Swim at Your Own Risk: Specific Los Cabos Beaches Under Advisory
Are you planning a dip in the ocean this week? Think twice before you hit the water at some of Los Cabos' most popular beaches. Health authorities have issued a specific advisory, warning tourists and locals to avoid swimming at certain urban spots due to post-storm sediment runoff.
The Problem: Post-Storm Sediment Runoff
Los Cabos' geography is unique, with dry riverbeds (arroyos) that suddenly flash-flood when heavy rainfall hits. This surge picks up sediment, debris, and urban runoff, contaminating the water near the main runoff points.
The Specific Beaches Under Advisory
- Cabo San Lucas:
- El Médano (Medano Beach): The city's most popular beach, lined with resorts and beach clubs.
- La Empacadora
- Ocho Cascadas
- San José del Cabo:
- Costa Azul: A favorite among surfers.
- The Main Hotel Zone Beach
- La Playita
The advisory also extends north to La Paz, covering the stretch between El Comitán and El Caimancito.
