Cabo San Lucas is a small city at the southern tip of the state of Baja California Sur, Mexico. Since the construction of the Transpeninsular Highway Cabo San Lucas has become a high-end holiday destination. Cabo San Lucas� economy, like many resort areas in Mexico, at one time was based on fishing but is now geared towards tourism, though sport fishing continues to be one of the area's main attractions.
Cabo San Lucas is a bustling hub for sport fishermen, cruise ships, handicraft vendors, water sport aficionados and nightlife seekers. Cabo is considered to be the second-fastest growing resort destination in all of Mexico and particularly busy with visitors during the winter high season, November to February. With some of the best all-around sport fishing in the world and every water sport imaginable, Cabo is the ultimate destination for travelers looking for outdoor adventure�
Nowadays, the small fishing village has become a bustling tourist attraction. Cabo San Lucas has increased its numbers and now boasts a population of almost 25,000. The majority of people who call this place home make their living from the tourist industry and most of them are recent arrivals seeking work. Many small shops and boutiques line the streets with souvenirs and handcrafted Cabo clothing. Tour guides are ready to show off the spectacular coastline (and the underwater attractios, too). Affordable boating adventures and tours await those ready to take to the waves and are a sign that Cabo is no longer an exclusive yacht club just for the upper class sports fishermen.
