Cerritos Beach Worth It
Cerritos Beach Worth It runs $48-208 per person and solid if you do it right. After years here, I have opinions.
Cerritos Beach: Great surf spot north of Cabo. Swimming: True.
People keep asking if cerritos beach is worth the money (Free access, parking varies, rentals available at some beaches). Having seen dozens of visitors do this, here's the honest answer.
Lover's Beach is only accessible by water taxi from Medano ($15-20 round trip). It's beautiful and iconic but bring everything you need — no vendors or facilities.
Cabo's beaches range from the party scene at Medano to completely empty stretches along the East Cape. The Pacific side generally has stronger currents and is not swimmable.
Chileno Bay and Santa Maria are the best snorkeling beaches, both with calm protected coves. Free access, limited facilities. Arrive before 10am for the best spots.
Pro tip from locals: morning slots have calmer water and better conditions.
