In the heart of Los Cabos, Baja California Sur, there is a hidden gem that challenges the peace of its neighbor, Playa del Amor. It is the one and only Playa del Divorcio.

This beach is famous not only due to its impressive natural beauty, but also its heavy swell and its reputation as one of the most dangerous beaches in the region. It is currently embraced by the imposing Pacific Ocean making it a place full of high tides and turbulent waves, which make it impossible for people to swim or do any kind of aquatic activities.

The name Playa del Divorcio (Divorce Beach) is not a coincidence. Humorously, it was given this name to contrast it with the peace and joy of Playa del Amor (Love Beach). While the latter is a shelter of peace, Playa del Divorcio represents wilderness, danger, and madness. This contrast makes both beaches fascinating destinations for tourists who are looking to experience the natural extremes at Los Cabos.

Access and Experience

The only way to get to Playa del Divorcio is by boat. Many tours to the iconic Arch of Cabo San Lucas include a quick stop at this beach, allowing visitors to enjoy its beauty up close. Depending on the season and tide, boats may approach close enough so that tourists can briefly land, take pictures, and enjoy the landscape. Opportunities to capture the essence of this beach are infinite, as you can take a selfie or a panoramic photo of its golden sands and its imposing rocky formations.

The force of the open sea in this area cannot be underestimated and safety must always be a priority.

Playa del Divorcio is an example of the natural contrasts that make of Los Cabos a unique and attractive destination. Its beauty and wild environment offer a unique experience that perfectly contemplates the peace found at Playa del Amor.
