Planning

Historical Context

The rugged granite formations of Land's End were carved by wind and water over millions of years. Historically, the coves and caves around Lover's Beach were used by 16th and 17th-century pirates who hid there waiting to ambush Spanish galleons trading between Asia and Acapulco.

Photography Tips

  • Use a polarizing filter to cut through water glare and enhance the turquoise ocean colors
  • Bring a waterproof case or GoPro for kayaking and snorkeling
  • Keep your camera secure during the boat ride, as it can get bumpy and wet
  • Golden hour (early morning or late afternoon) provides the best lighting on the rock formations

Insider Tips

  • Go before 10 AM to avoid the heaviest crowds and enjoy calmer waters
  • Bring plenty of reef-safe sunscreen as there is no shade on the beach
  • If doing a beach drop-off, take a photo of your boat and captain to easily identify them when they return
  • Sand gets scorching hot by midday, so keep your sandals nearby

Our Partners

  • We are proud to partner with leading travel platforms like Viator to bring you a curated selection of the highest-rated, safest, and most reliable Lover's Beach tours available.

Fun Facts

  • Lover's Beach and Divorce Beach are uniquely situated so that you can stand on Lover's Beach, look at the Sea of Cortez, and then walk less than two minutes across the sand to face the vast Pacific Ocean at Divorce Beach.

Amazing Snorkeling

The snorkeling at Pelican Rock near Lover's Beach was breathtaking. So many tropical fish! The booking process was seamless, though the marina was a bit crowded when we arrived.

Whales and Beaches!

We booked the whale watching safari that included free time at Lover's Beach. Seeing humpback whales breaching was a bucket-list moment. Highly recommend booking early!

Beautiful and Romantic

Taking a water taxi to Lover's Beach was wonderful. The beach itself is stunning. Walking over to see the crashing waves at Divorce Beach was incredible (but definitely don't swim there as the site warns!).

Great Glass Bottom Boat

Perfect for our family with small kids. We booked the glass-bottom boat tour and the kids loved seeing the fish without getting in the water. Very reliable operator.
