The "Edge of the World": It marks the southernmost tip of the Baja Peninsula; historically, sailors viewed it as the last landmass before Antarctica. Wildlife Hub: The Arch is a sanctuary for diverse marine life. Visitors can see a permanent colony of sea lions basking on the rocks and, from December through March, observe migrating humpback whales breaching nearby. Rich History: The area was once a hideout for 16th-century pirates who used the jagged rocks to ambush passing galleons.
