Most travelers reach Los Cabos via Los Cabos International Airport (SJD), which offers direct flights from major U.S. and Mexican cities. Budget-friendly airlines and package deals are common, making it an accessible spot for groups of friends. Intercity buses also connect Los Cabos with La Paz and Tijuana, though journeys are long.
There are no train routes into Los Cabos, but renting a car is a flexible option for exploring the area. Ferries run from Mazatlán to nearby La Paz, followed by a two-hour drive. Early April offers warm, dry weather, ideal for travel; no major weather disruptions are expected, but booking in advance is advised during this popular spring season.
Weather
Los Cabos enjoys a warm, sunny, and dry climate for most of the year, with average temperatures ranging from 20°C (68°F) in winter to 33°C (91°F) in summer. Rain is rare, especially from November through May, making it perfect for outdoor adventures and sightseeing.
From April 4 to April 11, visitors can expect daytime highs around 28°C (82°F) and pleasantly cool evenings. Skies are typically clear, humidity is low, and rainfall is unlikely, so outdoor festivals, cultural events, and exploring local gastronomy are particularly enjoyable. Extreme weather is very rare in April, offering a comfortable experience for nightlife, tours, and water activities.
Food & Drink
Los Cabos cuisine shines with fresh seafood like fish tacos, ceviche, and aguachile, alongside hearty dishes such as carne asada and tamales. Local flavors include tangy salsas, Baja-style margaritas, and the sweet treat of churros. Don't miss tasting the region’s clamato and refreshing micheladas.
Great value spots include The Office on the Beach, Tacos Gardenias, and Edith’s, where you’ll enjoy lively atmospheres and delicious food. For bars, try the rooftop at Rooftop 360 or the artisan craft beer at Baja Brewing Company. Vegetarian and vegan options are increasingly available, but check menus ahead, especially off the main tourist track.
In Los Cabos, a 10-15% tip is customary in restaurants. Since popular places can get busy, consider booking ahead, especially during high season. Tap water isn’t recommended—always ask for bottled water or drinks with purified ice.
