Matt Lindsay’s Cabo
Welcome to San Jose del Cabo, where the desert meets the sea and perfect waves await.
Why surf Cabo?
The tip of the Baja Peninsula sticks its chin out into the Pacific, ready for any swell that comes its way. Home to too many good waves to name (and some too good to advertise) this stunning desert coastline has something for everyone. A full spectrum of wave options, from shallow reefs to playful beach breaks, along with warm water year-round and minimal crowds make it a gem hidden amid one of the Western Hemisphere’s top vacation spots.
The Pro's Pro
When you’ve got the credentials of having coached numerous world champs and current WSL surfers, the surf world is your oyster, literally. Matt spent years traveling the world as an international surf guide to celebs and A-listers and has surfed most of the world’s premier waves. After all of that traveling, he chose Cabo as his place to call home thanks to its consistently good waves and laid back vibe.
“We absolutely loved surfing with Matt. He helped us maximize our time in Mexico by showing us the best local spots and gave us killer tips to up our surfing game... We are so coming back and stoked to have met a new friend.”
