The Sea of Cortez coast between San José del Cabo and La Paz is a favored hideaway for both anglers and adventurers. The area includes a fast-growing gringo community at Los Barriles and a beloved settlement at Cabo Pulmo. Hotels and small lodges are scattered along the coast. Most offer packages that include meals and activities, a good idea since they're usually isolated. The East Cape is renowned for its rich fishing grounds, varied diving, and excellent windsurfing. The area makes a good day trip or a nice place to overnight, especially if you're into water sports.
