History
Nearly a century before the pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock, Spanish explorers in Mexico sent word back to their king of an amazing cape (“cabo”) , or promontory, jutting out into the Pacific. It was full of rare flowers, birds, and of even greater interest, pearls. Here, flowering desert, towering mountains and lush foliage came together in the tropical zone of what is now Baja California Sur, 700 miles South of the U.S. border. The most glowing reports centered on a large, open bay called “the Bay of the Palms, “or Bahia de Las Palmas”, on the east side of this cape, well up into the fabled Sea of Cortez. It is here that world famous fishing figure Bobby Van Wormer created Palmas de Cortez, Playa del Sol slightly to the North, and Punta Colorada, 25 miles South.
