Los Cabos is showing distinct positive momentum as it moves through the early months of 2025, with tourism indicators painting a bright picture for the renowned Baja California Sur destination. From bustling arrival halls to lively hotels, the region is reaffirming its status as a top choice for both international and domestic travelers, according to observations and data gathered by The Cabo Sun.
Visitor Arrivals Signal a Lively Start
The energy in Los Cabos has been palpable since the year began, with a consistent flow of visitors eager to experience its unique offerings. Data indicates a healthy uptick in overall activity, particularly in March, which saw a notable increase in passenger arrivals compared to the same month in 2024. This surge contributed to an atmosphere of vibrant vacation enjoyment across the capes.
Adding to this positive trend is the impressive growth in domestic tourism. A significant rise in Mexican nationals choosing Los Cabos for their holidays has been recorded, underscoring the destination’s broad appeal and the local confidence in its quality and attractions. This strong domestic base is a key component of the region’s sustained tourism health.
International Spotlight Remains Firmly on Los Cabos
Los Cabos continues to shine brightly on the international stage, its strong global standing reinforced by a positive trend in early 2025, notably a 1.3% increase in international passenger arrivals in March compared to the prior year. This encouraging growth is significantly buoyed by robust demand from the Canadian market, which saw an impressive 12.2% surge in arrivals during the first two months of 2025, underscoring a continued and fervent international desire for the distinct and captivating experiences that only Los Cabos can offer.
What’s Behind Cabo’s Enduring Popularity?
Several key factors contribute to Los Cabos’ sustained allure. Enhanced accessibility plays a role, with tourism officials highlighting good airline seat capacity from crucial markets like the United States and Canada. This ease of travel opens the door for more visitors to explore the region.
Beyond logistics, the destination itself offers a compelling mix. Los Cabos is celebrated for its luxurious resorts, world-class golf courses often set against stunning ocean backdrops, and renowned sportfishing. The culinary scene continues to evolve, drawing praise for its fresh ingredients and innovative chefs. The natural beauty, where the desert landscape meets the azure waters of the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortez, provides a breathtaking setting for all these activities. This appeal was recently underscored when The New York Times featured Los Cabos as the only Mexican destination in its “52 Places to Go in 2025,” citing its remarkable scenery and high-quality tourism offerings.
Hotel Vibes Are Positive
The positive arrival trends are mirrored in the local accommodation sector. Hotel occupancy rates in early 2025 have been robust. Hotels in March 2025 reported an impressive average occupancy of 80.7%, reflecting a destination bustling with activity and indicating a strong demand for Los Cabos hotels. This indicates that visitors are not just passing through but are actively engaging with and enjoying the diverse hospitality options available.
Los Cabos offers a wide spectrum of lodging, from opulent five-star resorts to charming boutique hotels and private residences, ensuring that different traveler preferences and styles are well catered to.
