San Diego, Puerto Vallarta, Mazatlan, Cabo San Lucas

San Diego is a huge coastal city on the Pacific Ocean in Southern California. The city is located north of the Mexican border, across from Tijuana. San Diego is an incredible place to visit almost any time of the year due to its mild Mediterranean climate. The city’s landscape is shaped by canyons, flat lands and rolling hills. The Old Town is within walking distance from the port.

Squeezed into the thin space between Banderas Bay and the verdant folds of the Sierra Madre, Puerto Vallarta might no longer be the well-kept secret of the artists, writers and Hollywood stars who first "discovered" it in the 1960s, however, it still retains the essence of the fishing village it once was.

The Old Town, Viejo Vallarta, is a mix of red-tiled buildings, cobbled streets, chic shops and busy open markets. During your visit, don't miss a walk at Gringo Gulch- known as the most romantic spot in the world- a swim at Mismaloya Beach and Conchas Chinasand for extra doses of adrenaline, choose hiking into the rugged canyons and luxuriant jungles of the mountains.

Welcome to the cosmopolitan western-Mexico beach city, which offers great weather, venerable iglesias and an array of beaches to enjoy your swim. Step into one of Mazatlán’s excellent small museums or go treasure hunting in one of the many new small boutiques.To take the pulse of Mazatlán, don’t linger too long in the Zona Dorada (Golden Zone), Mazatlán’s traditional tourist playground. Instead head straight for the city’s cobblestone pueblo viejo (old town), see the Cathedral of Immaculate Conception, Mercado Municipal (Municipal Market), catch a performance at the wonderful refurbished Teatro Ángela Peralta and then a late-night bite at the atmospheric Plazuela Machado, abuzz with art galleries, cafes and restaurants. Nearby is the platform from which the clavadistas (cliff divers) wait at the top of a rocky outcrop for the right wave then plummet 45 feet into the sea. West of the center is Playa Olas Altas, a small beach in a cove. The breezy seafront road, Paseo Olas Altas, strongly evokes 1950s-era Mazatlán, with a couple of faded relic hotels. Don't miss a mouthwatering experience: fresh shrimps, al mojo de ajo (with garlic) or in the shell with a tangy squeeze of lime. You can also visit Acuario Mazatlan, with more than 200 sea species, or go up El Faro, the 2nd - after Gibraltar- tallest Lighthouse in the world and enjoy spectacular views of the Pearl of The Pacific!

Cabo San Lucas is the entertainment hub and the end of the road, along the southern tip of Baja California and is rated as one of Mexico's top 5 tourist destinations. San The Old town, San Jose del Cabo, exudes classic Mexico. In between the two cities, the resort-fringed coast is slathered in sunshine. Combine fine shopping, blue surf and big fish at beaches that shine: Lover's Beach, Playa Medano (the most popular, 3,2 kms long), Chileno and Las Playitas, a series of mini-beaches tucked into weathered coves. Land’s End is by far the most impressive attraction Cabo has to offer. Hop on a tourist boat (panga) and head to El Arco (the Arch), a distinctive rock formation at the southern tip of Cabo San Lucas. It is here that the Pacific Ocean meets the Sea of Cortez.
