According to the U.S. Department of State, Baja California Sur (which includes Cabo San Lucas and San José del Cabo) is currently rated Level 2: Exercise Increased Caution, the same category as France, Spain, and the United Kingdom. The current advisory has been in place since August 12, 2025, and there have been no changes or new warnings issued for Los Cabos since that update. Importantly, there are no travel restrictions for U.S. government employees in this region, which the State Department typically uses as an indicator of stable safety conditions in key tourist zones.

Popular areas like the marina, San José’s Gallery District, and local beaches are operating normally with strong security presence for peace of mind, and the few negative reports mostly relate to pushy vendors rather than safety issues.
