About this activity

As the sun begins to set, watch the Pacific and Cabo coastline come alive with brilliant golden and sunset colors. Cruise past the iconic Arch of Cabo San Lucas with a drink in hand, enjoying an open bar with beer, tequila, mezcal, spirits, sodas and juices, plus mini baguettes and fresh fruit salad.
