Bulnes Sport Fishing Tournament

April 10th and 11th

For those seeking pure excitement, sport fishing is the undisputed star of the season. One of the most anticipated moments for the community is the 4th Bulnes Fishing Tournament, held at the Cabo San Lucas marina.

This tournament is a charity event that brings together local families and international visitors in a competition full of tradition and respect for the sea. It is the perfect opportunity to see impressive specimens of dorado and wahoo up close while enjoying the festive atmosphere on the boardwalk. Participating or simply being a spectator at the weigh-in is an experience that captures the nautical essence of Los Cabos.

Oyster Festival in San José

April 18th

If you are a food lover, this is a mandatory appointment. San José del Cabo dresses up to celebrate this marine delicacy at the famous Oyster Festival. Here, the freshness of the Pacific arrives directly to your plate in a sophisticated yet relaxed atmosphere.

You can taste fresh varieties and preparations by local chefs that are true culinary works of art. Do not forget to pair your oysters with a crisp, cold white wine from the region for a complete sensory experience.

Dos Mares 500 Off-Road Race

If you prefer speed on solid ground, the legendary Dos Mares 500 race usually takes place toward the end of the month. This rally connects San José del Cabo with La Paz in a display of engineering that will make you vibrate. The energy felt at the checkpoints and the finish line is contagious, making it one of the Los Cabos events in April 2026 that most attracts fans of motorsports and extreme adventure.

Wine and Music Night

April 25th

The ultimate winning combination: imagine live jazz or contemporary rhythms under the stars of San José del Cabo, accompanied by the best Mexican wine labels.

This event is ideal for couples or groups of friends looking for a cultural evening. The intimate atmosphere and the talent of local musicians create the perfect setting to celebrate life in paradise. It is time to relax and let the musical notes blend with the sound of the ocean in the distance.

ArtWalk and Folklore in the Plaza

Walking through the cobblestone streets of San José is a pleasure in itself, but during April, the experience becomes magical with these two cultural options:

• ArtWalk in San José (Every Thursday): The Art District opens its doors wide. In April, galleries often present special spring exhibitions, taking advantage of the golden afternoon light that so greatly inspires artists.
• Viva La Plaza in Cabo San Lucas (Fridays in April): Held at Plaza Amelia Wilkes, this program offers a window into local crafts and folklore. It is the ideal place to buy that unique piece of ceramics or jewelry to remind you of your stay with us.

Whale Season Closing and Wellness

We cannot forget that April marks the end of one of the most moving seasons: whale watching. Although most have already begun their journey north, it is still possible to see the last few whales during the first days of the month. A private yacht tour is the best way to say goodbye to them.

Additionally, for wellness enthusiasts, various points across the city organize sunrise yoga sessions and mindfulness events. It is the perfect time to renew body and mind before summer arrives, taking advantage of April’s weather—the most balanced of the year.
