I went to Cancun long time ago when I was a kid, and to Cabo last year just before the pandemic. While I can't remember a lot about Cancun, I'd say it really depends on what you are looking for, because they are both REALLY different from one another. Cabo is more like a Tuscan or Mediterranean vibe, like something between California, Italy and Mexico, with the surrounding deserts, mountains and rock formations creating amazing landscapes that really give you that charming mediterranean vibes. It's all about gorgeous food, good local wine, amazing seafood and very romantic beaches to discover in the surroundings, riding horses or camels with no buildings or resorts around, not even civilization, just miles and miles of deserts and the coast. Cancun in the other hand is that classic Caribbean paradise feeling, with white sands, turquoise water, palm trees, lagoons and a humid and tropical weather the whole year round. More for party and nightlife I'd say, tons of archeological sites and jungles to explore, amazing cenotes and beautiful coral reefs to enjoy scuba diving. Also, very authentic and unique colonial towns and cities to have a pure Mexican experiencie just a couple of hours away. I think Cabo is for a more romantic or "intimate" experience, and Cancun is more for party, celebration and fun. So, depends on what you are looking for.

Cabo and Cancuns downtowns are pretty much the same. They have the same clubs and bars too like Senor Frogs and Monkey bar. And both of them have intimate areas too is you drive half an hour away. It's like a brother and sister. You can't really go wrong with either. I'd say go to the one that's closest to where you live so you have a shorter flight.

Having said that, I love the desert ruggedness of Cabo and those rock formations are stunners. Question for you and your subscribers please: Which resort in Cancun offers an all-inclusive experience (those in-room bottle dispensers have me intrigued LOL !) but are geared toward a middle-age relaxed crowd ?

Done several beaches between Cabo and San Jose del Cabo. Water warm, clear, amazingly visible 60-100 ft out. I followed a pufferfish for 10 minutes and the trick is to attract fish... tortillas, peas. Imagine hundreds of fish swimming next to you in circles as you hand feed them in crystal clear warm water.

I have been going to Cabo every year for 30 years. I have been to Cancun twice. The scuba diving in Cancun is much better than Cabo, with much clear water and beautiful hard coral reefs. Diving the inland Cenotes is absolutely amazing. Cabo has no hard coral, just soft fan coral. The Sea of Cortez causes the water in Cabo to have less transparency. The dining in Cabo is first-rate due to importing chefs from around the world....but you pay dearly for this. I agree, the resorts in Cabo are much newer than Cancun and the quality is top-notch. Cabo is much less humid than Cancun. A chilled Corona with lime is enjoyable in either location.

Great video. One thing you did not really stress is the weather which for most people can easily make or break a great time. Cancun is hot and humid. Cabo is generally much nicer temperature. Cancun has 53 inches of rain a year where Cabo has 7. So that means seven or more times more likely to get rained out in Cancun. Cancun has hurricane season where Cabo has virtually no chance of a hurricane. Cancun has up to six months a year of seaweed season, sargassum is nasty to swim in and smells bad. Cabo does not have that problem. That said, I would choose Cancun if you don't mind weather and smelly seaweed or you can pick that sweet-spot weather time between hot humidity and hurricane season.

Nice video although in the 1960s these destinations were primarily fishing villages and not until the 1970s when the Mexican government invested And opened up Cabo and Cancun did they begin to take off to tourism. You have great points of comparison especially the location, obviously from the west coast it’s Cabo and East coast and southeast, Cancun would be a shorter distance. It’s a hard decision, I mean do people want to swim in cenotes and visit Mayan ruins in Cancun or would they rather go whale watching and world class fishing in Cabo. In my opinion these two destinations are top 5 in all of the Americas (North, Central, South).

Thank you. I think you described the differences quite well. Cancun is more commercialized and feels more crowded, definitely livelier. But I prefer Cabo. I love the vibe, the resorts along Medano Beach, contrasted to a small town, easy to walk, with some great open air restaurants (Edith's, Peacock's, the restaurants around the marina, and I've never had a bad time at the Office on the beach). Cabo San Lucas has much more to offer (highly recommend the Caborey sunset dinner cruise). But there are also plenty of "party" spots (Mango Deck), and Happy Ending Cantina is without question the best bar in the world! I especially like the contrast between being IN TOWN along Medano Beach and the Sea of Cortez, and "the QUIET SIDE" across the mountain on the Pacific side and (as you mention), San Jose del Cabo. Great video. More, more, more please.

Just booked this resort for my stay in San Jose Del Cabo. I can only stand to be on a beach so long, so not a deal breaker for me not being able to swim in the ocean. Might look for a smaller beach to get in the water while there. Looking forward to the swim out suite and relaxation. Stayed at a Secrets in Cancun and really enjoyed it. Thanks for the great video.

So we went to riu palace peninsula in Cancun last dec, and the resort was beautiful ! It was huge! The first 2 days the water was blue and clear, then our last 8 days it’s rained hard everyday and it just turned out to be a disaster. So we tried Cabo a few months ago and stayed at the Riu palace, which was also a gigantic resort! We went during the pandemic so things were alittle different but the weather was much nicer! I know why you did this video because everyone is either going to Cancun or Cabo right now just to get away!

In have only been to Cancun. It is beautiful there but a relaxing family vacation it was not. It feels like you get hassled by every merchant, restauranteur, and street vendor as you walk by. There are multitudes of rifle carrying police and security guards everywhere and I was always keeping an eye on my family members. It came to the point that just staying at the resort was most relaxing which was a shame because part of the joy of traveling is taking in the experience of the local people and culture. Cancun was far more expensive than I thought.

Does Cancun still have all the weed crap washing up on shore every morning? When we went there literally nobody used the beach for several miles. Crews had a hard time keeping up with it daily, and it felt gross and smelled awful.

If you're going off beaches and water it's not even close Cancun by a mile. I definitely don't remember white sand in Cabo lol. For sure white sand in cancun also clearer water and much warmer. Cabo does win in regards to it's drier ie not so much humidity but it's still crazy warm. Also right in the heart of cabo the waves are pretty strong and jelly fish from time to time yaaaa

Easy. Both are great places. Have kids? Go to cancun because there are more to do activities. Cabo is more for adults, although, both have family friendly resorts.

Wondering if it is safe to travel there outside the resort in Cancun .? Health wise ( COVID19) and safety wise like assault getting rob at night in down town ,

In Cancun, much like any other large city, if you are NOT in the bad part of town at 3AM, you will be fine!! the resorts are limited currently to 60% of capacity, and masks are REQUIRED except in the pool, and while eating in restaurants....so you are as safe AS YOU CAN REASONABLY BE

there's just something about Cabo. You'd think that when you hear the words "unswimmable beaches" it would be a deal breaker. But as Sammy Hagar said, "go there once, you'll be there twice". So...Cancun for the beach and Cabo for everything else. The dry climate in Cabo is one of the big features for my wife and I.

I've been to both recently.....And while I'll say that I enjoyed the resorts in Cancun more, I enjoy Cabo more as a destination. So if I just want to get way and do nothing for 4-5 Days.......Cancun. If I want to spend more time and do some adventures....Cabo.

Cabo is better. It’s a 4 hour direct flight from my city and Cancun is about 6 hours after a connector flight. Easy choice. Also we were ripped off on a snorkling excursion in Cancun so that left a bad taste. I also prefer the desert surroundings of Cabo.
