East Cape Real Estate & Homes for Sale

Stretching along the spectacular Sea of Cortez coastline northeast of San José del Cabo, the East Cape offers one of Baja California Sur’s most distinctive coastal lifestyles, known for pristine beaches, exceptional sport fishing, water sports, wide-open landscapes and a relaxed atmosphere far removed from the busier resort areas of Los Cabos.

The East Cape encompasses a collection of unique towns and communities, including La Ribera, Los Barriles, Buena Vista and Los Frailes, as well as the ultra-luxury Costa Palmas community near La Ribera. Each offers a different experience, from the established expat community and active lifestyle of Los Barriles to the traditional Baja character of La Ribera and the sophisticated resort living found at Costa Palmas.

Dining is part of the East Cape experience as well. Popular destinations include Mozza Baja and Limon at Costa Palmas, along with longtime local favorites throughout Los Barriles and Buena Vista. From sophisticated resort dining to casual beachfront restaurants where fresh seafood and fish tacos are the order of the day, dining on the East Cape reflects the area's relaxed Baja lifestyle.

East Cape real estate offers an increasingly diverse selection of properties, including beachfront homes, ocean-view villas, luxury resort residences, private estates, condos and undeveloped lots. Buyers can choose from established communities or explore newer luxury opportunities around La Ribera and Costa Palmas, where the Four Seasons Resort and Residences and private marina have helped introduce a new level of luxury to the region.

For buyers looking for a full-time residence, vacation home or luxury real estate investment in Baja California Sur, the East Cape offers an exceptional combination of natural beauty, privacy, outdoor adventure and an increasingly sophisticated luxury lifestyle.
