Santa Maria Beach (Playa Santa María)

Swimming: The calm and crystal-clear waters of the bay make it a safe haven for swimming, even for beginners and families with children. The gentle waves and absence of strong currents offer a relaxing swimming experience.

A sheltered, natural cove, the sands of its swimmable beaches rest between two large granite rocks that block the hard influence of the pounding surf swell and constant winds, making it a prime-time destination for tourists looking to safely go swimming, snorkeling, and diving.

Don't Take Risks In Cabo. Cabo is one of the safest beach destinations, however you shouldn't let your guard down. Don't be flashy with your valuables, stay on populated and well-lit streets in the evening and don't take any risks while traveling, especially with strangers.

Santa Maria Beach is on the coastal corridor running between Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo. Drive north from the heart of Cabo for 7.5 miles (12 kilometers) to get here in roughly 15 minutes.
