Cabos Travel / Walking for The Cabo’s streetsWalking for The Cabo’s streetsIf you are not a water person, you may want to take a walking tour of town. Park at the marina then walk two blocks north to the town square on Avenue Cabo San Lucas, to begin your tour. This area is filled with park benches and shade trees around a flat stone patio. You could stop here for a quick picnic before you start out. Take some time to look around; the plaza is bordered by the new Museo de las Californias, colorful Mexican store fronts, restaurants such as Mi Casa and Pancho’s Restaurant. Here you will find the closest thing to a traditional Mexican atmosphere in this resort town.
You can choose to do a wide, complete circle and explore the downtown, winding back to the marina and your car, or you may continue on to the Medano Beach, which is also called “hotel row” due to its abundance of hotel and resorts lined next to each other. One experience that you should not miss is a few moments at the umbrella-covered, patio-style tables on Medano Beach. Waiters from The Office restaurant will bring you whatever you would like to drink or eat, while you sit back and soak up the view of this beautiful bay. Related Posts

As you return to the marina, keep your eyes open for the historic Iglesia de San Lucas, which was built in the 1740s. This mission church is between Calle Madero and Zapata streets, on Avenida Cabo San Lucas and is the oldest building in the city. Walking back to the marina, you can see the Cannery piers off to your right, which are the only still functioning remains from the tuna fishing era of the 1930s. Go straight ahead with the marina on your right and the shops and restaurants to your left. There is a lovely boardwalk that passes by the Handicrafts Market then circles the downtown district from the waterside. You will be amazed at how many countries are represented in the harbor below you.
