El Arco - The Arch - Cabo San Lucas

The distinctive landmark of Cabo San Lucas is the rugged 200-foot taffy-colored granite rock formation El Arco (The Arch) that erupts from the sea at the tip of the Mexico's Baja California Peninsula. A visit to Land's End, El Arco de Cabo San Lucas, is undoubtedly one of the most popular things to do in Cabo.

Getting there is easy. Just hail a boat taxi (some with glass bottoms) from the Cabo San Lucas Marina. You can view the iconic golden arches from your boat or ask the captain to drop you off and arrange a pick-up time. En route you will pass lazy sea lions basking on the rocks, and Playa del Amour (Lover's Beach) at the base of the rock formations is a perfect spot for a leisurely stroll.

It is called Land's End because, as the crow flies, if you followed a line south from here, you would not touch land again until you reached the South Pole.

La Independencia De Mexico

Historical and cultural mural by Xafrerate Sotomayer in the municipal hall in San Jose del Cabo, Baja California Sur

In the early nineteenth century, Mexico, with a little influence from the US and France, began talking about a revolt against Spain. Father Miguel Hidalgo from Dolores, Mexico, was a leader of one of the rallying groups. People fought for eleven years before they finally won their freedom. Mexican Independence Day on September 16 is a major celebration in Mexico and is bigger than Cinco de Mayo, which celebrates the unlikely Mexican victory over the French at the Battle of Puebla in 1862.

The actual day of September 16 is similar to July Fourth in the US. There are rodeos, parades, bullfights, horseback rider performances and grand feasts. Mexican flags are everywhere and the main plaza in Mexico City is packed. Every year, local mayors and politicians re-enact the famous Grito de Dolores, THE most famous speech by Father Miguel Hidalgo. The crowd roars, cheers and chants, and fireworks light up the sky. And if the food can be made red, white and green (like the Mexican Flag) all the better!

Mexicans that live abroad bring their celebrations with them. In US cities with large Mexican populations, such as Houston or Los Angeles, expatriate Mexicans will have parties and celebrations - you'll probably need a reservation to eat at any popular Mexican restaurant that day!
