Los Arcos in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico
Cabo San Lucas is a small town at the Southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula, known for its sandy beaches, world class scuba diving and excellent fishing. At the tip of the Land’s End Peninsula are the world famous arches, a magnificent natural rock formation.
The City of Cabo San Lucas has a large marina and beautiful bay where the sea of Cortez meets the Pacific Ocean. As our ship arrived, we observed a school of dolphins happily jumping besides Dawn Princess. What a heartwarming way to be welcomed.
Once we left the cruise ship, it was easy to find a boat to take us to the arch. We packed our swim suits, camera and a picnic lunch and boarded a water taxi at the city harbor. Within minutes our boat was navigating around the arch, giving us an opportunity to take pictures from all angles before anchoring in a sandy cove. Standing next to the massive granite rock formations was even more overwhelming. What an impressive once in a lifetime experience.

After just returning from a cruise on the “Grand Princess.” Gran-Canaria, June4th, We found very disappointing due to excessive noise thoughout the day & night in our cabin. We understood that this ship had undergone a substantial re-furbishment in “Dry -Dock.” & NOT AT SEA.. VERY DISAPPOINTED PASSENGERS. Babs & Ron

we are leaving on the Sapphire Prin. in 2 weeks. Any advice for on board activities or advice for the 2 stops. We are in the Aloha suite. so we have a great room on the front of the ship, is it windy up front? Anything anyone can tell me would be appreciated
Is your trip 16 April? My wife and I will be on board.
suite sounds great..we did an oceanview..mid ship..I was worried movement on the waters of the Pacific..but this held up nicely..no problems..Have a great cruise!
We would love to go on the cruise also, but Princess cruise has stopped Australians booking with US Travel agents.Then they put up the price about US$ 1000.00 per stateroom for the Saphire Princess 7 day Mexican Riviera Cruise to book from Australia. I am a Platinum circle member. But the Carnival Company cruise line portfolio is looking less attractive every day.
I had thought we had a free trade agreement with the US.
Hello Ken-
Cabo as a port was worth every penny for us…first on the Dawn and second on the Diamond Princess..I hope you will get a chance to experience it one day!…
Hi loved your article about Cabot. We will be there May this year on board the Coral Princess and cant wait.
..Hola Shirley..I am sure you are going to love the Cabo experience..Happy Travels!
Liked Cabo San Lucas the best of the 3 stops on the Mexican Riviera cruise. Not Mazatlan.The rocky formations in Cabo are very dramatic.
Enjoyed your travelogue. Cabo is one of my favorite places and certainly one of the most romantic! Just reading your article I could imagine myself there snorkeling and enjoy the beautiful reefs off Lover’s Beach.
Ashley, thanks for sharing your experience visiting Los Arco. We agree it’s a really awesome site to see in person!
