The 8 most Instagrammable places in Los Cabos
Trips20/11/2025Los Cabos and its surroundings offer impressive settings to take fantastic photos worthy of posting on your Instagram account, where you can capture natural landscapes, wildlife, architecture, and the culture of the region.
Prepare your smartphone or favorite camera with enough memory so that, during your next vacation, you can get the best shots for your profile. Here is a guide to the places you cannot miss during your vacation in Los Cabos:
1. Whale Watching
Every year, thousands of tourists flock to this area of the Pacific to observe the majestic arrival of the whales, mainly during the months of December to April. To do this, you must take a tour in one of the small boats that depart from the marina, which will take you to see these giants of the ocean up close.
Tip: Bring a protective bag for your camera or cell phone to prevent damage in case the whales splash water; this way, you can have your equipment ready at all times without worry.
2. The Arch of Cabo San Lucas
It is probably one of the most photographed areas in Los Cabos, so a touch of creativity will be necessary to take an uncommon photograph. To achieve this, you can choose to take a tour at sunrise or bring a waterproof camera to take shots from different angles than those obtained from the boat.
Depending on the tide and the time of year, you will see a spectacular mix of colors on the rocks, the sand, and the sea. Complete your photo tour by visiting Lover's Beach, a magical place among the rocks that can only be accessed by sea.
3. Art Walk in San José del Cabo
If art is your thing, don't forget to visit Plaza Mijares and the Gallery District in San José del Cabo, as you will find bohemian streets with various art galleries, as well as local vendors with picturesque crafts. This is an excellent option to connect and capture shots of the local culture.
Tip: Between the months of November and June, the famous San José del Cabo Art Walk takes place, which features special events at different galleries in the area.
4. Camel Safari
You can explore the Baja California desert on the back of a camel; an unusual experience where the dromedaries pose with you in the desert landscapes with cacti and endemic flora of the region. If you have filters for your camera lens, bring them, as direct sunlight can make some of your shots difficult.
How much does the camel ride in Los Cabos cost? The average cost is around $80 USD for adults and $55 USD for children.
5. Beaches of Los Cabos
The sunrises and sunsets on the beaches of Los Cabos will frame incredible photos, where the classic images of you enjoying a good margarita or your favorite cocktail by the sea cannot be missing. The following are some of the most Instagrammable beaches due to their landscapes:
- El Médano Beach
- Chileno Beach
- Lover's Beach
- Divorce Beach
Tip: Lover's Beach and Divorce Beach are connected within a small rocky area; the former has very calm waters, while the latter has rough waves where swimming is not allowed under any circumstances.
6. San José del Cabo Bird Sanctuary
This natural oasis is home to a large number of bird species, as well as fish and reptiles. Here you can take photographs of more than 250 bird species such as black-crowned night herons, egrets, pelicans, frigatebirds, or red-tailed hawks. Additionally, a plus for capturing good images is that you can take the tour through interactive trails or aboard a kayak.
7. Cabo Pulmo National Park
Just an hour away, on the outskirts of Los Cabos, you will find this national park full of impressive natural landscapes and a wide variety of wildlife. It is not for nothing that this natural jewel is known worldwide as "the aquarium of the world."
It is recommended that you bring a waterproof camera, such as a GoPro, to try snorkeling or scuba diving and take spectacular photos in one of the largest and oldest coral reefs in the world.
