Is Cabo safe?

Yes, Cabo is a safe destination. Just like the US has different states, each with their own capital, politics, and attractions, so does Mexico, and what you hear on the news about one state or area of Mexico often doesn’t apply to the whole country just like it wouldn’t in the US. 

There are endless data points and statistics about the safety of Cabo and a variety of personal experiences can be found on social media expressing varying opinions. The US and Mexico are ranked similarly on the global peace index and Cabo is ranked the fourth safest city in Mexico, ahead of other popular destinations such as Cancun, Puerto Vallarta, and Mexico City. 

Ultimately, travelers should take standard precautions as they should while visiting any city and personal responsibility plays a major role in your experience. Pay attention to current events and travel advisories and enjoy this beautiful area!
