Partying
Cabo's nightlife is at its fullest during Spring Break (March) and around New Year’s Eve. But you can find good party ambience during all the high season months. During October we have Sammy Hagar’s Birthday Bash at Cabo Wabo and the infamous Pimp’n’Ho Ball in The Pink Kitty Niteclub.
Whale Watching
Gray whales travel 10,000-12,000
miles round trip every year between their winter calving lagoons in the warm
waters of Mexico and their summer feeding grounds in the cold Arctic
seas. October is
probably the first month for seeing these magnificent animals until it
all ends in the spring. Take a look at our section on whale watching to find out what species you
can see around Los Cabos.
Fishing
Fishing in Cabo is good all year round. It all depends on what type of fish you’re looking to catch or whether you are looking to participate in a tournament. Check out our Sportfishing article to see the season chart for fish and tournaments.
Yellowfin tuna are usually the main target species at this time however it is also the big marlin tournament months so trophy Blue marlin are still in the area. Sailfish and dorado are also on the menu as are the ever present Striped marlin.
