Los Cabos, Mexico
desert climate · beach · medium crowds · premium prices
🏊 Swimmable sea this month (≥22°C)
Los Cabos sits in a desert climate in Mexico, and the 2015–2024 weather record gives its sunshine a clear shape: the April peak reaches a 100/100 sun score, with daytime highs around 29°C — a solid base for a beach trip.
Across a typical year, afternoon temperatures swing between 25°C (January) and 33°C (July). On the rain ledger, March is the safest bet at a 0% chance of a wet day, while September climbs to 24%. Beach-warm afternoons (24°C and up) hold through January–December.
Averaged by season, sun scores land at 99 for spring, 91 for summer, 93 for autumn and 96 for winter — with typical afternoons of 29°, 32°, 31° and 26°C respectively. Spring wins on the numbers and summer loses them; everything in between is a trade-off between warmth and crowds. For warmth without the densest crowds, the shoulder play is December: still 27°C highs, with a sun score of 96.
