2. The Arch

Towering over the ocean, the majestic El Arco rock formation represents a gateway to the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific Ocean beyond. The rock’s distinct arch-like shape has formed over time with the rough winds and stormy ocean eroding the rock and slowly carving it into the shape it is today. Known as Land’s End, this part of the Baja Peninsula is one of Cabo San Lucas’ top attractions.
