August in Cabo — Warm, Humid, and Full of Life 

August marks the beginning of Cabo’s wet season, typically lasting through September. While it brings more humidity and warmth, it also brings beauty. The desert greens up, flowers bloom, and the sunsets turn even more vivid. 

During the day, you’ll want the comfort of air conditioning, but early mornings and evenings are ideal for outdoor dining or walks along the beach.
