Make your reservations now. No trip to Los Cabos is complete without a visit to this Médano Beach standout: It’s home to weekly Fiesta Mexicana celebrations, the increasingly popular canoa (a canoe stuffed with ice and showcasing fresh steaks and seafood for guests to select and have the chefs prepare), and some of the most sensational views of Land’s End and the bay in all of Cabo San Lucas. Grab a seat at the swing bar (yes, they have real swings) to enjoy happy hour cocktails and three-for-two sushi rolls. Or reserve a table for a romantic dinner. Tables are set seaside on the soft sands of Médano Beach, and when the sun goes down, moonlight plays on the Sea of Cortés and the colorful lights that outline anchored boats seem almost close enough to touch. It’s a breathtaking scene, and Baja Cantina Beach does it justice with a delicious array of local seafood dishes and other delicacies, tropical cocktails like margaritas and mojitos, and fine wines from Baja’s Valle de Guadalupe and beyond. Stop by for breakfast, sample afternoon sushi platters, or kick off your espadrilles for the requisite barefoot fine dining, and prepare for one of Cabo’s most memorable sunset dinners. Live music is on tap Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays after 7 p.m., and the restaurant hosts its celebrated Fiesta Mexicana on Wednesday evenings, with specialty menus, margaritas, mariachis, fireworks, and folkloric dances. Valet parking and Wi-Fi are complimentary. Callejón El Pescador, Médano Beach, behind Cabo Villas Beach Resort & Spa, Cabo San Lucas, (624) 143-1111, www.bajacantinabeach club.com.
