For picturesque beaches, abundant sportfishing, and a wide range of diversions. Lying between the Pacific
Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, the Baja Peninsula is home to the resort towns of Cabo San Lucas and San José
del Cabo — collectively known as Los Cabos. For a lively atmosphere with lots of swimming, water sports, and familiar
shops and restaurants, set your sights on Cabo San Lucas. And if a quieter scene with art galleries to explore and
inventive cuisine to sample piques your interest, then San José del Cabo is the destination for you.

Comfortable weather calls for beach time, and the
southern Baja Peninsula has a sunny draw for
every taste. For loads of activity, claim a spot on
Cabo San Lucas’
Médano Beach
, rife with
bars, restaurants, vendors, and water sports
operators. And in San José del Cabo, lay out and
watch surfers ride the waves at Costa Azul Beach.
If you’re looking to view marine life, don a snorkel
mask and swim out at San José del Cabo’s Chileno
Beach, where you can see moray eels, rays, and
fish in vivid hues.
40 – 52
Before Cabo came into its own as a coveted
vacation destination, it was already famed for its
deep-sea fishing
. From wahoo to the roosterfish,
there are ideal months to catch each one. October
is a prime time to troll the marlin-rich waters —
two of the largest deep-sea fishing tournaments
are held in Cabo at this time each year. Get in on
the action with a Pisces Sportfishing charter from
Cabo San Lucas or an outing with Gordo Banks
Pangas from La Playita, a fishing village minutes
from San José del Cabo.
1 – 13
Hundreds of whales migrate to the waters off Los
Cabos every autumn, making for excellent whale-
watching late December through late March. Head
out in search of the majestic creatures—especially
humpbacks and gray whales — in the company
of a biologist or naturalist with Whale Watch Cabo,
which offers small-size tours departing from
Cabo San Lucas with safari-style commentary. For
nature of the flora variety, check out the amazing
array of succulents at
Wirikuta Desert
Botanical Gardens
in San José del Cabo. On
Thursday evenings, stop by the Gallery District
and check out the San José del Cabo Art Walk.
27 – 39
During the hottest months of the year, indoor
offerings entice. And a vacation in Los Cabos
wouldn’t be complete without a little shopping:
Brand-name retail therapy can be found in abun-
dance in Cabo San Lucas, from high-end labels
at Luxury Avenue to 100-plus stores in a three-
story, air-conditioned complex at Puerto Paraíso.
When it comes to one-of-a-kind finds, San José
del Cabo reigns. Start in
Plaza Mijares
and
browse your way through stores and art galleries.
