The word "Cabo" used to bring visions of a small remote village known for its unparalleled sports fishing, beautiful beaches along the Sea of Cortez, the famous arch "El Arco" and for a smattering of high-end resorts designed as playgrounds for the rich and famous. But when the area opened up to the crowds, it exploded in a boom of development. In the late 1950's 10,000 acres of coastline could be bought for $15,000 and now 11 oceanfront residential properties sold in luxury developments for an average price of $12.6 million. Today sprinkled across the coastline are the construction cranes that work feverishly to build the next sensational master-planned development, each advertising the highest possible trend in luxury destinations; complete with the ultimate in spa decadence, cuisine prepared by world renown chefs, extensive wine bars, infinity multi-tiered pools and golf laden bliss. How did this happen and in such a short time frame? This book is a collection of information on Cabo's past through to today's mega developments; a glimpse of those who played pivotal roles in its progress and a look at the area from then until now. Enjoy the journey of Cabo, including its resorts, restaurants, bars and the area itself as I personally have for the past 38 years!
