One of the main reasons why people plan a Cabo, Mexico vacation is to party, of course! Haven’t you heard that Cabo is one of the top spring break destinations for college students? It is also a fun spot for you to head with your mates in your young 20s if you are in the mood to get out of the stresses of daily life and escape your work responsibilities.
For those who come to Cabo to have a few drinks—or a few too many drinks—there are tons of bars right in the heart of the town for you to enjoy. There are dozens of bars, pubs, tiki bars, and clubs that offer great drink specials, breathtaking views over the nearby water, good vibes, and friendly service that will make it hard for you to want to leave at the end of the night.
First, we recommend going to The Office on the Beach for a midday cocktails or ice-cold beer during the heat of the afternoon. Although it might seem a bit early for a drink, it is vacation after all, so you can have a 3 pm drink while listening to upbeat music, chatting to other tourists, and speaking with the friendly staff, who are more than happy to provide recommendations on their favorite cocktails.
Another fantastic spot that we love going to soak in the pristine view and get a tan in the process is the Taboo Beach Club. If you are here to party in Cabo, this is the place to start. Taboo features a fantastic reputation, tons of mixed drinks, a party atmosphere, and tasty food that pairs well with any type of sugar-laden cocktail, ice-cold IPA, or non-alcoholic beer.
Still in the mood to party in the sunshine? We don’t blame you. Check out Mango Deck for amazing Mexican food, like tacos, burritos, nachos, and taquitos, that pair perfectly with some of their specialty margaritas or local beers. We love sitting on the sun deck, cooling off from the heat, and ordering shrimp cocktails to split with the table.
If you have been partying all day long, it might be time to carry the party into the nighttime. The first place on our list of must-go spots is The Nowhere Bar. This unique and exciting bar is well known in the town for upbeat live music, a Tex-Mex atmosphere, and tasty drinks that are continuously flowing.
Finally, end the night at The Rooftop at the Cape. We love this laid-back lounge bar that offers an upscale and high-end vibe that is prime for sitting with your friends, sipping on cocktails, having good conversations, and lounging around the fire pit on a cooler evening. Head here any time after 5 pm to grab a spot with a view and enjoy the tasty appetizers.
A second reason that a vacation to Cabo is a must for your upcoming spring or summer getaway is due to the plethora of surf spots. Even if you're a newbie when it comes to getting up on the board, there are tons of hidden spots, great breaks, and fantastic beaches that we love for trying to conquer the waves and stand up to rip through a barrel!
One of the best spots is Todos Santos, a great choice for experienced surfers and those who know what they're doing. The fast barrels, low tide, and exposed reef make for a challenging and fun morning out on the water. If you want to surf with locals and show them you really know what you are doing, then head to Pescadero. This off-grid spot has tons of crashing waves for perfect surfing.
Another fantastic choice for a fun morning out on the water right after sunrise is Cerritos. We recommend starting here if you are a beginner surfer who needs to get more confident in the water or wants to go with a professional company to learn the ins and outs of the gear, technique, and safety protocol. This 45-minute drive from Cabo is great for a full day out on the water.
Finally, Migrino offers a 180-degree swell that is constantly busy all year, featuring lines of surfers from these memes to the winter months. This is one of the most nearby locations to the heart of Cabo, offering easy proximity for all tourists and locals alike.
Do you need a little bit of caffeine early in the morning to wake up, prepare for the day, and get excited about all that Cabo has to offer? We don’t blame you. We are the same way! Having a cup of coffee first thing in the morning is the best way to get a bit of energy, prepare for your day, and plan your itinerary for your upcoming vacation.
Your first stop should be Cafe Al Cabo in San Jose del Cabo, which is in the heart of the town. This famous coffee shop is one of the most popular for tourists, featuring an expansive menu that offers classics like avocado toast, crepes, bagel sandwiches, chilaquiles, and quesadillas. The combination of Mexican and American food here offers something for everyone.
We recommend the Desayuno al Cabo plate, featuring hotcakes, eggs with your choice of veggies and cheese, and toasted, flaky bread for a savory and sweet breakfast combo.
Another must-visit spot in Cabo is the Baja Beans Coffee Roasters, featuring tasty coffee, different varieties, and strong espresso-laden drinks that are the ideal jump start you need for your day. And you can rest assured this coffee is locally sourced and comes right from La Baja, so you can try authentic Mexican coffee that tastes fresh, newly roasted, and spicy!
Order one of their breakfast specialties with a tasty coffee drink, like the towering plate of pancakes, buttery pastries, flaky croissants, Spanish tortilla, cheese quiche, super-sweet carrot cake, or healthy bran muffin. Pair any one of these items with a coffee and sit outside in their wonderful garden, overlooking the lush green trees and bright blue water in the distance.
Last but not least, Chameleon Cafe is one of the best cafes for ambiance, food, and tasty coffee drinks. Located in Corazon, this marketplace and coffee joint not only makes fresh food for a healthy breakfast or lunch but provides prepared foods to-go, so you can pack a lunch to bring to the beach.
For dining in, we highly recommend ordering one of their specialty iced drinks, like an iced chai latte or classic chocolate, paired with one of their smoothies for healthy start to the day, like the Berry Paradise with mixed berries, orange juice and Greek yogurt, or order one of their bakery items, like the blueberry muffin, pan au chocolat, or chocolate chip cookie for a sweet treat!
Suppose you want to purchase souvenirs to bring back home, buy clothes to wear for date night, or you just forgot your swimsuit and need to buy a new one. In that case, Cabo is a prime shopping destination that offers the best of the best in terms of labels, unique items, cool clothing, and great home decor.
We recommend checking out Luxury Avenue Los Cabos Shopping Mall if you want to wander around the air-conditioned building, purchase high-end clothes, visit nearby boutiques, and pick up some items for your friends back home. For other labels and designers, the Plaza Puerto Paraiso on Lazaro Cardenas y Cabo Bello streets is prime for finding all of your needed knickknacks.
Finally, the Marina Mercado is the best place to go if you are in the mood to check out local vendors, purchase handmade items, experience local culture, and purchase arts and crafts that remind you of your exciting vacation to Cabo.
If you are planning a Cabo, Mexico vacation, chances are you want to go to the beach. Of course! We don’t blame you. The weather is perfect, the water is super blue, and the sand is sprawled out in front of you. But where should you go?
There are numerous beaches for you to choose from. We recommend going to all of them, but if you only have a few days, we have a few favorites. Head to Medano Beach for a two-mile paradise that offers tons of places to set up an umbrella, lounge in a chair, and sip on a cocktail. The next day, check out Chileno Bay Public beach for perfect swimming conditions and breathtaking views.
If you want to explore a little bit further away, take a trip to the Arch of Cabo San Lucas for an unforgettable half-day or full-day trip. Use a professional charter boat to explore this breathtaking rock formation, which is the perfect photo op spot for a new Instagram picture.
Cabo is home to pristine weather, beautiful nature, and tons of opportunities. Cabo might be known for its drinking culture and spring break partiers, but we think that the best way to explore Cabo is to do outdoor activities, partake in heart-pounding events, and see the far-reaching sights over the lush green rainforest and bright blue coastline.
You can book an outdoor ziplining adventure eco tour that takes you through the high treetops and gets your heart pounding. Or try rappelling for an adventure-filled afternoon that will get your adrenaline going. We also love taking a day hike to Mt. Solapur to overlook the breathtaking coastline and get in some exercise while on vacation.
