Cabo San Lucas. As we pulled into Cabo and dropped anchor, the view was stunning. Since they tender you into town from the ship, the tender process can be time consuming. They hand out tickets with numbers on them and you have to wait until your number is called before you can go down to deck one and get on the tender boat. If you want to catch one of the first tenders, get to the deck four Centrum early and get your ticket. We did not and didn’t get into town until 1:30pm. We only had a few hours to check out the town before we had to get back to the ship. When you first get off of the tenders and walk up the dock into town, you are swarmed by people pushing boat rides and other merchandise. I found that the water taxis were the best way to go. They can get you anywhere in town in a few minutes for about $3 US per person. They will also take you out to the arch and to lover’s beach for the same price. We saved a lot of money by not purchasing the shore excursions from the ship. The water taxis take you to the same attractions for a lot less money. The only problem we found with the water taxis was that if they take you to the main beach, the water can be rough and it is hard to get on or off these small boats. My wife had a difficult time getting onto one from the main beach, but they are so convenient for getting around town. Don’t pay more than $3 US per person; they will all accept that price. At night there was a casual dinner and a show.
