#1 Picnic at the Beach 

To start with, there’s nothing as simple and enjoyable as a relaxing picnic at the beach. Cabo San Lucas is known for having some of the world’s most beautiful beaches. Located on the Baja California Sur peninsula, the Sea of Cortez waters create a stunning backdrop for a memorable picnic at the beach. You can order food to go from a local restaurant, or make sandwiches and bring snacks, too. Make sure to bring along drinks as well as a blanket, shady umbrella, and beach chairs if available. In Cabo, some of the best beaches to visit include Playa del Amor, Playa El Tule, and Medano Beach. Enjoy your picnic on the beach as you enjoy the great weather. If you feel like being active, Cabo beaches are ideal for many outdoor activities such as swimming, jet skiing, parasailing, kayaking, too. 

#2 Visit Flora Farms  

Secondly, Cabo has a wonderful climate all year long. That way, you can spend a lot of time being outside, which is one of the main reasons why people really love visiting Cabo. During your stay, head to Flora Farms in San Jose del Cabo which was founded in 1996 by expat couple Gloria and Patrick Greene who are from San Francisco, CA. Today, Flora Farms is a twenty-five acre farm that grows a variety of fruits and vegetables. From November to June, they mainly grow vegetables and herbs. During the summer months, they focus more on fruits including bananas, plums, mangos, pineapples, soursop, and papayas. There is no entry fee to visit Flora Farms, but we recommend enjoying a delicious meal at the onsite farm-to-table restaurant that serves dishes that use local produce grown at the farm. 

#3 San Jose del Cabo Art Walk 

Next, if you enjoy art you should check out the San Jose del Cabo art walk. Held on Thursday evenings from 5pm to 9pm during the high season months, the town’s gallery district is conveniently located next to the city’s main church and central plaza. Even little ones will enjoy strolling around exploring the local art galleries that feature works of art from local artists and international artists. Make an evening of it and enjoy a nice dinner and why not order an ice cream cone to enjoy as you stroll through the art walk?   

#4 Explore Wirikuta Botanical Cactus Gardens 

Another recommendation for a great place to visit is a beautiful botanical garden located in San Jose del Cabo called the Wirikuta Botanical Cactus Gardens. Visitors will love seeing the thousands of varieties of plants and cacti located on the twelve-acre park. In addition, there is a beautiful Sculpture Garden that showcases art from talented artists that are born and raised in Mexico. Also, don’t miss the 3 pyramids carved from slabs of giant granite stones, too. The Botanical Cactus Gardens is free to visit making it a beautiful and inexpensive place to spend the day with loved ones. Make sure to wear sunscreen, a hat, and comfortable walking shoes, too. 

#5 Go Hiking in Cabo  

Lastly, if you enjoy being active during your vacations, Cabo has some great hikes to check out. Plus, hiking with loved ones is a great way to enjoy the outdoors while also exercising together. There are a few nice hikes in Cabo to check out. To start with, one of the most popular hiking trails is the Cerro de la Zeta hike which is a moderately difficult hike that only takes about 45 minutes to complete. Note that there are somewhat challenging sections at different spots along the way so wear proper footwear and take your time. At the time, hikers will be rewarded with amazing views of Cabo San Lucas and the striking desert scenery.
