Booking Tips

Tour boats to El Arco and Lover's Beach. Book 1-2 days ahead, especially for sunset tours which fill up quickly.

Tip: Morning tours have calmer water. Book from marina vendors for better prices than hotel concierge.

☁️ Book at marina or through GetYourGuide/Viator

Cabo Pulmo and other sites. Tours can fill up—book 2-3 days ahead. Small group tours book up faster.

Tip: Best visibility October-May. Check reviews carefully—quality varies significantly between operators.

☁️ Book through tour operators or GetYourGuide/Viator

Popular farm-to-table restaurant. Reservations essential—book at least 1 week ahead for dinner, especially weekends.

Hours: Tue-Sat 10am-9pm, Sun 10am-5pm. Closed Mondays.

Tip: Lunch is slightly easier to book. The setting is beautiful—worth the planning ahead.

Most beach clubs accept walk-ins, but day beds/cabanas may sell out. Call ahead or arrive early to secure a spot.

Tip: Minimum spend required at most clubs. Check pricing before committing—varies widely.

☁️ Contact individual beach clubs directly or through hotel concierge

Cabo is not a strong public-transit arrival destination. Most travelers use shuttle, taxi, or rental car from the airport.

Shared/private shuttles: Usually the smoothest option for hotels and resorts. Good value for couples and groups.

Taxis: Available at airport stands, but fares are higher than in-town rides.

Rental cars: Best if you plan day trips beyond your resort area. Prebook for better rates and vehicle availability.

Should you prebook? Yes—strongly recommended for airport transfer or car rental, especially in peak travel months.

My recommendation: Prebook an airport shuttle if you're staying at a resort, or prebook a rental car if exploring multiple towns.

☁️ Best overall: prebooked shuttle for ease, rental car for flexibility

No trains in Cabo. Most visitors use taxis, Uber, rental cars, or hotel shuttles. Book car rentals in advance for best rates.

Taxis: Regulated fares (set prices between zones). $15-30 for most trips within hotel zone. Agree on price before departure.

Uber: Available and often cheaper than taxis. Good coverage in tourist areas.

Rental cars: Book ahead for $25-50/day. Useful for exploring beyond the hotel zone (Todos Santos, beaches, La Paz).

Tip: Many all-inclusive resorts are far from town. Budget for transport or book a rental car if you want to explore.

My recommendation: Rent a car if you want flexibility. Great for day trips to Todos Santos, La Paz, or secluded beaches. Skip it if you're staying at an all-inclusive and happy using Uber for occasional outings.
