Explore Lover's Beach, a stunningly beautiful beach in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico
Lover’s Beach, also known as Playa del Amor, is the jewel of Mexico's Los Cabos and Cabo San Lucas and is one of the most beautiful beaches in the world.
Bathed in waters from the Pacific and the Gulf of California, its clear waters and diversity in animal life allows visitors to enjoy an underwater adventure: a natural aquarium with innumerable species of tropical fish of different shades and sizes; sea lions and manta rays that swim in front of your eyes at the rhythm of nature.

It is said that the name "Lover's Beach" is due to the fact that two seas are united: the Gulf of California and the Pacific Ocean. Others attribute it to the history of two lovers from the 18th Century: a Japanese sailor that was rescued by an inhabitant of the region. The two fell in love and spent many moments together on the beach. The girl’s father opposed the relationship, and in an attack of anger, wounded the Japanese sailor to the point of death. The girl, in her desperation of the moment, decides to take her life and be united to the next world with her lover. The witness, of course, is this beach that would be marked as "Lover’s Beach".

Whether or not this story is true, the beach, approximately 164 ft. in length, sneaks up to the surface to bathe itself with sun and lend its white sand to visitors that want to get to know one of the only beaches in the world that unites two seas.
Lover’s Beach can only be accessed by sea. The trip can be enjoyed in kayak, in water taxi, or in larger boats that take groups of people on established schedules, facilitating the return of the visitors.

It is a place without shops, stores and other purchase options, so if you plan to spend some time there, we recommended that you take water, fruit, and snacks of your choice. Do also remember to take sunblock cream and diving equipment (visor, snorkel, and fins) if you plan to enjoy the underwater wonders.
