Many American travelers love an amazing beach vacation, and there are a lot of destinations all over the world to choose from.   

But Los Cabos is one of the top beach destinations for Americans this summer, and it isn’t hard to see why.   

Los Cabos, which includes the separate but equally fascinating destinations of Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo, has a lot to offer, and there are many reasons for it being one of the top choices for Americans this summer.

Easy Access 

Currently, there are direct flights to Los Cabos International Airport from 26 U.S. cities.   

And out of the more than 4 million passengers that have already arrived at the busy airport this year, more than 50 percent of them have been travelers from the United States.   

Between the months of January and June, the total number of American travelers that arrived at Los Cabos Airport was nearly 2.3 million.

Extraordinary Accommodations 

Easy access to Los Cabos is only part of the story of the destination’s huge popularity among Americans.   

While the easy access is what gets travelers to Los Cabos, it’s the extraordinary accommodations in the region that keep them coming back.   

Both Cabo San Lucas and San Jose del Cabo are known for their extensive offerings of luxury all-inclusive resorts that take all of the worry out of an amazing beach vacation and inspire relaxation and rejuvenation.

@constedt I have no words for Grand Velas Cabo. I’m in love. This is high end in every aspect and I absolutely loved it! Family friendly 307 room property and every bit of it is amazing! Five Diamond and Five Star resort, which is the first resort to be given both accolades! Also…a boutique style adults only opens right next to it this Nov with only 79 rooms! 24 hour butler/concierge service for every room as well as a pre arrival concierge at this property! #algvacations #amstardmc #askatraveladvisor #PlanwithaPro #ALGVCabo2023 #SecretsPuertoLosCabos #LosCabosTourism #ALGVFAMS2023 ♬ Isn't She Lovely – Stevie Wonder

Nature At Its Finest 

The beaches in Los Cabos are no doubt amazing, but they are not the only nature worth exploring in the region.   

In fact, Los Cabos has been growing in popularity among nature lovers as well.   

These travelers visit the region for the hiking, ATV adventures, horseback and camel riding, the nearby mountains, and more.

Water Activities 

Along with beautiful beaches on both the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortez comes endless opportunities for water activities too.   

And there is no shortage of tour companies offering exciting excursions in the deep blue waters surrounding the area.   

Snorkeling, diving, jet skiing, paddleboarding, kayaking, fishing charters, and relaxing boat tours can be booked any day of the week in the destination.

Culture And History 

While some resort towns lack a lot of culture and history to be explored, this is not the case in Los Cabos.   

San Jose del Cabo, the more culturally rich of the two Cabos, is known for its artistic community and historic city center.   

And for those willing to go a little beyond Los Cabos, there are amazing, authentic, culture-filled towns like Todos Santos and La Paz that are definitely worth visiting.

Wellness Experiences 

Los Cabos is also the place to go for those looking for amazing wellness experiences, and in fact, one wellness experience provider was just given a prestigious award for providing the unique experience of sound healing to visitors.   

Temazcal ceremonies are another unique experience to be had when visiting the region, a wellness experience that can’t be found in many places other than Los Cabos.   

Additionally, numerous world-class spas can be found in the luxury all-inclusive resorts in the destination.

American Tourism In Los Cabos 

Americans don’t have to go very far to visit Los Cabos because the part of Mexico that is home to Los Cabos is directly connected to the U.S.   

The close proximity is what led to the region becoming popular among Hollywood elite like John Wayne and Charlie Chaplin as early as the 1960s.   

Since then, Los Cabos has continued to grow in popularity among American travelers from all walks of life and, for the foreseeable future, will continue to do so.
