6 Days in Baja California, incl. La Paz and Cabo San Lucas
View itinerary
- Day 1
  La Paz Arrival
  Plan to arrive in La Paz in the afternoon to skip rush hour traffic. The airport is just 20 minutes from most hotels. Take an evening walk along the malecón, the waterfront promenade that stretches 3.5 miles. This walk will help you get your bearings and spot good local restaurants for dinner.
- Day 2
  La Paz City & Beaches
  Start your morning at Playa Balandra before the crowds arrive around 11 AM. Take a quick 10-minute walk to see the famous mushroom rock but bring water shoes since the sand gets very hot. For lunch, head to Playa El Tecolote where local beach restaurants serve great fish tacos for about $3-4 each.
- Day 3
  Espíritu Santo Island
  Take a boat trip to Espíritu Santo Island, about 45 minutes from La Paz marina. If you're visiting between September and May, you can swim with sea lions. Bring a light jacket for the cool morning boat ride. Important: Only biodegradable sunscreen is allowed to protect the marine life.
- Day 4
  La Paz to Los Cabos
  The drive from La Paz to Cabo takes roughly 2.5 hours, but plan for 4-5 hours if you want to explore along the way. Stop in Todos Santos to browse art galleries and boutiques. Take a glass-bottom boat to The Arch in early afternoon for the best photos. As one visitor shared: "The boat ride to The Arch was smoother than expected, and the clarity of the water through the glass bottom was incredible – we could see tropical fish swimming right beneath us."
- Day 5
  Los Cabos Free Day
  Stay in the Corridor area between Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo for good beach access. Médano Beach is one of the few safe swimming spots in Cabo San Lucas. Visit the fish market in San José del Cabo early morning to watch the local fishermen bring in their catch.
- Day 6
  Departure
  From Cabo San Lucas to San José del Cabo Airport (SJD), you'll need at least 45 minutes for the drive. Allow 2-3 hours for airport procedures. Security lines are usually shorter for morning flights. Some visitors prefer staying in San José del Cabo their last night to be closer to the airport.
