Mt. Solmar
Get the lay of the land from the peak of Mt. Solmar, which juts out onto Lands End. While many travelers admire this peak from Medano Beach, few opt to make the climb to the top. Accessible from the property surrounding a dog shelter across the street from the old Cabo Naval station, the owner of the shelter leads tours to the top, where hikers can soak in panoramic views across Cabo. After a steep scramble to the top, soak in views of the surrounding landmarks, including Cabo City, Cabo Bay, Lands End, Medano Beach, Divorce Beach, Lovers Beach, the Sea of Cortez, and the Pacific Ocean.
El Arco
Considered the most-photographed location in Cabo, a visit to the stone sea arch known as El Arco, or The Arch, is a must. To get an up-close view of this natural wonder, a short boat trip from Medano Beach or the Cabo Marina is required. Take your time and reach the destination under your own power via kayak, where you’ll have plenty of time to choose your vantage point for the best shot. Water taxis, glass bottom boats, and luxury yachts are also all available to whisk you away to this top Cabo spot in style for a gorgeous view! The lighting is especially amazing at sunset, when the final rays of the day cast an unearthly glow across the rocks. Cabo’s natural beauty is evident from the vantage point at El Arco!
Boating in Cabo
Enjoy the sights of Cabo from a different point of view as you head out onto the water via a boat excursion. Cabo is home to many boat charter companies that offer scenic tours, snorkeling and Scuba expeditions, and dolphin and whale watching excursions, among other options. Whether exploring Cabo’s underwater views or the sights from the dry deck of a luxury yacht, getting out onto Cabo’s renowned waterways is a special way to spend the day. Cabo Sailing Ocean Adventures, Cabo Escape, and Cabo Adventures are a few of the top companies that will get you out onto the water in style. Capture shots of dolphins and whales alongside the boat, see some of Cabo’s most beautiful white sand beaches, enjoy quality dining onboard, and capture a beautiful sunset over the water. It’s all in a day of boating in Cabo, where the views are spectacular!
Sunset Monalisa
To dine with some of the best Cabo views, treat yourself to a luxurious dinner at Sunset Monalisa. This upscale restaurant is situated along the Corridor, with a sweeping dining patio carved into the seaside cliff. You’ll feel as if you’re perched over the water as you indulge in a fine dining experience at Sunset Monalisa. Comfortable seating around firepits, white tablecloth-draped tables, trellises, and twinkling lights create a special ambiance, while at the same time eyes are drawn to views across the water where you can admire views of Lands End and The Arch. Choose among 3-, 5-, or 7-course tasting menus and toast with a glass of high-quality wine as you indulge in the best restaurant with a view in Cabo! The views and ambiance here are especially excellent at sunset.
Medano Beach
What Medano Beach lacks in solitude, it makes up for in views. This best Cabo beach situated in Cabo San Lucas is a top favorite. From your spot in the sand, soak in views across Cabo Bay, Lands End, and El Arco. The beach itself extends for approximately two miles, making it a great place to go for that beachside stroll. And the great thing about Medano Beach is that it doesn’t just offer a postcard perfect view – there are also plenty of activities and amenities right on hand. Participate in water activities, sip a cocktail with a view at one of the bars situated right along the beach, or dine at one of the many waterfront restaurants positioned along the shoreline. Medano Beach is the heart of life on the ocean in Cabo, and all comes with a crystal-clear ocean backdrop!
