Averaged from the last five years of October readings — a guide to what to expect, not a forecast for a particular sailing.
Cabo San Lucas sits at the tip of the Baja Peninsula, where the desert runs straight into the sea and the granite arch of El Arco marks the meeting of the Pacific and the Sea of Cortez. It is a standard stop on Mexican Riviera itineraries, with dry sunshine most of the year, sport-fishing charters, and a marina lined with restaurants and beach clubs.
Cabo San Lucas in October is warm and sunny, with average highs around 89°F and lows that rarely dip below 69°F. Rain is uncommon, with only about 3 rainy days expected across the month, ideal for beach days and shore excursions. Cooling slightly, hurricane risk dropping
Crowds are moderate in October, making it a good balance between availability and weather. Pack reef-safe SPF 50+ sunscreen, a hat, and breathable fabrics. The sun at 89°F is intense, especially near the water.
