on 3/6/2006 Taco loco is the second best place to eat in Cabo for you buck, it is located next to The Giggling Marlin on the same side of the main street. There is another place, but it's way off the beaten path. It's back next to the Bimbo Factory.

on 11/22/2005 You can drink 2 for 1 all day and all night, win cash for bikini contest, plus drink free all night long at 5 of Cabo's hot spots. If you want free beer or water activities all of our activities are sponsored by Dos Mares water activities and Tecate beer. Jose Cuervo is one of our main sponsors, along with MTV Spring Break '06.

on 11/22/2005 The sushi bar there is called Nixons's, which is a sister bar to the one in Los Angeles. Stay at Peublo bonito Rose and party all night long! Don't let the cab drivers rip you off.

on 11/22/2005 Take a kayak over to Lover's Beach for the afternoon. Crossing the busy waterway and trying to time your beach landing between the waves adds excitement. Once you've made it, you can walk across to see the Pacific Ocean's much more powerful waves!
