About the Author
Born and raised on the Kansas prairie, nothing was more alarming to Emily Hughey Quinn than being surrounded by salt water on three sides. She moved to Los Cabos, Mexico, in 2003 after launching Cabo Living magazine and falling for the man of her dreams, an avid free diver and spearfisherman who not only introduced her to the bliss of freediving, but also kept her freezer full of fish for nearly 4 years. Emily's travel articles on Mexico have appeared in Luxury Golf & Travel, Cabo Living, Mexican Pacific, and Luxury Living magazines.

Don't Buy It
I've been going to Cabo for years and I can tell you there's nothing remarkable about this book. They actually sugest Cabo Wabo is a main attraction. Anyone who's been to Cabo knows there are much better places. The book has almost no pictures, the few maps are useless and the restaurant recomendations are predictable.
Do yourself a favor, save the $10 and ask a Cabo Taxi driver to show you around.
Don't Buy It
Was shock in the lack of detail and inside info on hotels, activities, and restaurants. Heading to Cabo San Lucas in Nov 06 and did not even list our 4 star hotel that has been around for decades with the exception of a one liner about festival night, nor the two pirate ship cruises, glass bottom boats, ultra lite info, baja racing....well you get the idea. If you have not been there before you would assume there is nothing to do but club, whale watch, golf and eat. Good general info for Mexico traveling.
No help at all.
My husband and I purchased this book to help us as we traveled in Cabo. The information was incomplete, inaccurate, and dated. It failed to warn travelers about the constant barrage of time-share vendors (even in the grocery store and before you leave the airport) and omitted practical advice in dealing with them. The prices listed were too low. The "quality" of many of the restaurants listed was inaccurate. We got more practical tips from local literature. This book was a waste of money.
