Head to downtown Cabo San Lucas on October 18th to join in Fiesta de Cabo San Lucas, the celebration of the patron saint of Cabo. Festivities include a parade that passes through downtown’s closed streets. There are depictions of the patron, dances, music, and food. Lots of food! Street vendors set up around the area and serve local cuisine as well as international treats. The vendors and performances change every year which make it an enjoyable and unique experience each time. Best of all, there is no admission fee.
The crew of the Cap’n Jake saved the best for last by catching the winning fish moments before the end of the tournament taking the Day 3 Marlin Jackpots with a 341 lbs blue marlin, beating out the second place catch by more than 30 lbs. The Day 3 earnings were almost $80,000.
Bisbee’s East Cape Offshore Tournament began today in Cabo San Lucas. The actual competition starts tomorrow with the first of three days of fishing. Entrants spent today finishing registration and enjoying a nice drink with teammates and rivals alike at the tournament’s welcoming cocktail party which allows participants a final chance at relaxation before competition gets underway.
If you’re in the mood for a little live music and a nice atmosphere, head to downtown Cabo San Lucas and visit Legends Bar. Run by the multi-talented Wendy Tosoff, the bar was opened earlier this year and is already a great place to spend the evening.
In downtown Cabo lies an adorable museum filled with local treasures. The Museo de las Californias has a collection of items pertaining to the Baja Peninsula.
Museo de las Californias
If you’re sight-seeing in Cabo San Lucas, it’ll be difficult to miss Cabo Wabo. This gigantic nightclub has been around for about 20 years and just continues to get more popular. In fact, it’s spawned another location in Lake Tahoe and a line of successful tequila. Who is the genius behind all of this? Rock musician and (sometimes) front man of Val Halen, Sammy Hagar.
Baja Lobster Co. – Cabo San Lucas
Situated so close to the water, it’s no surprise that Baja Lobster Company specializes in seafood (the name sort of gives it away too). This is not your typical seafood restaurant, however. Baja Lobster Co. prides themselves on their sophisticated, creative, and exotic dishes. Your tongue is sure to be pleased.
With a grand prize of over $2 million, you won’t want to miss Bisbee’s annual Black and Blue Tournament. Serious fishermen (and women) look forward to this event not only for the generous prizes but for the bragging rights as well. This event is not for the faint of heart or the light of wallet with tournament fees ranging from $5,000 to $63,000.
