Costa Azul Swimming
After doing Costa Azul Swimming countless times, here is my honest take.
Swimming at A Azul Swimming: Careful, waves. Surf beach.
The real cost of a azul swimming in Cabo is Free access, parking varies, rentals available at some beaches. Here's how to get the best value without overpaying.
Medano Beach is Cabo's only major swimmable beach in town — it's also the busiest. Beach clubs like Mango Deck and The Office line the sand with food, drinks, and music.
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.
Pro tip from locals: mid-range options are the sweet spot for quality.
