"One of the most popular beaches in Los Cabos , Playa el Médano is considered the safest for swimming. It's also quite long, offering lots of space for sunbathers to lay out a towel for the day. Those are two reasons why it attracts the crowds; another is Medano's reputation for a party atmosphere. The beach's proximity to downtown Cabo San Lucas makes it easy to hop onto the sand, order a margarita or a michelada (a beer-based Mexican concoction) and take part in the local scene."

The best and maybe only beach you can swim in Cabo with safeguards and so many amenities around from relaxing beach clubs like Corazon, Sur or Tamara, to more lively beach clubs like Taboo. Just walk by the beach and choose the beach club that fits your mood. Most beach clubs give you beach bed for a deposit you can use toward food and drinks. The water on calm days is suitable for swimming and the water temperature is great.

This is most happening beach in cabo. There are many stopping and very good restaurants.. the water taxi takes from marina to this.beach for 5 to 7 dollars per person. You can rent beach chairs and umbrellas if you needs. Most of the water activities can be done here like jet ski, snorkeling and other..

Amazing beach, cold water it is. Make sure to head right if facing ocean cause beach there is more shallow and has no waves. Make sure you take at least U$100 with you cash, that's what you'll pay for 2 sunbeds with umbrella, 1 snorkel gear, 6 fresh oysters and a light lunch. Add another U$60 for a 30 minutes waverunner ride.

This is such a nice short walk from my hotel. Leading up to the beach, you will pass through cobblestone pathways, restaurants and shops. Medano Beach is one of the few places where you can swim in the ocean. The sand is such a beautiful golden brown. There are a lot of areas to lay your towel down or rent a lounger / day bed. A lot of food options with restaurants and lively music. You can also take advantage of the water activities like banana boats.

Beautiful and Lively Beach with Something for Everyone Medano Beach is a must if you’re in Cabo! It’s a public beach with access points every few blocks, even though it’s surrounded by hotels and resorts. It’s super easy to get to, whether you’re staying nearby or just visiting for the day. There are tons of beach clubs if you’re looking for food, drinks, and music—but be ready, prices are high, as you’d expect in a popular tourist spot. That said, you can also bring your own drinks, umbrella, and chairs and just relax on the sand, which is a huge plus. Yes, there are plenty of vendors walking by trying to sell you things, but honestly, they’re not too pushy and usually take a polite “no thanks” well. Overall, it’s a very nice and family-friendly beach with beautiful water, great people-watching, and a fun vibe. Perfect spot to spend the day!

Very nice beach. Great for families. You can swim/tan/explore the tide pools looking at crabs! It can get a bit crowded, but worth it for the free parking and bathrooms! Bring your snacks because there’s really no food accessible.

Very nice sand and clear water, it is a very pretty beach. There are many many peddlers selling their wares so not a lot of peace to yourself on this beach. We had a hard and impossible time trying to find a decent Margarita for under 20$ dollars.

One of the best beaches I've visited. There are so many activities and fun things to do. The views alone are worth going for.
