Los Cabos is located at the southern tip of Mexico's Baja California Peninsula, in the state of Baja California Sur. It encompasses the towns of Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo (the municipal seat), as well as the Resort Corridor that lies between the two. The area's economy, like many resort areas in Mexico, was based on fishing but is now geared towards tourism, though sport fishing and golf are the area's main attractions. Also the tourist can enjoy watching whales who come to visit this area to spend the winter in the warm waters.
The municipality has an area of 3,451.51 square kilometres (1,332.64 sq mi).
El Arco, commonly called "the Arch," is a real reference point in Los Cabos and is only reachable by boat, UNESCO recently declared the Arch a World Heritage Site.
Just south of the Arch is Land's End, a rock that juts over the water. This is the last instance of land in Cabo marking the end of Baja California and the beginning of continuous open waters southward.
