Water temps in Baja Sur... Pacific Ocean side is warm enough for shorts/rashguard except in dead of winter (Jan-Feb), and late MAY and early JUNE when water temps drop dramatically due to Aleutian Current. 3/2 fullsuit NICE for these 2 months. RE: Gulf/Sea of Cortez... Shorts/rashguard OK almost year around, but a 1 to 2mm jacket cuts the wind nicely when it blows cold off the desert.
Monuments kicks A**!!! Went there when our cruise ship ported at Cabo. Took a water taxi there for $20 round trip. All of Cabo was flat that day but iMonuments was ripping.Yes it is a little sketchy, but that is what makes it sooo much fun! Got More...
Baja California Sur
Isn't this actually called Baja California Sur even by the locals? And no it isn't some USA thing. Even California is a SPANISH name. I was told Baja Sur was an awesome place to surf. Went to southern Mexico on vacation and asked about it, and I was promptly ridiculed for being an idiot American and told it is Baja California Sur. So for accuracy, and ease of finding the place, maybe it would be better to correct it? Just saying...

Do I need a car?
If your staying in Cabo you can get the bus out to a couple of spots quite easily, so long as your happy to walk a bit. It would probably be an idea to get a car for a few days to get away from the crowds. Remember, Cabo is America-on-sea, so there are drunken idiots everywhere. That said, I had a great time.
