VIP fishing in Cabo has never been better! Cabo is one of the world’s greatest fishing destinations. Most of the average travelers who visit Cabo today are not aware of the incredible history and connection to Hollywood. Fishing has been the main reason to trek down to the Arch at Land\u2019s End and the southernmost tip of the Baja Peninsula.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Today, VIP fishing<\/a> aboard a yacht including all of the luxurious amenities is both affordable and comfortable. Importantly, fishing is still the number one of the best things to do in Cabo.<\/p>\n

Cabo is one of the few places in the world where a first-time angler might catch a massive Marlin on the first trip out! Beginning in June during a normal year, or when the water temperature has risen, blue and black marlin begin to make their presence known in a big way. The normal tackle for striped marlin is in the 30-pound class. The waters in and around Los Cabos produce marlin in record numbers. Record weight will range from a small marlin at 300 pounds up to some at 1,200 pounds!<\/p>\n

In other words, Cabo San Lucas is considered to be \u201cthe place for deep sea sportfishing.\u201d Cabo Yacht Life offers an array of fishing yachts<\/a> in Cabo.

Cabo Fishing Overview<\/strong><\/h4>\n

Some 40 years ago, actors John Wayne, Errol Flynn, Bing Crosby, and even Dwight D. Eisenhower would fish for marlin in the Cabo area. The coast had all the ingredients of a perfect celebrity hideaway. John Wayne would actually travel down the Baja Peninsula piloting his own Cessna plane. He\u2019d land on local dirt airstrips making the rugged trek to the area.<\/p>\n

Today, the 380 slip, ultra-luxurious Cabo San Lucas Marina is an incredible, state-of-the-art facility. However, in the 1950\u2019s, Cabo had nothing more than a tuna factory. Nearby, a small village standing between the desert and miles of white-sand beaches. Yet, the waters were always teeming with some of the best sport fish in the world.<\/p>\n

As a result, Americans and Canadians were lured down. The first travelers would make an adventuresome journey south from La Paz\u2019s commercial airport. Later, the masses followed in greater numbers after the opening of the transpeninsular highway in 1974.<\/p>\n

The highway allows people to cross the U.S. border from San Diego and into Tijuana then drive 1,000 miles south. The Los Cabos International Airport was expanded in 1986. The international airport provided access to the resort area with direct flights from the U.S. and Canada. As a result, the hotel, timeshare, and villa rental<\/a> businesses have been booming, exponentially.<\/p>\n
