A is for Adventure, but A is also for Art. In Los Cabos, you’re never far from either. The tip of Mexico’s Baja California peninsula is perhaps better known for ever-expanding rows of glitzy hotels, million-dollar-prize marlin fishing and fiestas that run so late—or early—that revellers can choose ceviche made with the morning’s catch as their hangover helper. But keep to the sidelines and you’ll find a different kind of A-team—from an adrenaline rush on the glittering sea to an art crush amid a cobblestone townscape.
