"They say that in the 16th century, many pirates roamed the Pacific and the Sea of ??Cortez, robbing other ships on the high seas and hiding the looted treasures on the coast of Los Cabos.

Among all these, there was one they called Captain Storm, who was feared by his crew for being extremely cruel and bloody.

This captain was very rich, and one day he decided to hide all his treasure in a cave that was on the seashore, where the two seas meet. That place is in what is currently known as Cabo San Lucas, very close to the Los Cabos Arch , and is known today as the Pirate's Cave .

There they lowered all the jewels, pearls, precious stones, silver and gold, and after doing so, he ordered the cave to be closed and a curse placed on whoever dared to enter.

But as the years passed, Captain Storm died while trying to steal a ship, and the secret of his cave seemed to be forgotten, until one day a woman came to that cave with her son, where she perceived that a voice was calling her from inside.

Although he felt that he should not enter, curiosity won him over, and he groped his way into that dark cave, until he found riches never before imagined inside."
