C abo San Lucas is an internationally renowned party spot where young people, especially Spring Breakers, get “loco.” Considered the Las Vegas South of the Border, it’s a place where hedonism and debauchery rules. Grab some friends, check into one of the sleek Cabo San Lucas villas for rent, and prepare yourself for one hell of a time.
The clubs here are legendary and many can be found down Bulevar Marina and Cárdenas. Outside of a few clubs, conga lines are formed while bartenders shoot tequila liberally down the thirsty dancers’ throats using a spray gun. Yeah, you can only imagine what goes on inside. One of the most well-known is Cabo Wabo, owned by the famous rocker Sammy Hagar. Look for the lighthouse and you’ve arrived. It’s a place where celebrity spotting becomes a sport and the large dance floor is packed with people grooving to loud hard rock played by the house band. On occasion, the Red Rocker himself and other famous musicians drop by for a jam session. The antithesis of Cabo Wabo is El Squid Roe, a boozy long-standing establishment that welcomes you with Squid Busters and an outrageous time. The feel is tropical, the music is mostly stuck in the 80s and 90s, and the girls are table dancing like it’s going out of style. Be prepared to get an eyeful at what is known as the first bar in Cabo, the Giggling Marlin. Their signature drink is Skip And Go Naked and they are famous for the upside-down harness hang. Need I say more?
If you need a day off, there are countless options. Stumbling out of your place to the beach you will be spoilt for choice with aquatic activities. Jet skis, banana boats, diving, and snorkeling are just a few of the options. Nearby are two districts to relax in, San Jose del Cabo and The Corridor. San Jose del Cabo, or “Old Town” has that enchanting historic Mexico feel to it. But the polished new resorts are starting to move in. The Corridor is rife with condos and golf courses lining the beautiful coastline, a perfect spot to mellow out. Better yet, rent a car and cruise to more remote parts of the area, where you’ll be treated to some well-deserved moments of serenity.
Then let another next night of sweaty madness commence.
