    This is not really a warning, it actually made me feel more secure. Security has tightened at the airport. I was wanded and my suitcase was searched - nothing but dirty laundry however. The security people are very serious so don't try joking with them, they don't laugh.

  • I have been to Cabo San Lucas 6 times, and absolutely love it. Safety has never been an issue. I have never been approached about purchasing drugs, but my male friend was approached several times as we walked down the street. We also ran across some very "friendly" local ladies at Squid Roe. They were extremely obvious, and blatant in what they were offering. They mostly seemed to be out and about on the week-ends.

    The bugs are so disgusting, huge bugs I've never seen before in my life and dragonfly's everywhere, not they will hurt anyone but there were definetly spiders as you can see from this picture I took of the hallway after walking back from dinner. that was a big spider, and both of us ended up with bug bites that looked and itched like mosquito bites yet we never once saw a mosquito....it freaks me out just thinking about it!

  • Wether it be on the beach or on the streets, sometimes you may get surrounded by many Mexicans , children included, trying to get you to but things. Some can be pushy and in some cases where it is so bad, it's better to just ignore them and wak away. Beware if you are a young lady or just a woman in general, the Mexicans approach you more and say things like, oh, you can have it for free...it's not true! One mexican guy even tried to grab my arm and that made me angry and I was more careful.

  • Cabo's sidewalks are not often very smooth. Even in the tourist areas downtown they're cracked and uneven. Didn't hear about or see any crime, but the lay of the land presents opportunities after dark. Use common sense when consuming water & other local beverages. Don't drink right out of the creek.

  • I don't want to scare anyone with this because I myself have never had any issues there with theft, however I wouldn't count it out.
    While I was on my whale watching tour, the guide told us something very funny yet true..
    "Things never get lost in mexico, they just find new owners" lol.. its very true however.
    The country is still mexico regardless of how nice it is. The people I met there are very friendly however I can't speak for everyone who lives there. You should take this advice for any place you travel really. Think if you are a mexican living there and you see some tourists in your land. Tourist = $$$.. they can add it together.

  • Just spent a week in Cabo and had a blast! However; one little tip I would like to give is... Watch out for the F@#$!&@ HUMONGOUS SPIDERS! On our fouth night in Bonito Sunset Resort, we were walking up the stairs and the biggest spider we have ever seen was masking the stone step in front of us. I mean this thing was bigger then a tarantula. Over the next few days we seen them around at night and were comletely paranoid. Our neighbor stated that their friends found one in their room and smashed. I will post a pic when i get it downloaded.

  • My sister and I sometimes went walking around at night and I must say, you have to be careful. Mexicans can be creeps and try to pick you up, asking if you have a boyfriend and whistle at you and look you up and down as you walk past them. I would advise not to walk alone if you are a girl because it is worse being approached than if you are a guy.

  • The menu for this restaurant sounds good, but it's not. It's a chinese place off the marina and the staff doesn't understand English and the food's not prepared very well. Save yourself a trip and don't bother.

    We were walking on the streets going to some stores and we were approached by a young girl probably 3 years old or so and she was trying to get us to buy some gum from her. How can you say no to such a cute kid? Along with their parents , these young kids are already trying to make a living I guess you could say. She was so cute I wanted to take her home with me but haha I didn't.
