Frequently asked questions

What is the best month to visit Cabo San Lucas?

November–May is the best window to visit Cabo San Lucas. Warm, dry weather, plus whale-watching season from December through April.

When should I avoid visiting Cabo San Lucas?

July–October is the stretch to avoid if possible. Hot, humid, and the highest hurricane risk on the Pacific side.

Is the best time to visit Cabo San Lucas the same as the cheapest time to fly there?

Not necessarily — weather and crowd timing don't always match the cheapest airfare windows. Check our Best Time to Book Flights tool separately for pricing.

Is shoulder season worth it for Cabo San Lucas?

Usually yes — the weeks just before or after Cabo San Lucas's best window often have nearly as good weather with noticeably fewer crowds and lower prices.
