In the past few years, Cabo, Mexico has become my go-to getaway. It’s such a short flight from Los Angeles and always has incredible weather. The other weekend, my best friend, Jessica Lowndes, called me asking if I wanted to Cabo. My answer was obviously yes! We booked a flight for the next morning and had four days filled with sunshine and laughter.
We basically did the same itinerary as our Cabo girls trip last summer. You can read all my recs in this Cabo vacation post. But here are a few more highlights…
food & drinks
We stayed at The Cape again. It’s my favorite Cabo San Lucas boutique hotel. We mostly ate at the hotel. I could probably eat their fish tacos every day (we ask to have them grilled instead of fried). Their sushi is also incredible. And their skinny margaritas are the best in Mexico.
best lighting
Since it was my third time staying at The Cape, I got my lighting down for photos. The three best spots to take pictures are: 1) The balcony of your room. The way the light bounces off the ocean acts like a photo filter! 2) The bathrooms downstairs at the beach. I know it sounds weird to take photos in a bathroom but the lighting is just perfect and I love a good tile wall. 3) The lobby. They have all different color chairs and couches. And the light bounces beautifully on your face.
Whether you’re staying at The Cape or not, I recommend taking photos in the morning. The lighting is much better (midday is too hot and harsh). Plus, I prefer to get my photos out of the way so I an enjoy the rest of my day.
Activities
At the hotel, our favorite activities were yoga on the roof and beachside massages (I highly recommend getting one at sunset!). Off the property, it was all about boats. It’s not too expensive to rent a boat in Cabo. You can rent a small one to sight-see snorkel by The Office. They’re nothing fancy but I’m in the water most of the time so I don’t mind. We also did a sunset cruise with our friends, which was basically a fun dance party on the water. My favorite, though, is definitely the smaller private boats since it gives you the freedom to do and see whatever you want around The Arch of Cabo San Lucas (I kept asking to drive by the cute sleeping sea lion!).
What We Wore
I hope you enjoyed taking a peek into our Cabo girls trip!

Fabulous photos, and you must have been thrilled with the holiday! We had a vacation in Monaco last year. Our vacation was made simply unforgettable with service https://www.azur-limousines.com/en/.

I think this summer did not go according to plan, but we still managed to have time to relax in Greece. We did yoga, went sailing with the best captain https://notos-sailing.com/, visited the most picturesque places, got the maximum rest

I am Mount Kilimanjaro guide and Tanzania safari expert, i looking forward for working together
Climbing Mount Kilimanjaro
A free-standing, snow-covered dormant volcano, majestic Kilimanjaro is the highest mountain in Africa. Located in northeast Tanzania, it can be seen from far into Kenya and Amboseli National Park.
75,000 mountaineering enthusiasts climb Kilimanjaro every year so it is not the most untouched mountain, nor is it the most arduous. However, it is certainly a test of one’s endurance, with altitude sickness the main reason for hikers not getting to the summit of Kilimanjaro. Although it has become a very popular challenge and the experience slightly crowded with other climbers, we still highly recommend it for anyone with an interest in mountaineering.
Mt Kilimanjaro is located in North Tanzania next to some of the top safari parks in Africa, so while making an ascent it would be a shame not visit the northern parks and experience the Serengeti, Ngorongoro or Tarangire.
There are hundreds of operators that work on Mount Kilimanjaro but over the years we have decided to work with only 2 companies based on their safety track record, guides and cost. Climbing Kilimanjaro is potentially very dangerous so it’s important to be with the right company!
The website offers a comprehensive list of businesses sorted by state and provides all the necessary details one would need such as addresses, phone numbers, and even website links. Nice information with great photos. Thank you for sharing such a powerful information.
