As one of the top 5 locations for 2024, Cabo checks off many boxes for couples looking for a destination wedding. It's easy to travel to and has so many choices for accommodations and activities.

Nestled along the coast of Baja California Sur, Los Cabos comprises 2 main cities; San Jose Del Cabo, and Cabo San Lucas. About 25 miles apart, San Jose Del Cabo (SJD) is the main airport, whereas Cabo San Lucas (CLS) is a smaller private international airport.

Visitors have their pick from affordable all-Inclusive adventures to ultra luxury getaways at a variety of hotels and resorts along the coastline. Couples with big and small wedding budgets can plan the day of their dreams in this stunning locale. Whether you go adults-only or family friendly, Los Cabos has a wedding venue for you.

Los Cabos is known for its beautiful weather, stunning beaches, and breathtaking whale-watching, but it's important to note that not all beaches in Cabo are swimmable due to the extremely strong currents of the Sea of Cortez. If you're a Thalassophile aka a fish out of water, choosing a resort with safe ocean access might be an important factor for you or your guests. You just learned a new vocabulary word!

The most popular swimmable beach is known as Medano Beach. This 2 mile stretch takes up the majority of the coast in the main Cabo San Lucas area. A number of resorts like Corazon, Casa Dorada, ME Cabo, and Pueblo Bonito are lined up along the sand. The atmosphere is very lively with a number of legendary bars nearby the beach like "Mango Deck" and "Squid Roe" for those who came ready to party. You can buy jewelry, rent a jet ski, or charter a boat ride out to the famed rock formation "El Arco." One side of the Arch is flanked by "Lovers Beach", with swimmable water great for snorkeling. Just a few hundred yards on the other side of the shore is "Divorce Beach." Locals bestowed the cryptic namesake because the water is said to be so dangerous- "two go over and one comes back."

As you make your way towards San Jose Del Cabo, you'll discover "Bahia Santa Maria." Guests of the overlooking Montage Resort have prime access to this popular beach hangout. Continuing north, explore Chileno Bay near the Auberge or Palmilla Beach near the One & Only Palmilla. If you're looking for real peace and privacy, consider the newly opening Four Seasons Costa Palmas along the eastern coastline.
