cabo san lucas FAQ

Is Cabo San Lucas nicer than Cancun?
Neither Cabo San Lucas nor Cancun is definitively 'nicer'; they offer different experiences. Cabo San Lucas provides a drier, desert-meets-ocean landscape with a more relaxed, chic luxury vibe, known for dramatic landscapes of desert meeting the Pacific Ocean, focusing on luxury resorts, fine dining, and a slower pace. Your choice depends on whether you prefer golden beaches and dramatic cliffs or white-sand beaches and vibrant turquoise water, and your ideal pace.
What is so special about Cabo San Lucas?
Cabo San Lucas is special for its unique desert-meets-sea landscape, the famous El Arco arch where the Pacific Ocean meets the Sea of Cortez, and its vibrant atmosphere blending luxury resorts, lively nightlife, and deep-sea fishing. The area offers a range of activities from swimmable beaches and whale watching to world-class golf, fine dining, and unique farm-to-table experiences. The iconic rock formation at Land's End, where the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortez converge, is a must-see attraction accessible by boat tours. The dramatic landscape combines arid desert terrain with pristine beaches and turquoise waters, creating a visually stunning environment.
Is Cabo San Lucas in Mexico or the USA?
Cabo San Lucas is located in Mexico, on the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula. It is part of the Los Cabos municipality and the Mexican state of Baja California Sur.
Do I need a US passport to go to Cabo San Lucas?
Yes, you need a valid U.S. passport book to travel to Cabo San Lucas from the United States, as you will be flying internationally and will go through immigration. Your passport must be valid for the duration of your trip, though it is strongly recommended that it be valid for at least six months beyond your planned departure date. A U.S. passport book is required for international air travel to Mexico; a passport card is not sufficient. Ensure your passport is valid and check its expiration date to avoid issues with entry into Mexico. You will also need to complete the Forma Migratoria Múltiple (FMM), or tourist card, which is usually provided by the airline or at the airport.
What are the best marine activities in Cabo San Lucas?
Cabo San Lucas offers superb snorkeling and scuba diving, especially around the Sea of Cortez, one of the world's richest bodies of water for marine life. Whale watching tours are also a popular activity, offering the chance to see magnificent humpback whales in their natural habitat. Boat tours to El Arco are a fantastic way to experience the confluence of the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortez, often including opportunities for spotting marine wildlife.
