Carbo Cortes not to be


The Federal Government has cancelled authorization to construct a tourism Project known as Cabo Cortes because of environmental considerations. The project, up the eastern coast of Baja California just above Los Cabos, would have been massive and included a marina, two golf courses, 30,000 rooms in resort hotels, shopping complexes and more. Opponents argued that Mexico’s northernmost coral reef, turtle habitats and more would be destroyed.
