Los Cabos is one of the most diverse places in the world. It is located in Baja California Sur, Mexico<\/strong>, in a desert ecosystem surrounded by the Pacific Ocean <\/strong>and the Sea of Cortez<\/strong>. We traveled there for 7 days, and this is what we found: the highest concentration of exclusive accommodations<\/strong> in the world, internationally renowned organic cuisine, natural wonders, and a wide selection of adrenaline-pumping experiences.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Local and organic gastronomy<\/h2>\n

Here the dishes are filled with fresh seafood, organic gastronomy and, of course, traditional Mexican cuisine. A booming culinary offer that has attracted the attention of renowned international chefs such as Richard Sandoval or Enrique Olvera.
We had the opportunity to get to know it first hand at Casa Tamarindos<\/strong>. Following their “From Farm to Table”<\/strong> philosophy, we gathered ingredients from their garden and then cooked them in a private Mexican cooking class. An unforgettable moment. Beyond a simple culinary experience.<\/p>\n

Another gastronomic highlight of the trip was dinner at El Farall\u00f3n Restaurant (Pedregal Resort). To open our mouths, we were served a tasting of three types of champagne marinated with different varieties of seafood and mole.<\/p>\n

Not only are many of the local restaurants in high demand for fresh seasonal produce, but luxury accommodations consider the harvest to be one of the area’s best attractions. The variety of food produced in the region includes all kinds of fruits, vegetables, cheese, seafood and even its famous brandies.<\/p>\n

The Aquarium of the World<\/h2>\n

The Sea of Cortez was considered “The Aquarium of the World” by Jacques Cousteau and is known to be the ideal place for snorkeling and scuba diving<\/strong>. We wanted to discover it on a full-day excursion by private yacht to the uninhabited island of Espiritu Santo<\/strong>, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The gift of nature appeared as we passed by: islets inhabited by sea lions<\/strong> that you can dive with (if it is not mating season because they can be aggressive), sea caverns<\/strong> full of mystery, damselfish and butterfly<\/strong> fish, and most impressive, a huge school of dolphins<\/strong> that played and accompanied us for most of the trip.<\/p>\n
