2013.
After four days sailing
from San Juan Del Sur in glassy and smooth seas we reached the destination of
Cabo San Lucas at “Land’s End”, situated on the southern tip of Mexico’s
California peninsular. It was a wonderful sunny day with cloudless skies and
about 28 degrees. Weather wise, this was the best day of the cruise and fitting
for our last port of call before finishing the cruise in San Francisco.
Cabo San Lucas, known
as “Cabo”, has a population of about 70,000 people and is a sea front, tourist
mecca known as the Mexican Riviera. It has a backdrop of rocky hills and
outcrops and beautiful sandy beaches. Cabo is also famous and home for big game
Marlin fishing.
This was a tender port
and the ship was anchored about a kilometre off shore which gave us a
spectacular view of the harbourside, coastline and beaches. We spent most of the day doing the
tourist bit and wandering around the harbouside and shopping precinct and beach
areas. Cabo is everything they say it is, it is a fantastic, colourful and
vibrant clean place with clear crystal waters. A wonderful day all round and a
place not to be missed.
Our next port of call
in two day’s time is San Francisco which sadly ends our fantastic cruise.
