Enjoy a Warm and Welcoming Christmas in Cabo
When you make Cabo your vacation destination of choice this Christmas, you’ll be thrilled to find you don’t have to worry about packing any winter coats, gloves, or snow boots for your journey. That’s because this time of year, Los Cabos offers its visitors clear and sunny skies to enjoy with average daily highs typically lingering around 75 degrees Fahrenheit. This is exactly where you want to find yourself if you’re someone who struggles with the winter blues and is looking to add some sunlight and gentle ocean breezes into their holiday experience.
Being immersed in this beautiful seasonal weather also makes it easier than ever to customize your Christmas itinerary while you’re in town. In Cabo, your Christmas getaway can come with the perfect pairing of indoor and outdoor adventures, no matter what your travel preferences might be.
Get Out on the Water This Holiday Season
A Christmas getaway to Cabo is a wonderful opportunity to head out and explore the great outdoors at its best. If you’re a traveler who can easily access their vacation state of mind when you have gorgeous views to enjoy from your place on the water, Los Cabos at Christmas promises to be unforgettable!
December marks the beginning of whale watching season in the area, which is ideal for those who have a passion for wildlife. As humpback and gray whales begin to arrive in Baja’s warm waters, following their set migration path, Christmastime travelers have the unique opportunity to be the first on the water to observe their journey.
While there’s nothing to keep you from heading out on a boat and enjoying the view for yourself, there are also many guided options in the area to consider as well. Heading out on the waves for a whale watching experience at Christmas alongside a naturalist guide can be extremely beneficial for those looking to learn more about these incredible creatures along the way. Depending on the tour you select, you might even have the opportunity to step on board a tour vessel with a hydrophone in place, allowing you to listen to whale songs as they’re happening below the waves.
Yet another terrific way to spend the holidays in Los Cabos is with snorkeling gear in hand. Places like Santa Maria Cove and Chileno Bay are both beloved snorkeling destinations in Cabo that are typically bustling with incredible marine life to observe from the water this time of year.
It’s the Perfect Place to be a Part of Local Christmas Festivities
Taking quality time to unwind, relax, and celebrate in Los Cabos with family and friends at Christmas is a chance to match traditional holiday fun from home with Mexican holiday customs as well. Here, the atmosphere is undeniably joyous this time of year.
The festive vibes get underway with the start of the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, which kicks off as early as December 12. This meaningful celebration is followed by Las Posadas, which marks nine days of holiday celebrations that commemorate the biblical journey of Mary and Joseph. During Las Posadas, visitors to Los Cabos will enjoy watching candlelight processions make their way through town, and there’s typically caroling involved in the festivities as well. Many restaurants, resorts, and homes are open for holiday parties during Las Posadas, keeping the community ambiance strong during this festive season.
Iconic destinations in Los Cabos like the Cabo Wabo Cantina often host holiday concerts and live music events this time of year as well. If your Christmas trip brings you to Los Cabos between December 12 and January 6, you’ll find you’re right on time to be a part of the month-long Maratón Guadalupe-Reyes.
