🌴 Episode 27 – Cabo San Lucas

After weeks of remote anchorages, we finally drop the hook in Cabo San Lucas — one of Mexico’s busiest tourist destinations. Once a small fishing village, Cabo has transformed into a world-famous vacation hotspot filled with yachts, pangas, fishing boats, cruise ships, and endless jet skis. While many cruisers avoid the chaos, we decided to embrace it.
In this episode, we:
⚓ Navigate the buzzing marina and check in with the Port Captain
🛒 Restock provisions at a real grocery store for the first time in a month
🎄 Celebrate Christmas onboard with champagne, cooking, and nightly fireworks
🐢 Help a baby sea turtle and learn about Cabo’s role as a vital nesting ground
🍹 Kick back on deck, soaking in the warm weather and surreal cruiser lifestyle

Places we mentioned in the video:
Captain’s Office: Coordinates 022° 53.178' N / 109° 54.904' WAddress: Calle Mariano Matamoros, Downtown, Ildefonso Green, 23470 Cabo San Lucas, B.C.S.
