Crystal Lagoons at Diamante Cabo San Lucas luxury lagoon resort amenity in Los Cabos Mexico

The Crystal Lagoons® lagoon at Diamante Cabo San Lucas is a 10-acre saltwater lagoon in the heart of the resort, framed by the Pacific dunes. It opened in 2013 and is big enough to sail on. Owners and resort guests can swim, kayak and paddleboard here in calm water, a real advantage on a stretch of Pacific coast where the ocean is too rough for swimming.
