Hooray…it’s that time of year again when we can feel the weather changing and we are all definitely ready for it. Spring is here, and with it, many students from all around the world arrive for their oh-so-famous Spring Break and Semana Santa and decide to let loose and enjoy our beaches. Medano Beach being one of their favorites.
But do not be fooled, springtime in Cabo is a lot more than beach all day and party all night. For those of you needing a change in scenery, weather, or just a relaxing getaway, let me share some of the wonders you can experience this time, or any other time of the year:
· A day on the water. An obvious choice I know, but there are several beaches in Baja California Sur that are kid and pet friendly and represent a great opportunity to just relax and connect with nature: Medano, La Playita, La Fortuna, Shipwrecks, Cabo Pulmo, Buena Vista, La Ventana and Tecolote are just a few. But I also want to emphasize the beauty of jumping into a boat and going fishing or simply relaxing by the wonderous views of the Baja Sur coastline. Salty skin, messy hair, a healthy dose of Vitamin D…nothing beats a sunny day in or on the water.
· Hiking through the many beautiful mountains in Baja. A family and budget friendly activity where you can take your entire family and walk up to Las Antennas (at El Tezal in Cabo) or the Punta Lobos on the Pacific (close to Todos Santos). The walks are not that steep and once you reach the top, the beautiful views are beyond anything you can imagine or capture with a picture.
· San Jose Art Walk. Every Thursday night from November to June, downtown San Jose del Cabo comes alive with local artisans, street vendors and art galleries showcasing their work. Even though I’m a local and I visit it often, there’s always something new to admire, different music to dance to, and a variety of food to try. Plus, a street churro or an esquite (Mexican corn) are perfect desserts!
· Spa day. Something as simple as a massage, a facial or even getting your nails done are underrated indulgences we owe to ourselves every now and then. Whether you have a professional treat you at your private rental villa, your own Cabo home, or you visit your hotel spa, let yourself be pampered the Cabo way.
Lastly, as Julia Roberts learned in her “Eat Pray Love” movie, practice Dolce Far Niente, the sweetness of doing nothing. Wake up late, take a selfie by the ocean, order room service and eat chocolate pancakes for breakfast. Finish that book that you’ve had by your nightstand forever, don’t reply to emails, and smile at the many compliments you get on your vacation insta-stories. Spring has arrived and Los Cabos is always a great place to experience it!
