LA RIBERA
BAJA’S QUIET FRONTIER WITH BOUNDLESS POTENTIAL
Located on the eastern coast of Baja California Sur, just north of San José del Cabo, La Ribera is a coastal sanctuary known for its raw beauty. Now, this once-sleepy Sea of Cortés fishing village is undergoing a remarkable transformation, quietly becoming one of the most coveted new frontiers for eco-conscious development in Los Cabos.
Unlike the more developed Tourist Corridor (or Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo, which bookend it), La Ribera still feels deeply connected to the rhythms of nature. Its beaches are long and often deserted, offering uninterrupted views of the sea and a unique sense of stillness. This is a place where every sunrise over the water is a show, and the only sounds you’ll hear are lapping waves and the call of seabirds.
While developments are coming to La Ribera for the first time, the change is happening at a more subtle, if exciting, pace. Costa Palmas and The Residences at La Ribera have found a way to complement the natural surroundings rather than distract from them.
For those seeking a relatively untouched canvas full of promise, La Ribera offers a uncommon proposition: a community on its way, one that’s designed to maximize the region’s natural and cultural charm.
LA RIBERA COMMUNITIES
Costa Palmas
Costa Palmas is a 1,500-acre master-planned community located along a secluded stretch of the Sea of Cortés in the East Cape region of Baja California Sur. Anchored by the Four Seasons and Aman Resorts, Costa Palmas features a world-class marina, Robert Trent Jones II golf course, and a growing collection of ultra-luxury residences. Designed with barefoot sophistication and privacy in mind, the community includes beachfront villas, marina residences, and hillside homesites—all with access to wellness, dining, and exciting adventures. The setting is ideal for those seeking connection with nature, modern architecture, and resort living with the vibrant city life of Los Cabos only a drive away.
The Residences at La Ribera
Located just outside the gates of Costa Palmas, The Residences at La Ribera features a more low-key, contemporary approach to East Cape living. With direct access to the beach and panoramic views of the Sea of Cortés, this community complements the raw beauty of La Ribera’s 1,300-foot coastline with modern design. The 52 lots here are thoughtfully spaced out, designed for indoor-outdoor living, and ideal for people seeking a peaceful and stunning retreat. While the community is more relaxed, proximity to the Costa Palmas marina, golf, and culinary offerings allows residents to enjoy privacy and nearby exciting experiences—making La Ribera an attractive investment opportunity. And the lazy river, private beach club, and pickleball courts are but a few of the on-site amenities.
