What to Do in Los Cabos: The Ultimate Post-Wedding Guide by a Destination Photographer in 2025
As a destination wedding photographer, I know Los Cabos holds magic beyond your wedding day. I've witnessed countless couples transform their destination wedding into an adventure that stretches far past the "I dos."
Water Activities That Will Make Your Heart Race
The ocean calls to newlyweds in Los Cabos with promises of shared thrills. Many of my clients start their post-wedding adventures by booking a private yacht charter around the famous Arch of Cabo San Lucas.
I recommend scheduling your excursion during sunset when the sky paints itself in wedding-worthy colors. Snorkel in Chileno Bay, where schools of tropical fish dart beneath you, or watch humpback whales breach the surface during migration season from December to April.
Beach Hopping for the Perfect Honeymoon Photos
Trust me - each beach in Los Cabos tells its own story through my lens. Lover's Beach beckons couples with its isolation and backdrop of rocks that frame intimate moments.
Santa Maria Beach offers the clearest waters I've photographed in all of Mexico, perfect for swimming and capturing underwater moments. Pack your gear early and claim your spot at Medano Beach, where the buzz of beach clubs and water sports creates an energetic vibe.
Food Adventures That Spice Up Your First Days as Newlyweds
Los Cabos has transformed me from a photographer into a food enthusiast. The farm-to-table movement thrives here, with Flora Farms leading the charge through its organic field-to-fork experience.
Hit the streets of San Jose del Cabo's Art District on Thursday nights for the Art Walk, where local food vendors serve authentic Mexican street food. It’s a great time to share tacos and discover mezcal bars tucked into historic buildings.
Cultural Immersion in San Jose del Cabo
The historic district pulses with culture that my camera can't resist. Walking tours through the colonial streets reveal stories etched in architecture and local artisan workshops.
Book a cooking class with a local chef, they're filled with laughter and learning. You'll master traditional recipes while sipping local wines, creating memories that taste as good as they look in photos.
Adventure Seeking in the Desert Landscape
The contrast between desert and sea creates opportunities for remarkable experiences. ATV tours through the Baja desert reveal hidden canyons and views that most tourists miss.
Camel rides at sunset provide unexpected photo opportunities that always surprise my couples. The desert holds secrets that only adventure seekers find, from hidden hot springs to mountain biking trails through cacti forests.
Spa Experiences
After the wedding whirlwind, couples need time to decompress. Los Cabos spas incorporate local ingredients and traditional Mexican healing practices into their treatments. Book a couples massage in an outdoor palapa, where ocean breezes carry away your stress.
Nightlife That Keeps the Celebration Going
The party doesn't end with your reception in Los Cabos. Cabo San Lucas Marina comes alive at night with music pouring from bars and restaurants onto moonlit streets.
Mix with locals at La Paz's speakeasies or dance until sunrise at Cabo Wabo. These vibrant nights create unique moments - let loose and celebrate your new chapter.
Sports and Recreation
World-class golf courses stretch along the coastline, challenging players with ocean views that distract from their swing. Sport fishing charters leave early morning, promising encounters with marlin and dorado. Whether you're experts or beginners, Los Cabos offers adventures that suit every skill level.
Sunset Spots That Will Take Your Breath Away
The Sea of Cortez meets the Pacific Ocean in a display that photographers dream about. Mount Solmar provides a hiking challenge with rewards of panoramic views over both bodies of water.
Schedule a sunset cruise to El Arco, where the changing light creates natural frames for photos. These golden hour moments remain some of my favorite times to capture newlyweds in their element.
Art and Shopping in the Gallery District
Thursday night art walks showcase local talent and provide opportunities to collect unique pieces for your new home together. I always tell my couples to leave room in their suitcase for handmade treasures.
Visit local galleries and boutiques where artists work with traditional Mexican techniques. The authentic craftsmanship and contemporary interpretations make for meaningful souvenirs of your time here.

Your wedding marks just the beginning of your Los Cabos story. As someone who has documented countless love stories here, I know each couple discovers their own unique way to experience this paradise.
