This dive site, Lands End, is a renowned spot along the Cabo San Lucas coastline, famous for its breathtaking rock formations that extend both above and below the water's surface. As the name suggests, it's the last in a series of popular dive sites in the area. Although close to shore, it is exclusively accessible by boat for diving due to the surrounding topography and regulations. Divers can expect a relatively easy dive, navigating around these impressive structures.
The marine life at Lands End is characteristic of a vibrant sub-tropical environment. Divers are often greeted by a variety of fish species, including snapper, angelfish, grunts, parrotfish, and grouper. The site also offers opportunities to encounter larger pelagic species such as possible eagle and manta rays, as well as several species of turtles and stingrays.
The best time to visit Lands End for optimal conditions typically aligns with the dry season in Cabo San Lucas, from November to May, offering clearer waters and more stable weather. This site is particularly well-suited for both snorkelers and freedivers due to its relatively shallow average depth and abundant marine life near the surface, alongside the visually stunning underwater landscapes.
