Los Cabos is legendary for pounding bass lines and bucket-sized margaritas, but all of us at The Cabo Sun know you didn’t fly all this way just to stand in another packed club.
You want memories you can brag about: the kind that start with “You’ll never believe what we did after dark in Cabo…”
Next time you’re in Cabo, grab something breezy, rally your vacation crew, and dive into these 5 nightlife adventures that redefine what a night out looks like on the tip of Baja.
🌌 Hang Out Under the Stars on a Stargazing Safari
When the city lights fade in your rear-view, the desert sky flips from charcoal to glittering velvet. Operators like The Los Cabos Stargazing Tour whisk you 25 minutes out of town after dinner with a story, set up pro-grade telescopes, and point out constellations and celestial bodies.
A guide helps you find Saturn’s rings, Jupiter’s moons, and the Milky Way arching overhead.
Round-trip transport means you can sip that second “Mezcal-Milk-Way” without worrying about the drive home.
Some hotels like the Grand Velas and Waldorf Astoria even offer stargazing experiences! Many travelers aren’t aware, but Baja California Sur is a really great place for stargazing.
🔥 Private Beach Bonfire & S’Mores—No Room Key Required
Imagine cool sand between your toes, a crackling fire at your feet, and a “s’mores butler” passing you house-made vanilla marshmallows.
The Hilton Los Cabos’ Bonfire & S’Mores Experience sells à-la-carte packages to anyone, guest or not.
For about the price of a single club table, up to six people get cushy loungers, spiked Mexican hot chocolate, and optional extras.
Book 24 hours ahead so the team can build your firepit and chill the mezcal—then toast marshmallows while the moon lights the surf.
⛵ Sail Into the Sunset (Open Bar Included)
A Cabo sunset cruise is a rite of passage, and many feel more like a floating beach club than a tourist trap.
Board the Sunset Cruise with Open Bar & Snacks and stretch out on LED-lit nets while DJs spin music and bartenders shake margaritas.
As you glide past Land’s End and Lover’s Beach, watch sea lions pose for photos and—if it’s winter—keep an eye out for humpbacks breaching against the neon sky.
Insider tip: claim a good spot on the bow for the best “green flash” sighting when the sun finally slips under the Pacific.
🏌️♂️ Smack Glow-Balls at Cabo’s Only Lighted Driving Range
If Topgolf and a beach party had a baby, it would be the night range at Cabo San Lucas Country Club.
Forty bays face neon-lit target greens while reggaetón pumps from a lounge bar pouring Baja craft brews until 10 p.m. Buckets hover around $20 USD, rental clubs are on hand, and Viva Restaurant will deliver tacos al pastor straight to your bay.
Date night? Grab the Eagle combo—four flank-steak quesadillas, two domestic beers, and 50 range balls for about 350 pesos (roughly $18 USD), tailor-made for twosomes who want to swing, sip, and snack without denting the vacation fund.
Challenge your crew to “closest to the cactus,” order tacos al pastor straight to your bay, and watch desert stars sparkle above your glowing swing path.
Golf never felt this good—or tasted this hoppy.
🎨 Thursday-Night Art Walk in San José del Cabo
Every Thursday from November through June, San José shuts down Calle Obregón for a strolling gallery of Baja creativity.
During the San José del Cabo Art Walk, colonial-era façades burst open to reveal modern abstracts, Huichol beadwork, and live jazz wafting through the plaza.
Galleries pour vino, artisan vendors hawk leather and silver, and street chefs crank out empanadas and aguachile.
The party winds down at 9 p.m.—just in time to tuck into late-night street tacos or slide into a rooftop bar for a mezcal flight.
So, What’s Your Night Move?
You can still dance ’til dawn at Mandala or Squid Row—but why not add a once-in-a-lifetime chapter to your Cabo story?
Whether you’re cheering a neon tee shot, sipping smoky cacao around a beach bonfire, or spotting Saturn’s rings under a black-velvet sky, Los Cabos after dark is wilder—and way more memorable—than any ordinary bar crawl.
Save this list, tag your travel buddies (and us on Instagram!), and let us know which adventure blew your mind. We at The Cabo Sun are already scouting the next nightlife gem… because sleep is overrated when Cabo is calling.
