“Tiburon” means “shark” in Español. In fact, I was once in Acapulco and saw “Tiburon Dos” on a movie marquee advertising “Jaws II.” If you’re into sharks, The Lodge at Tiburon, about 15 minutes north of –– and featuring view of –– the Golden Gate Bridge from Marin County, has a special White Tiburon Package during October.
For $1,060 and up, you’ll get two nights of deluxe lodging at this lodge that was recently reinvented to the tune of $6.5 million, plus a day trip 30 miles northwest in the Pacific Ocean to the Farollon Islands to scuba dive in shark cage in this renowned Great White Shark feeding area.
