Cabo San Lucas Sights

  1. Cabo Falso

    About 5km (3 miles) northwest of town, Cabo San Lucas' historic lighthouse, Faro Viejo, is perched high above Cabo Falso, so named because it was once erroneously thought to be the southernmost point on the Baja peninsula. Surrounded by a spectacular dunescape (unfortunately frequented by ATVs), the lighthouse was in operation from 1895 to 1961, when it was replaced by a candy-striped cousin on a hillside above.

  2. Faro Viejo

    Just outside town, perching high above Cabo Falso (False Cape), this historic lighthouse was built in 1865 and served as the beacon to many a ship, until it was replaced in 1961 by the fancy candy-colored one further up the hill. It's worth taking a stroll around both lighthouses and taking in the beautiful views of sea, sierra and city.
