Cabo San Lucas Golf
Cabo San Lucas's popularity boom over the last two decades has also resulted in an explosion in golf course construction in the area. The end result has made Cabo San Lucas an excellent destination for golfers who want to play world class courses that also offer unforgettable views of the Sea of Cortes and the Pacific Ocean. There are eight golf courses in the Cabo San Lucas area and every one has been designed by one of the foremost golf architects in the world. Jack Nicklaus has designed three Cabo San Lucas golf courses and other courses in the area have been designed by the likes of Tom Fazio and Robert Trent Jones Jr. All of these courses are extremely popular, so making tee times in advance is highly recommended. Some courses also offer discounts on greens fees for booking tee times in advance.
Note: The “high season” for Cabo San Lucas golf typically runs from mid October to mid June
