This natural rock arch carved by wind and waves marks the point where the Sea of Cortez meets the Pacific Ocean, and it's the single most photographed landmark in Los Cabos.
Know before you go
- Glass-bottom boats and water taxis from the marina run out to the arch constantly and are the easiest way to see it up close.
- Go in the morning for calmer water and better light for photos.
- Ask your boat captain to swing by both sides — the ocean side often has sea lions basking on the rocks.
