Jack Nicklaus rules in Los Cabos, Mexico, where you can find a number of championship golf courses bearing his design signature: Palmilla, El Dorado, Cabo Del Sol\'s Ocean Course. But there are Fazio and Trent Jones Jr. golf courses in here as well, most attached to world class resorts that make for a can\'t-miss golf vacation. Our correspondent gives you a destination guide for this perfect piece of Mexico.
Golf in Los Cabos, Mexico, on the southern tip of the Baja Peninsula, has really grown in recent years.
Consider the growth curve of Palmilla Golf Club. It was the first true resort course in the area, and the original 18 of this 27-hole Jack Nicklaus design debuted 15 years ago, in 1992.
Eight years later, Golf Digest declared that Los Cabos was already among the world\'s fifteen finest golf destinations.
Since that Digest list appeared, several other world-class golf courses have sprouted in this mesmerizing landscape, an unforgettable confluence of desert, mountain and sea. Only rarely is the weather less than perfection, with the Sea of Cortez sparkling to the east, the Sierra de Laguna Mountains looming to the west, and the mighty Pacific Ocean meeting the sea at peninsula\'s end, due south.
Jack Nicklaus rules over Los Cabos Nicklaus is the main man in Los Cabos. Besides the 27 holes at Palmilla, he produced stellar El Dorado, and Cabo Del Sol\'s Ocean Course, undoubtedly the premium golf experience in the Baja.
In addition to this august Nicklaus trio, Tom Weiskopf, Robert Trent Jones Jr. and Tom Fazio have all contributed fine courses as well, with additional facilities debuting annually.
Nicklaus\'Ocean Course at Cabo Del Sol is a technicolor carnival, featuring bright blue sky, cerulean sea and shimmering green grass.
Oceanside holes get the attention and the glamour shots in the travel magazines. But the reason the course has been a fixture among the world\'s top 100 since it debuted in \'94 goes beyond the back-to-back beachside par-3s on the outward journey. It even goes beyond the ending ocean side trio, holes that the designer himself has referred to as \"the greatest three finishing holes in the world.\" For great Los Cabos golf packages, click here.
