Golf in Los Cabos, México
Within a few years, Los Cabos became one of the major golf
destinations in Latin America. Located at the tip of the Baja peninsula, the magnificent terrain is comparable to that found in Arizona and California desert courses. What sets Los Cabos apart is the presence of the Sea of Cortéz, a sparkling water-wonderland of incredible hues reaching as far south as the eye can see. Golfers have an added bonus - eleven months of rain-free play.
Los Cabos has been the site of the PGA Senior Slam Tournament since 1995, attracting golf greats such as Raymond Floyd, Dave Stockman and Hale Irwin. Jack Nicklaus, Robert Trent Jones II and Dye Corporation, Tom Fazio, and M. Schjetnen are among the personalities who designed courses in Los Cabos. Spectacular golf courses, magnificent views of the Sea of Cortez, and the natural beauty of the desert elevated Los Cabos to its place in the international golf community.
