Médano Riu Palace Los Cabos was first awarded Blue Flag status in 2018 and is a Blue Flag Beach for the 2023 season.*
Playa Médano is a wide sandy beach located in downtown Los Cabos. The beach features soft sand and calm waters, and its central location means there are many food vendors, bars, and restaurants. The beach is patrolled by lifeguards as well. Snorkelling is another popular activity at the beach due to the clear blue waters. This section of the beach is next to the Riu Palace Los Cabos Hotel just east of downtown Los Cabos.
*A Blue Flag beach is one that meets strict water quality and safety criteria. These beaches are certified annually as being clean, accessible, eco-friendly, and having great water quality!
