Los Cabos Gay Scene

Los Cabos is an open-minded and tolerant destination where you can be yourself. Service levels for all guests are high and local businesses pay attention to the fine details.

Los Cabos can be divided into three distinct areas. San Jose del Cabo is the town closest to the airport. Locals consider this to be “The Old Town”, complete with colonial architecture, art galleries, shops, a lively town square and an authentic Mexican vibe.  The atmosphere is laid back and relaxed.

Cabo San Lucas is home to the regions parties and nightlife and of course the Instagrammable Arch, “Al Arco”, at Land’s End.

The Corridor is a highway connecting the partygoers at Los Cabos to the elegance of San Jose. Along the highway you will find some stunning holiday villas, perfect for a group getaway or special occasion.

Gay bars get busy from around 11pm, so make sure you fit in your afternoon siesta after sunset.  Clubs get busier even later. Cabos menus offer innumerable local tequilas and handcrafted cocktails you won’t find north of the border.

Los Cabos Gay Bars

  • Chandeliers is the only “official” gay bar in Los Cabos and plays host to many theme nights, strip shows, drag performances and more. The music is loud and the cocktails are great. The club is located above Madeira steak house, a block from Cabo Wabo Cantina. The club is open from Thursday to Monday from 9pm to 5am.

Gay Friendly Bars and Clubs

  • Mandala is the official party-temple in Cabo and is the meeting point for night lovers and partyholics with a glamorous oriental decoration.
  • Mixology Fusion bar in San Jose is a Speakeasy style bar and is located inside an old farmhouse in the heart of the historic centre of San Jose. Each night they have different music styles, from Jazz to Dance to House.
  • The Nowhere Bar: Contrary to its name, The Nowhere Bar is a beacon in Cabo's nightlife. Overlooking the picturesque downtown marina, it’s a haven for evening wanderers looking to ignite their night with spirited conversations and drinks.
  • Rooftop at the Cape – The best rooftop bar and lounge in Cabo, where gorgeous sunsets yield to a warmly illuminated al fresco sky garden with sweeping views to downtown Cabo San Lucas and El Arco. Enjoy Osvaldo Vazquez’s supblime handcrafted cocktails

A calm Medano Beach in Cabo

While the beaches look stunning in Los Cabos, many are not suitable for swimming as the surf is rough and the currents are strong. There are however a few protected coves where you can take a dip! Cabos is quite integrated so there is no distinct gay beach as such, however the following beaches are popular with local gays and visitors:

  • Medano Beach is the most popular swimming beach in the area and offers numerous opportunities for fun in the sun and in the water. If you prefer to avoid the crowds then head north-east towards Club Cascadas and Villa del Palmar.
  •  “Lover’s Beach” is also a popular beach.  The beach is very busy in the afternoons as people go to watch the sunset and photo the famous “El Arco”.
  • If you tire of the crowds, head to Divorce beach which is just a 5 minute walk away and has, in our opinion, the best sunset views.
  • Divorce beach takes its name from its turbulent waters and strong currents, in direct contrast with its swim-friendly neighbour, Lover’s Beach. Water taxis (known locally as ‘pangas’) are the cheapest option to reach the beach, but you can also rent a kayak or jet ski from Médano Beach

Alternatively, sun bathe poolside in one of Cabo’s luxury beach clubs and hotels.

  • The Omnia Los Cabos is a stunning beach club with great dining, private vip tables, beach lounges and more. The club hosts an all-day escape overlooking the Sea of Cortez in San José del Cabo. With world-class DJs, and great service.

Getting Around Los Cabos

First of all, it is important to know that Los Cabos is in fact two cities separated by about 35 km distance. To the west is Cabo San Lucas, and to the east is San Jose del Cabo.

  • Most of the hotels and resorts have shuttles that you can use very inexpensively or for free. Sometimes these shuttles only go between the hotel and the airport, but you can often use them to get in between your resort and downtown or to nearby restaurants.
  • Taxis and ubers are cheap and plentiful.
  • Car rental is the best way to explore Los Cabos and the surrounding region. Compare and get the best rates.

From the airport:

Los Cabos international airport is located in San Jose del Cabo. To take the bus from the airport is quite easy.

The fee is a round $4 USD and it will take you anywhere in the bus route, whether you are going to San Jose del Cabo or Cabo San Lucas including many beaches and hotels. The bus in Los Cabos is safe, cheap and convenient. Most of the drivers speaks the basic English, and they are familiar with the name of the hotels and stops, so just speak clearly when you say y our destination.

Gay Los Cabos – When to visit?

  • The best time to visit Cabo is from May to June, when the wintertime crowds have gone home and the summertime storms have yet to hit. October and November are also nice months for a vacation, but you'll need to begin your hotel search early if you want to save money.
  • During the Summer, Cabo is slightly cooler than nearby San Jose. This is due to the pacific winds. Cabo is less rainy than San Jose.
  • Dry Season is March to July, but the busy peak season takes place from November to February. January is the driest month of the high season and also the busiest.
