About Lovers Beach
Lovers Beach, or Playa del Amor, is a small beach between granite formations at Land's End. Reach it by water taxi from Medano Beach, glass-bottom boat from the marina, kayak, or paddleboard. Swimming, snorkeling, and marine-life views are the main draws.
The Sea of Cortez side is the side associated with swimming. Do not cross to the Pacific-facing Divorce Beach to enter the water; the Los Cabos Tourism Board warns that those waters are too dangerous for swimming. Arrange return transport and bring water, footwear, and sun protection.
