Where would U spend December - Los Barriles, Loreto or Todos Santos?
Having a tough time deciding between the three. We enjoy shore fishing, nice beaches, charter fishing, golf, few kids. Flying into Cabo is non-stop. Loreto would have us stopping in LAX
I keep reading about the killer winds in Los Barriles. Would T. Santos and Loreto have similar winds? We're from WA coast, so we're use to wind. Just don't want to be freezin' cold while vacationing.
Thanks much for any and all suggestions.

December is prime fishing in Cabo. Why go to Loreto (a bit far north and possibly cold and windy), or Los Barriles (good season but possible wind), or Todos Santos (no boats but good weather) when you could stay in Cabo, fish there, rent a car, and tour the whole tip?
Gotta agree with Chuck. Fish with Eric Brictson at gordo banks pangas. Good prices and december on the gordos, iman or san luis banks should get you some great results. Golf is close too.
Cabo certainly is a possibility. We loved it 15 years ago, but hated it two years ago. We use to fish with Umberto (Beto Nunez) when he was a struggling skipper. We usually go for small- scale, beachfront, reasonably priced accommodations. The type where we can walk for groceries and cook in our low-key rental (not resort hotel type). And most importantly, getting up early to cast a line off the beach. Anything like that in Cabo?
Cabo or SJDC sounds like the place for you in Dec. A buddy of mine like's Presidente? Fishes the beach there & you can charter in Cabo or SJDC.
East Cape is windy in Dec but there are some calm days & surf fishing is great.
Thanks guys for the information. I'll check on SJDC. As far as wind in Los Barriles - how bad does it get? We went for a walk this morning at the beach here in Westport, and at times the wind would cause us to lean (~35-50 mph gusts). Between the hail and blowing sand, our faces took a beating, but that's just about standard for this time of year. We were actually walking on the primary dunes, so we were away from the beach, but still quite windy. We'll be in Los Barriles in a little less than a month, so we'll learn more. But I don't want to wait too long as the flights tend to book early for that timeframe. Thanks again!

The wind in Los Barriles gets bad. I pulled down a few years ago and planning on fishing everyday for two weeks and after having the first 3 days blowing 35+ and hating life, we picked up everything and went to Cabo and fished Gordo and Pacific for some amazing fish.
Stay in san jose..Lots and lots of golf courses..plenty to do for the family .
Fish out of puerto los cabos or palmilla or cabo.The east cape is abot 50 minutes away..Wind on the east cape is out of the north..And not every day or even all day...and this happens only during the winter months. Have fun.
You convinced me - it's a no to Loreto and Los Barriles. I've spent quite a bit of time today checking out San Jose Del Cabo rentals. Don't want anything mega-resort type. Small, beachfront, fishing.... So if you all have suggestions, I'd much appreciate it.
Thanks again!
