If, like us, you like doing things that are free we have a bunch of suggestions:
1. Hike over the trail that the locals have carved out of the hills behind Cabo Pulmo. Extreme mountain bike folks do this but lesser mortals should walk. The views are fantastic, you might get a little lost, but not hopelessly so. About 3 hours. If you just go to the summit and backtrack it is only 2 hours.

2. Picnic and swim at La Sirena (the Mermaid) beach. Drive south towards Las Frailes and take the turn left to La Sirena. Enjoy the beach with palapa shades or walk the cliff to Dinosaur Egg Beach, guaranteed to rival your best rock-formation experience.

3. Visit La Ribera and Los Barrilles to the north. This is a great day-trip to see new country and visit the wind-surfing mecca of Los Barrilles. You can take the slower, scenic coastal dirt road or the paved road inland. A great excuse for a drive.

4. Drive south to Miraflores and into the mountains at Boca de la Sierra (Mouth of the Mountains). Local directions are needed to hike into this gorgeous canyon where kids of all ages can leap into cool freshwater pools and explore the winding valley. Rated Five-Star picnicking location.
