As club members and resort golfers at Quivira Golf Club can attest, the cart path that leads from the sixth green to the seventh tee skirts a jaw-dropping stretch of sheer granite cliffs before arriving at an equally unforgettable site—the region’s original lighthouse.

Say Cheese!  Photo opportunities for social media were the top reason one-fifth of millennials gave for choosing a vacation spot in a recent survey. In addition, two-thirds of those polled by JetCost said they wouldn't travel to a destination without photogenic appeal.

As a destination, Cabo’s cup runneth over when it comes to natural beauty. Its jewel in the crown is Quivira Los Cabos, a Land’s End hideaway surrounded by a mountain ridge, its rolling desert foothills dropping to the deep blue sea. Here are a few of our favorite Instagram hotspots within the resort community.

One of the hallmarks of a world-class vacation destination is a wide-ranging menu of age-appropriate, family-friendly activities. This is especially true in the summer months, when the kids are off from school. When it comes to fun for little (and not-so-little) family members, Los Cabos always delivers and never disappoints.

Whether you’ve won the lottery, just sold your Silicon Valley start-up, or have been working hard for the past four decades, everyone dreams about where they’d like to spend their golden years. Here are our top four reasons to consider retiring to Los Cabos, a Land’s End hideaway at the tip of the Baja Peninsula.

What began two years ago as a friendly get-together for foodies who care about well-sourced ingredients and proper meal preparation has blossomed into a very popular Cooking Class, one cherished by Quivira owners as part of Q Life’s wellness and healthy living pillar. Resort guests are welcome to join the class based on availability.

For starters, it’s a world apart, its treasures hidden underwater and unseen except to aquatic explorers.

Situated on the East Cape 60 miles from San Jose del Cabo, Cabo Pulmo National Park is a protected marine sanctuary in the Sea of Cortez. It offers extraordinary snorkeling and scuba diving opportunities. The sleepy settlements in the vicinity of the park also attract sport fishermen, surfers, campers, and those who simply want to get away from it all and savor “the old Cabo.”

For the fourth consecutive year, the celebrated Abierto de Tenis Los Cabos (Cabo Cup of Tennis) will be held at Cabo Del Mar in Cabo San Lucas from July 29 – August 3. This professional men's tennis; tournament, played on outdoor hard courts in a beautiful stadium in the heart of Cabo San Lucas, is part of the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) World Tour 250 series. With a total financial commitment of nearly $1,000,000 USD, the tournament ranks as the highest in its category in the Americas Region.

The Margarita is currently the most famous and arguably the most in-demand cocktail in the world. In Los Cabos, it’s the No. 1 choice of imbibers, no close second.

It’s a simple drink with only three ingredients, but there are many variations. The basic Margarita calls for 2 ounces of tequila, 1 ounce of orange liqueur, and one ounce of fresh lime juice. Salt on the rim of the glass is optional. The drink is generally served shaken with ice or blended with ice (frozen). A proper Margarita is traditionally served in the eponymous Margarita glass, a stepped-diameter variant of a champagne coupe. But like the drink itself, the glassware varies.

Cabo’s Best Blue Flag Beaches

Twelve Los Cabos beaches have received Blue Flag recognition, a very distinguished honor. That’s in addition to the seven Cabo beaches already deemed worthy of this distinction.

The iconic Blue Flag is one of the world’s most recognized eco-certifications awarded to beaches. In order to qualify for the Blue Flag, a series of stringent environmental, educational, safety and accessibility criteria must be met and maintained. When you see a Blue Flag flying in Los Cabos, you know the beach is clean and accessible; has excellent water quality; meets high safety standards; and is working to protect local shorelines and ecosystems.

It’s back! San Jose del Cabo’s Thursday night Art Walk is once again a fixture on the seasonal calendar. The Art Walk offers visitors a perfect opportunity to explore the historic colonial city’s vibrant arts district. Hidden behind the landmark church off Plaza Mijares (the main square) is an eclectic array of art galleries, artisan shops and charming restaurants set along cobblestone lanes that open their doors to one and all. More than a dozen Gallery District Association members invite strollers to meet artists, view new exhibits and enjoy a complimentary glass of wine or tequila in a welcoming atmosphere.
