Opening
A travel article has a publication date. A trip has an actual date.
Entry rules, travel advisories, airport procedures, weather, tropical systems, beach conditions, venue hours, age rules, reservation terms, and entertainment schedules can change between them.
Use this page to reach the source that controls or publishes the current information. The Cabo Lifestyle provides context; it does not replace government, airport, airline, property, lifeguard, venue, or provider instructions.
United States travel advisories
Source: U.S. Department of State
Use for: Current U.S. government advisory language and state-specific information for Mexico
URL: Official source
Do not rely on a tourism-site paraphrase when exact current U.S. advisory wording matters.
Mexican immigration and entry information
Source: Instituto Nacional de Migración
Use for: Current Mexican immigration forms and official entry information
URL: Official source
Entry requirements depend on the traveler. The site does not provide individualized immigration or legal advice and does not promise entry.
Los Cabos International Airport
Source: Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico
Use for: Current SJD airport and terminal information
URL: Official source
Also confirm current information with the airline.
Official destination information
Source: Los Cabos Tourism Board
Use for: Destination geography, visitor information, beaches, transportation, weather context, events, and official destination resources
URLs:
- Places to visit: Official source
- Tourist Corridor: Official source
- Airports: Official source
- Transportation: Official source
- Weather: Official source
- Médano Beach: Official source
- Swimming and safety: Official source
- Whale watching: Official source
The Tourism Board is an official destination-marketing source. Attribute promotional positioning rather than presenting it as independent evaluation.
Tropical weather
Source: NOAA National Hurricane Center
Use for: Eastern Pacific tropical-weather outlooks, advisories, storm information, and climatology
URL: Official source
Seasonal reference: Official source
The Eastern Pacific hurricane season officially runs from May 15 through November 30. A seasonal window does not predict the conditions of a particular trip.
Beach conditions
Use:
- Current posted flags and instructions
- Lifeguards and local authorities
- Property or beach staff for current access information
- Official destination sources for general context
The Cabo Lifestyle does not maintain a live beach-condition service and does not label any beach universally safe.
El Squid Roe
Official site: Official source
Use current official pages for:
- History and About: Official source
- FAQ, age, ID, and general guidance: Official source
- Contact, address, and operating information: Official source
- Spring Break programming: Official source
- Press and media page: Official source
Official pages currently conflict on some dress guidance and operating-entity language. The publication must show the conflict or state that the point is unresolved rather than silently selecting one version.
Mango Deck
Official site: Official source
Use for current venue description, reservation flow, events, and operating information. The official venue site and Tourism Board have displayed conflicting closing hours. State the source conflict and avoid publishing a definitive closing time until a current source resolves it.
The Office on the Beach
Official site: Official source
- History: Official source
- Reservations and current published hours: Official source
- Entertainment: Official source
Performers, times, reservations, availability, and operating hours are volatile. Check the venue's current pages.
Accessibility
For site accessibility standards:
Source: W3C Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.2
URL: Official source
For a venue or property, contact the actual operator and ask about the specific route, restroom, seating, entrance, vehicle, beach, or service required. Do not infer accessibility from a photograph or broad marketing statement.
Commercial disclosure and advertising standards
Source: U.S. Federal Trade Commission
Native advertising guide: Official source
Commercial arrangements must be disclosed clearly and close to the endorsement. The launch edition activates no booking, affiliate, sponsorship, newsletter, advertising, or lead-generation system.
Search and publication quality
Source: Google Search Central
People-first content guidance: Official source
The publication uses these principles to reinforce original reporting, clear authorship, actual field-observed experience where claimed, and substantial value beyond rewriting other sites.
How dates work on this site
- Published: first public publication date
- Updated: date of material editorial work
- Last verified: date the named sources were actually checked
- Field-observation date: date or period the publication documented a dated observation
These dates are not interchangeable.
Correction route
See CORRECTIONS AND UPDATE REQUESTS if a source changed, a page is stale, a venue rule is inaccurate, or an evidence label does not match the material.
Calls to action
Source notes
This route is the publication's source directory. Every linked organization controls only the subjects within its authority or operating role. A destination-marketing source does not replace a government advisory, an airport operator does not control immigration rules, and a business's own page does not become an independent review.
Freshness control
Check all external links monthly. Check travel advisory, entry, weather, airport, age, hours, and reservation source blocks every 30 days. Update a displayed checked date only after a real review.
