Welcome to a new year of Los Cabos Magazine! Since 1993, wehave been publishing a variety of guides, magazines, and internet con-tent about Los Cabos and its environs. We have evolved along with thearea and are proud to continue to provide you with the most current,most engaging, and best quality information available.

Even with the construction of new roadsand wider highways, the expansion of the San Jose del Cabo airport,additional shopping choices with the opening of a Wal-Mart SuperCenter and a Sam’s Club, and new housing developments, Los Cabos’warm welcome and kindhearted hospitality has not changed.
Los Cabos Magazine is published quarterly with a variety of depart-ments that carry fascinating reports and coverage on everything fromfishing to fashion, from hotels to hot spots, from restaurants to realestate, from tee-off to tequila. Our articles are written by experts whofind noteworthy, exciting, and captivating aspects of our amazing part ofthe Baja Peninsula.
