When visiting the
Beaches of Cabo remember:
1. There are no lifeguards here, not even at most hotel pools. So, try
not to swim alone as no big lifeguard hunk wearing red Speedos is
going to come to your rescue.
2. One won’t find a convenience store on every corner here, so bring
lots of sun block, sunglasses, water, snacks, bathroom tissue, film as
well as a beach umbrella, snorkeling gear, sand toys, etc.
3. Certain beaches have seas with severe undertows, dangerous
breakers, rip tides, or deep drop-offs close to shore. Pay attention
to any warning signs.
4. Remember that it’s illegal to drive on beaches in México.
Environmental protectionism is growing in countries all over the world
and one needs to be as sensitive here in México as in the USA. In
either country, a fuel spill from one’s boat or 4x4 on most beaches
can result in stiff fines.
5. Always remember that the beaches can be very dangerous even for the
best of swimmers and never turn your back on the ocean. Be sure to
check weather conditions, as safety changes with the weather.
Typically there are no lifeguards at the beaches. If you like to swim,
the pools at the hotels are the best bet for safety. |
