June to August:  Surfers will find great waves in Baja California Sur on a year-round basis, although the scene shifts according to the season. During the winter months, for example, the best top breaks are found on the Pacific Coast, most notably off beaches like Cerritos, San Pedrito and La Pastora. The Sea of Cortés takes center stage during the summer months, when seasonal weather fronts and storms called chubascos send perfect southeast swells towards Los Cabos and its beautiful East Cape. Tourist Corridor sites like Monuments reach their zenith during the summer, as do East Cape meccas Nine Palms and Shipwrecks. The most famous summer break, however, is Zippers at Playa Costa Azul in San José del Cabo. Costa Azul’s middle break and nearby Acapulquito are popular spots for beginners, and lessons are available. To learn more about the local surf scene, drop us a line at info@cabovivo.com.

August – May: The whale shark is the largest fish in the world, reaching up to 40 feet in length, and weighing as much as 47,000 pounds. There is no risk in swimming with these gentle giants, however, since they subsist solely on plankton. Baja California Sur’s capital city of La Paz is the premier place to indulge in this interactive and unforgettable wildlife adventure, with the majority of swim tours occurring near the tip of the El Mogote peninsula. Complimentary round-trip transportation from Los Cabos is provided by several respected activities providers. To learn more contact us by clicking the LEARN MORE button below

August – December: Five of the world’s seven endangered sea turtle species come to Baja California to lay their eggs–the green turtle, hawksbill, loggerhead, olive ridley and leatherback (the largest sea turtle and the world’s fastest aquatic reptile)–with local convervation agencies and some area resorts offering opportunities to assist in the hatchling process. Although mature sea turtles are long-lived and have few predators, they are in great danger during their initial journey away from the nest, extremely vulnerable to predators on both land and sea.  In Los Cabos, sea turtle season stretches from late August until early December.

August – September: Los Cabos boasts spectacular year-round diving, with a half-dozen great sites at Land’s End alone, plus easy access to the living coral reef at Cabo Pulmo – one of the oldest and largest in the Western Hemisphere–and dedicated shipwreck dive sites in both Los Cabos and La Paz. One local boat, the Solmar V, even offers week-long trips to the Revillagigedo Archipelago, some 250 miles south of Cabo San Lucas, for unbelievable underwater encounters with deep sea creatures like manta rays, dolphins and great white sharks. The best times to visit in terms of water temperatures and visibility are during the late summer and early autumn months. From July through October, water temperatures typically range from about 75 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit.
