Your transfer to Costa Palmas and the East Cape

Costa Palmas is the resort and residential development on the East Cape, up the Sea of Cortez coast near La Ribera — home to the Four Seasons and Amanvari. It is roughly 75 kilometres from the SJD terminal, well past the Los Cabos hotel zones, and it is the point at which "airport transfer" stops being a hop and becomes a real drive that you want settled in advance.

What you get for the extra distance is the reason people come: the East Cape has calm, genuinely swimmable water — this is the Sea of Cortez, not the Pacific — a marina, a golf course and almost none of the density of the Corridor. What you give up is spontaneity. There is no walking to dinner somewhere else and no quick taxi back from Cabo San Lucas at midnight, so the return leg and any day trips are worth booking at the same time as the arrival rather than improvising them from the property.

The road is Highway 1 north and then the turn toward La Ribera, and the last stretch is the part worth flagging. Send the exact property and, for residences, the gate instructions and the name the reservation is under — the developments here have guest lists like the ones in Cabo San Lucas, and this is not a place where you want to be sorting that out an hour past dark.

FAQs about your Costa Palmas transportation

How far is Costa Palmas from Los Cabos Airport?

About 75 km (47 miles) north along the Sea of Cortez coast, past the Los Cabos hotel zones and toward La Ribera.

Is the water swimmable there?

Yes — this is the Sea of Cortez side, and the East Cape is known for calm water, which is a real difference from the Pacific beaches past Cabo San Lucas.

Should we book the return trip too?

For this distance, yes. There is no quick taxi back to the airport from the East Cape, and a departure at this range needs to be scheduled around your flight rather than found on the day.
