Tiger Woods Opens Second Golf Course in Cabo San Lucas

The first golf course design from legendary player Tiger Woods was El Cardonal in Cabo San Lucas, an old-school, So-Cal parkland style course that opened at Diamante in 2014.  A few weeks ago, the 14-time major champion returned to the private 1,500 acre Pacific Coast luxury community, this time for the unveiling of his new par 3, dubbed Oasis Short Course.

Woods and former baseball star Roger Clemens were both on hand for the inaugural round at Oasis, along with a select group of Diamante members, local VIPs, and top Mexican golfers.

Distances at the truncated 12-hole layout range from 41 to 143 yards, and thus are perfect for young golfers, as well as recreational players looking for a more relaxed experience than that offered by some of the region’s more difficult courses; including The Dunes, the Davis Love III designed links course that put Diamante on the map in 2009.

“I learned how to play on a short par 3 course in Long Beach, California,” Woods said while explaining his rationale for the design at Oasis. “When I was a kid, a 100-yard hole for me at Heartwell Golf Course was a driver and a 7-iron, so I can relate to the challenges faced by younger players.”

Oasis is the 15th golf course to open in Los Cabos. Three of these, or a whopping 20 percent, are currently ranked among the 100 best in the world by Golf Digest:  The Dunes Course; Tom Fazio’s gorgeous layout at Querencia, and Jack Nicklaus’ Ocean Course at Cabo del Sol, which the “Golden Bear” once referred to as “the best golf property I’ve ever seen.”

No wonder the region was recently declared the Latin American and Caribbean Golf Destination of the Year for 2017 by the IAGTO (the International Association of Golf Tour Operators).

Incredibly, even more world-class courses are in the works for Baja California Sur’s premier getaway destination. New layouts from major champions Greg Norman and Fred Couples are currently in development, and Woods and Diamante are in the planning stages for a third course at the exclusive coastal property.

Like The Dunes and El Cardonal, the Oasis Short Course is open only to Diamante members and their guests.

Los Cabos Fishing Report – October 16, 2016

October 16, 2016 76_johnolson130tuna

As more crowds of visiting anglers continue to arrive in progressively increasing numbers the weather continues to cooperate, no late season storms are forecast at this time to head our direction, ocean conditions are great, light winds, minimal swells,  with clear sunny skies. Daytime temperatures are still quite warm, though the early mornings are now starting to have a slight chill. Water temperatures are still warm, should start to cool off in the next couple of weeks.

The main bite now has been centered from the Gordo Banks to Iman, San Luis, Desteladera and Vinorama. This is where anglers are targeting the yellowfin tuna, sizes have ranged from small football five pound fish to as large as 300 lb. Average yellowfin being landed have been in the 10 to 40 lb. class. Best bait for this action has been strips of squid, though some of the larger hook ups have been while trolling baits such as chihuil, bolito or skipjack. Best chance at hooking into a cow sized tuna has been from around the Gordo Banks, though numbers of these big yellowfin are very limited, the one yellowfin tuna we heard about that was over 300 lb. was caught by local anglers in the afternoon. Charters are finding more numbers of tuna on the northern grounds, also more chance at catching a variety of species from these grounds. Daily catches have ranged from a couple of fish to over a dozen, some days fish were biting early, some days late, still a very strong current to deal with.

Only an occasional wahoo being landed, up to 45 lb., striking trolled baits and Rapalas, though these elusive fish are definitely in the area, as water temperature cools some we expect they will become more active. Same deal for dorado, scattered action on mostly small sized fish, some people are killing dorado of very small size, does not really make sense, should be released to mature and reproduce. Off the bottom more triggerfish than anything else, but also a mix of cabrilla, various pargo species, rainbow runner, pompano, amberjack and others, though sporadic action off the bottom and at times not easy with the fast drift.

Billfish action has seen a mix of striped marlin, black marlin and sailfish, though no big numbers, trolling larger baitfish around the offshore high spots has produced black marlin hook ups, fish up to 380 lb. were reported, stories of larger fish lost.

No inshore action to be reported, surf anglers are catching a few jack crevalle and roosterfish in the marina channel area, also we saw the season’s first sierra.

The combined panga fleets launching out of La Playita, Puerto Los Cabos Marina sent out approximately 117 charters for the week, with anglers reporting a fish count of: 2 black marlin, 6 striped marlin, 7 sailfish, 565 yellowfin tuna, 58 dorado, 12 wahoo, 28 yellow snapper, 15 leopard grouper, 1 sierra, 4 barred pargo, 18 bonito, 1 pompano, 23 huachinango, 3 dogtooth snapper, 8 amberjack, 21 rainbow runner and 225 triggerfish.

Good fishing, Eric

Los Cabos Fishing Report – September 25, 2016

September 25, 2016 79_jasensmithgroup

Although we are now officially into the first week of the Fall season we are feeling very tropical weather in the Los Cabos area. This is always the time of year when weather patterns can be very unpredictable, as well as very humid. The landscape is now lush green from significant rainfall the past month. The most recent Tropical Storm Paine stayed far off to the west, paralleling the Pacific coast of Baja before it dissipated, there was no significant impact on land. Presently we are having some isolated local thunderstorms threaten, mainly in the afternoon, though this has not amounted to much of anything. We are also closely monitoring a new low pressure system developing off to the west, which is forecast to slowly gain strength, most likely become Tropical Storm Roslyn and move in the direction of Southern Baja, precise track is not yet determined.

On Monday the red flag was posted early in the morning, closing the Port, presumably as a precaution, even though the day turned out to be calm, with no rain or high swells at all. Most scheduled charters were forced to cancel this day, only after the Port reopened at about 10:00 a.m. did a handful of boats go out. The remainder of the week sportfishing fleets operated normally, seas were calm most days, late in the week we had some wind pick up later in the day, threatening tropical clouds, but did not rain on the fishing grounds. Ocean swells increased, but were moderate and overall conditions were very favorable considering what time of year it is. Most of the fishing action now is centered on the grounds from the Gordo Banks to San Luis.

The bait now be used consisted of caballito, slabs of squid and various skipjack, bolito and chihuil, which were being found on the fishing grounds themselves. The yellowfin tuna bite definitely improved, anglers found various grades of tuna, ranging from football sized, many fish in the 20 to 50 lb. class, a handful to over 100 lb. and even at least a couple of super cows of over 300 lb. that were caught by local anglers fishing on the Gordo Banks later in the day after the crowds lightened up. Drift fishing with strips and chunks of various baits was the technique now being used. Action came in spurts, sometimes early, other times late, lots of pressure on these areas now, since this is where the only real bite is now being found. Individual charters accounted for a couple of tuna per morning, up to ten or more.

Yellowfin tuna was definitely the most common species being targeted with success now, only a scattering of bottomfish, a few amberjack, grouper, rainbow runner, triggerfish and various snapper/pargo being encountered, this action is on the same grounds as are the tuna. Wahoo went on a limited bite earlier in the week on the grounds north of Punta Gorda, though these fish have not been very active overall. Dorado were found scattered throughout the same areas, though recently it has been rare to see a dorado over ten pounds.

There were reports of good billfish action off of the East Cape, lots of blue marlin. Off of our area the action was limited for a mix of striped, blue, black marlin and a few sailfish. Lots of natural food fish on the high spots now, so there is more than enough food for the largest of gamefish to feed on, makes it tough to get them to bite. Several stories of black marlin being hooked on lighter leaders that were targeting the more leader shy yellowfin tuna and resulted eventually in losing the marlin due to sawed off leaders.

The combined panga fleets launching out of La Playita, Puerto Los Cabos Marina sent out approximately 74 charters for the week, with anglers reporting a fish count of: 2 sailfish, 3 striped marlin, 1 blue marlin, 235 yellowfin tuna, 58 dorado, 7 wahoo, 7 yellow snapper, 1 gulf grouper, 9 leopard grouper, 12 bonito, 12 huachinango, 85 triggerfish, 2 surgeonfish, 5 amberjack and 12 rainbow runner.

Good fishing, Eric

Consider How Much Money You Have to Spend

The overwhelming majority of people who are looking for second homes or vacation properties in the Los Cabos region have limited budgets. That is, they cannot simply buy whichever villa, condominium, or apartment they desire. If you don’t have unlimited funds, you need to determine what your budget is before you start considering various realtors. This is because some Cabo real estate specialists only deal with certain types of properties, like high value villas.

Think About How Often You Plan to Use Your House

Before you start looking at vacation homes that are currently on the market in the Los Cabos region, you should spend some time considering how frequently you intend to use your second house. This could impact what type of residence you ultimately end up purchasing. If, for instance, you plan to rent it out for several months of the year, you may want to look at an abode that has more bedrooms that you would personally use so it will appeal to more potential renters. Los Cabos Vacation Rentals, Inc. can also help you produce income from your investment when you are not using it.

Don’t Submit in an Offer Before You’ve Seen The Property In-Person

Because San Jose del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas are not close to many prospective homebuyers’ primary residences, it can be tempting to put an offer in on a vacation house without actually visiting it first. After all, online galleries and video tours can provide a lot of information. This is not, however, a great plan. Before you make a major purchase like this, you ought to make a point of seeing the house you’re thinking about in-person. Contact the experts at Los Cabos Real Estate if you need any information on Los Cabos Properties For Sale and you can also contact Los Cabos Vacation Rentals for any assistance with your travel plans.

These are detailed below. Once you’ve responded to these, either on paper or in your head, you will be much more prepared to work with a Cabo vacation home agent.

How Much of the Year Am I Going to Spend on the Condo, Home or Villa?

Some people plan to move to their Los Cabos vacation homes full-time, while other intend to just spend one or two months out of the year in them. Your answer to this question may dictate not only what kind of residence you invest in, but where it is located. If, for instance, you are hoping to rent your house out to tourists when you are not in it, you need to make sure it is in a spot that is popular among travelers. If, though, you and your family will be the only ones in your new second home, you can select a location that you personally love without worrying about whether or not other people will like it.

Either way our sister company, Los Cabos Vacation Rentals, Inc, based in California, can help you rent out your property while you are not using it to help cover yearly expenses.

How Much Money Do I Have to Invest?

Your Los Cabos Real Estate representative won’t truly be able to provide you with assistance until you know how much money you have to spend on your Cabo Vacation Home. While deals can be found in nearly any price range, you need to know what your maximum budget is before you start taking tours of any properties. This way, you and your agent won’t waste your time looking at holiday houses you simply cannot afford to purchase.

What Amenities Am I Unwilling to Compromise On?

Every prospective homebuyer has certain things that he or she simply won’t give-up. Before you start working with a Los Cabos Real Estate agent, you need to know what your personal must-haves are. You might even want to jot these down so you aren’t tempted to buy a home that doesn’t feature one of them. Popular must haves in Cabo are pools, wet bars, golf course and ocean views and Beach Club access.
