Los Cabos Nightlife
Los Cabos comes alive when the sun sets, with a nightlife scene that’s as dynamic as its sun-soaked days. From buzzing beach bars to chic rooftop lounges, there's no shortage of spots to sip, dance, and socialize under the stars.
In Cabo San Lucas, the heart of the action beats strongest, with venues like the legendary Cabo Wabo Cantina and the iconic El Squid Roe. Since 1990, Cabo Wabo has drawn night owls for its live music and electrifying atmosphere, founded by rock legend Sammy Hagar. Meanwhile, El Squid Roe, a three-story nightclub in Cabo’s nightlife district, has drawn celebrities like Beyoncé and Drake, with its world-class sound system, mesmerizing lights, and liter-sized cocktails, for 35 years.
For a touch of sophistication, head to Jazz on the Rocks, where smooth tunes and stunning sunset views over the Sea of Cortés create the perfect backdrop for a laid-back evening.
Nightlife reaches new heights at Rooftop 360°, perched on the highest balcony in town. Located on the ninth floor of Corazón Cabo Resort & Spa, this upscale outdoor lounge invites guests to sip cocktails by the infinity pool while soaking in panoramic views of the Los Cabos coastline.
In San José del Cabo, the vibe is more relaxed but equally captivating. Baja Brewery combines artisanal beers with a rooftop view of the marina, making it an ideal spot to kick back with friends to enjoy live music.
Crania, an outdoor desert oasis in San José del Cabo, offers a unique fusion of music, art, and sustainability. By day, it's a tranquil space, but by night, Crania transforms into a pulsating venue for curated DJ sets and handcrafted cocktails at their Desert Bar, which celebrates Mexican heritage with locally sourced ingredients.
Nearby, the Dalton Gin Bar provides a more intimate experience with stunning rooftop views of San José del Cabo’s historic center. Specializing in gin-based craft cocktails, this rooftop hotspot features live music and nightly drink specials, making it the perfect place to catch the sunset while enjoying inventive mixology.
Partygoers with a sweet tooth must visit Materia Pastry Boutique. Open late into the night, this new gem by Chef Ángel Betancourt serves desserts that are works of art, pairing them with fruit- and flower-infused liqueurs for a decadent end to the evening.
For a dose of daytime fun, book a private cabana at Corazón Beach Club and spend the day sipping specialty drinks on the luxury resort’s swimmable beach. Mango Deck delivers a more laidback beachfront setting complete with frosty cocktails and unbeatable views of Lover’s Beach and El Arco.
