Cabo, Mexico - Shipwrecks

About an hour from one of the most crowded and tourist-ridden, cruise ship-partying beaches in the world, is one of the most beautiful, remote, wild and isolated surf beaches in the world.  Cabo, Mexico - Shipwrecks is a great spot to go to really get away from it all.  This is only an hour from San José del Cabo but you feel like you are on a scene from LOST!  Keep in mind that this spot REQUIRES A SOUTH SWELL.  Which typically is April - October.  Check conditions.
