villas has the perfect recommendations for you!

Restaurant Edith's - Edith's is a vivid combination of the cuisine of Baja California with a Guerrero flair, featuring a regional fusion of steaks and seafood with local ingredients. The restaurant also offers a privileged view of Medano Beach and the world famous Arch of Cabo San Lucas.

The Office - The Office on the beach is, as always, the place for breakfast, lunch or dinner Cabo-style. Here you can enjoy classical toes-in-the-sand elegance year-round. The 16-ounce Office Margaritas are almost as famous as its traditional Mexican kitchen and fresh local fish and seafood. 

La Golondrina - Dine under the stars at Cabo's premier restaurant featuring fresh local seafood, steaks and authentic Mexican cuisine. La Golondrina Restaurant is famous for huge portioning of perfectly grilled fresh lobster, decadent preparations of fresh grilled fish, jumbo prawns and fresh sea scallops.

Grito de Dolores: Mexico's Independence

Since the late 19th century, Mexico has celebrated its independence on September 16. The celebration includes parades, festivals, feasts, parties, dancing, bullfights, rodeos and more! Many non-Mexicans, particularly in the United States, mistake Cinco de Mayo for a celebration of Mexican independence. Lifestyle Villas is here to set the record straight and tell you a little more about Grito de Dolores, Mexico's Independence Day!

Mexican War of Independence

September 16, 1810 marked the beginning of Mexico's struggle for independence. Napoleon's invasion of Spain from 1808 to 1813 heightened the revolutionary fervor in Mexico and other Spanish colonies. On September 16, 1810, Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla, a respected Catholic priest issued a passionate cry known as the "Grito de Dolores" (Cry of Dolores), that amounted to the declaration of war against the colonial government. It called for the end of Spanish rule in Mexico, the redistribution of land and racial equality. Known as the Mexican War of Independence, the conflict continued until 1821, when the Treaty of Córdoba established Mexico as an independent constitutional monarchy under Augustín de Iturbide. Just 18 months later, Antonio López de Santa Anna and Guadalupe Victoria ousted the emperor and established the first Mexican Republic.

Mexican Independence Day Traditions

Today, the celebrations of Mexican independence begin on the night of September 15 and carries over to the next day.

1. On September 15 around 11:00 PM, the President of Mexico rings the bell of the National Palace in Mexico City. He then shouts "a Grito Mexicano" based upon the "Grito de Dolores" with the names of the important heroes of the Mexican War of Independence. It ends with " ¡Viva México!" The bell is then rung again and the Flag of Mexico is waved, followed by the singing of the "Himno Nacional Mexicano" (the national anthem).

2. On September 16, Mexico's Independence Day, the national military parade takes place in Mexico City. Similar celebrations occur in cities and towns all over Mexico and in Mexican embassies and consulates worldwide.

3. In the 19th century, it became common practice for Mexican presidents in their final year in office to re-enact the Grito in the city of Dolores Hidalgo, rather than in the National Palace.

4. September 16 is marked by parades, patriotic programs, band competitions and special programs on the national and local media outlets.
