Blog Destination Which is Better: Los Cabos or La Paz?

If you’re planning a trip to Baja California Sur, you may find yourself wondering which destination to choose and while both offer unique experiences, let’s dive into what each location has to offer to help you decide.

Cabo San Lucas is a well-known travel spot in Mexico, but La Paz Mexico, just beyond Los Cabos, is also gaining popularity. As the state capital and one of the largest cities, La Paz offers a unique experience. When choosing between La Paz and Los Cabos, consider transportation. 

Los Cabos International Airport has numerous direct flights from North America, making it convenient for quick getaways. While La Paz has an airport, it has fewer international flights, often requiring a stop in Los Cabos. For ease and better flight deals, Los Cabos might be the better option.
