It is bordered by the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortez, the world’s youngest and most biologically diverse sea. The area is classified as a tropical thorn forest, with vast tracts of desert terrain tumbling into the two seas.

Cabo San Lucas is quickly becoming a high-end holiday destination with a number of resorts and timeshare clubs appearing along the coast between San Lucas and San José del Cabo.
