Is Cabo worth going if you’re vegan?
Cabo is a beautiful place, with stunning beaches, and many things to do. But when it comes to food for vegans, I wouldn’t rate it as my top destination. The very few all vegan restaurants are doing amazing and the restaurants with vegan options make it worthwhile with the dishes they create but personally, I would prefer to travel to other parts of Mexico where there’s even more vegan friendly restaurants.
But if you are going to Los Cabos, here’s places you should have at the top of your list if you’re vegan. A mix of taquerias, farm-to-table, cafes, and high end restaurants that are worth checking out!
