Amor, Cabo Style – Valentine’s Day in Los Cabos

There’s no question that Cabo’s beautiful beaches, gorgeous ocean sunsets and luxurious resorts set the scene for romance. Los Cabos is a favorite for honeymoons, destination weddings and the haunt of the latest celebrity couples – and for good reason. If you’re looking for an unforgettable way to spend Valentine’s Day in Cabo with your main squeeze, you’ll find plenty to love.

Baja, Baby Light My Fire

The variety of activities in Los Cabos won’t disappoint  whether you’re looking for a laid-back way to take in the sights or an adrenaline-fueled bonding experience with your sweetie. There’s no better way to appreciate Cabo’s legendary natural beauty than aboard a romantic cruise on the Sea of Cortez. While you’ll find plenty of large (and fun) party boats, there are also some more intimate options. Tranquil sunset or snorkel cruises aboard the beautiful sailboats of Cabo Sails or the lovely catamaran Rissalena are among our favorites. Looking for something a little more active? High Tide Los Cabos offers great surfing lessons for all ability levels and Cabo SUP will teach you how to stand up paddle on Cabo’s beautiful waters. A horseback ride through the desert outback and along Pacific beaches with Rancho Carisuva is another picture-perfect option.

Wine & Dine through Cabo

Gourmet restaurants kick up the atmosphere with celebrity chefs, jaw-dropping ocean views and innovative international menus. Among our favorites, Hacienda Cocina is a top pick for a breathtaking oceanfront setting. Edith’s is another celebrated fave, with exceptional fine Mexican cuisine. In San José del Cabo, Don Sanchez is a favorite with locals and visitors alike for refined dining and a sophisticated atmosphere. You could spend your entire Los Cabos vacation trying a different award-winning restaurant morning, noon and night and never get bored.

In the Lap of Luxury

The magnificent resorts lining the gilded shores of Los Cabos have earned the destination a deserved place among the world’s finest getaway spots. Whether you’re looking for a boutique-style experience at an A-list retreat or an all-inclusive vacation with plenty of fun on the agenda, you’ll find a little of everything in Cabo.
