10 Free Things to do in Los Cabos That You Shouldn't Miss

October 15, 2021 Renato Branum

Mexico's fastest growing resort area offers miles of empty desert and deserted beaches. Laid-back nightlife and old-fashioned fun in the sun is the Cabos' lure. Only certain beaches are safe for swimming, however, including Lovers' Beach and the more tempestuous and aptly named Divorce Beach. Whale watching, hang-gliding, snorkeling, antiquing, golf and fishing, Loreto's historic mission, and sport fishing and dining in capital La Paz are other attractions. SuburBaja buses travel the coast.

Ivan Guaderrama Art Gallery

Reviewed By janemB1490XZ

This was such an unexpected delight! From the minute i walked in the door, there was a personal greeting, invitation to view the interactive artwork and download a free APP to enjoy the gallery on my own or with their docents! The artwork literally comes alive thru the APP, when you touch it. There is a piano piece that you PLAY! Another piece where you and another person can each touch the side and then hold hands. You play music with your fingers on your partner's hand!

Must visit when in San Jose. Silvermoon Gallery has a beautiful collection of indigenous and modern art. We enjoyed talking to Armando, his knowledge of folklore and art will keep you entertained for days. Wife and I could not leave without purchasing a beautiful piece of art, due to size it had to be shipped to Florida. Silvermoon did an outstanding job with delivery and customer service.

Mt. Solmar

Reviewed By travlngal2015

Hubby, friend and I decided to try the climb on our own only to discover a wonderful person named, Enrique. Enrique took our group up the mountain but unfortunately my husband and I got separated from the group and was solo. Enrique did discover us as we made our way down. My recommendations are to wear good footwear, hat, sunscreen and bring water or an electrolyte type drink. Enrique offers this climb every morning at 9:30. He doesn't charge for being your guide, and tips are optional. TIP the Man! He was my savior that day and saved my a**. He is also a dog trainer and the tips help out with food expenses, etc. LOVE You Enrique ! You are the man!

Galeria Ida Victoria, run by Ida Gustavson, is our favorite art gallery in San Jose del Cabo. Over the years, we have become close friends with the Ida and her assistant Alegria. We have attended a dramatic performance there as well as a few concerts held at the gallery. She has a great selection of artists on view. Two of our favorites are Brent Lynch and Michael Carlyle. On the Thursday art walk, you will miss out if you don't visit this special place.

Enrique Bascon, Galeria de Arte

Art Gallery housing the works of artist Enrique Bascon. Located in the famous Art District of San Jose del Cabo. The gallery has original paintings and drawings, Giclée Fine Art pieces, Paper prints and some sculptors. The artist is an observer of our society and uses his talent to comment about the sociopolitical situation of our dear Mexico.

Reviewed By Q3935CDteresaw

My family also happened upon Enrique Bascon’s stunning gallery during a Thursday evening Art Walk in San Jose del Cabo. While Enrique’s paintings are beautiful in their own right, the artist’s story behind each image truly brings them to life. As my husband and I studied the pieces, my 8 year old son approached the artist saying, “I think I understand your paintings. Each one is a little bit real but has a “weird” part too.” Far from being annoyed or offended, Enrique and his wife engaged in a lengthy conversation with my entire family explaining the cultural/historical roots of his paintings and his efforts to bring a modern/personal statement to each. My son was delighted to have the artist take a true interest his thoughts, and I fell more in love with Enrique’s art with each story. Thankfully I was able to take a piece home with me and I will smile with beautiful memories every time I see it. Thank you!!

Bay of Cabo San Lucas

Sheltered harbor great for fishing.

Reviewed By RichardS778 - Scottsdale, United States

My wife and I have been to Los Cabos and the bay area many times on land and on cruise trips. On our last cruise on Princess the ship will shuttle you into the very pretty small harbor and from there you can strike out to so many points of interest like beaches, just a short water taxi ride or cab ride away, there is good fishing depending on the season, whale watching, snorkling, hotels, all inclusive resorts and this is a destination wedding location for many. With rere exception it is safe but always remember you are in Mexico and be smart. During the day it is 100% safe in my opinion. There is the usual tourist shopping...many places to eat and have drinks and so on. Hills surround the bay and it is just beautiful. Safe swimming in the bay but not on the Pacific side. Many tours are available. Folks there are friendly.

Playa del Amor

Pretty beach ideal for swimming, sunning and snorkeling.

Reviewed By marsha395 - Dallas, United States

Took a nice hike over from Lands End on a recent Saturday morning. It was a busy place with a few vendors and lots of water taxis coming and going. Beautiful place if you want to spend some time in the water!!! Nice to actually be on Lovers Beach rather than just looking at it from one of the boat rides!
