Very relaxed area, try and get there early to get yourself a palapas, or whatever you call it, for shade. I recommend you take the taxi or just drive here if you have a car. **The only thing is there are red ants in the sand so be careful, but they dont really bother you. Snorkeling is great! Make sure... More

The snorkeling here is good. It's very safe to swim here as well.. the currents are mild. The bathrooms are a bit sketchy, but at least there IS a bathroom! There are limited facilities and you should bring your own towels, drinks etc.. It's only a 15 minute drive from downtown Cabo or San Jose Del Cabo and you can... More

Easy to find on your way to / from San Jose Del Cabo. Restrooms, plenty of parking. Soft sand (which isn't the case at all of the beaches). Loved it! More

Loved the fact that if you walk a little ways, you have your own secluded spot on the beach. However, we didn't like all the peddlers who constantly barrage you with stuff to buy. More

After seeing such good reviews on Trip Advisor, we decided to take our group of 7 adults and 5 kids under age 6 to Chileno. The drive from Cabo San Lucas was short (15-20 minutes), the exit from the highway is clearly marked, and the access to the beach from the fenced and guarded parking lot was easy via a... More
