With the widespread development of Los Cabos, land prices on the Sea of Cortez have skyrocketed. Condos, resorts and multi-million dollar homes are replacing what used to be an area typified by beach bungalows, cabanas and small, casual hotels right on the beach. One example of the Cabo lifestyle that will be no more is the RV campsite that sits right on the beach in the Costa Azul section of San Jose del Cabo. Started in the late 70's, the campsite was popular with folks who came down to Cabo for the winter months. Others decided to stay in Cabo and set-up their homes at the campsite. The property was recently sold, and the last campsite renters are tearing down their make-shift homes to make way for the construction of a new luxury resort.
