MEXICAN INDEPENDENCE DAY IN LOS CABOS: WHERE TO CELEBRATE “EL GRITO” AND WHERE TO STAY
September 04 2026
Destinations Travel Tips 
Los Cabos is a destination where the desert meets the sea. Its landscapes, beaches, cuisine, and activities provide a unique travel experience, whether you visit as a couple, with friends, or as a family. In September, the plazas and streets of San José del Cabo and Cabo San Lucas fill with music, color, and Mexican pride in celebration of Mexican Independence.
Here you will find three must-see places to visit in Los Cabos, where to celebrate El Grito, and one place to stay during your trip.
Los Cabos: three must-see places
The Arch of Cabo San Lucas. This rock formation is the most recognizable landmark in Los Cabos. It is located at the southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula, where the Pacific Ocean meets the Sea of Cortez.
To get there, take a boat from the Cabo San Lucas Marina. Along the way, you can see sea lion colonies and visit Lover’s Beach.
Cabo Pulmo National Park. This marine reserve is located on the coast of the Sea of Cortez and is home to one of North America’s most important coral reefs, as well as more than 800 species of marine flora and fauna.
Snorkeling and scuba diving are two of the most popular ways to explore its waters and observe fish, sea turtles, manta rays, and other species.
Historic Downtown San José del Cabo. Stroll through its streets, art galleries, and colonial-style buildings to discover a quieter, more cultural side of the destination. Here you will find restaurants, shops, and spaces showcasing the work of local artists.
In the afternoon, visit the Art District, explore its galleries, and end your tour by enjoying the cuisine of Baja California Sur.
Where to celebrate “El Grito” in Los Cabos?
Mexico’s Independence Celebration traditionally takes place at Plaza Mijares in downtown San José del Cabo. Every September 15, residents and visitors enjoy arts and cultural activities before the civic ceremony held at City Hall.
The festive atmosphere, local cuisine, and Mexican pride make this a celebration you will not want to miss.
