La Paz and Los Cabos have really different climates. Because La Paz is in the southern end of the Sonoran Desert, it is usually 10 degrees warmer than in Los Cabos. As soon you leave La Paz, you start entering the tropics and the impoverished tropical rainforest. This is why it’s a lot cooler in Los Cabos than in La Paz in the summertime.
La Paz is one of the hottest places in Mexico, with Cabo Pulmo (where I live, on the east side of the Cape, between Los Cabos and La Paz) 10 degrees behind it. When I was in Cabo Pulmo, the temperature was in the mid 80s Fahrenheit most of the time. There was a cool breeze from the ocean, which was very pleasant.
The “unbearable season” in Los Cabos falls between August and September. During these months, the temperature may be around 90 Fahrenheit. Humidity then comes in and makes the climate very uncomfortable.
When my family and I were in Cabo Pulmo all year, we only ever used air-conditioning for a total of a month out of an entire year. We were comfortable with that. However, if you’re living live in Cabo Pulmo, you tend to acclimatize to the temperature. That means if you flew in from the north, you will find it a little too warm.
In East Cape, the weather is more similar to Cabo than to La Paz in that it is much milder than Cabo. Los Cabos is mainly on the Sea of Cortez. If you go to the Pacific side from Cabo San Lucas, the climate is a whole lot different. There will be fog, and in June it’s like the climate in San Diego- so much cooler that you’ll want to put your jacket on.
The weather in the Cabo in East Cape is more temperate compared to the weather in La Paz. It’s a more comfortable climate without as much extremes except during the uncomfortable months of August to September. A switch is turned overnight, and on the very first day of October the climate becomes an incredible environment of really comfortably sleeping at night and warm at the day time. The ocean will then have a temperature of 85 Fahrenheit or more.
To sum it up, the climates in the Cabo Pulmo in East Cape, in Todos Santos in the Pacific Side, and in La Paz, are three different climates.

We have shakers and some tremors every now and then in Bocas del Toro from earthquakes elsewhere. I have been here for 11 years and have not experienced a major earthquake. 
Whether or not I need to own a car in Portugal depends first, the place where I live. In Estoril and Cascais (in the Lisbon area), you have everything at walking distance. If you want to go to the city center, you have a coastal train that’s a beautiful trip—the train goes always along the seafront from Cascais to the city center of Lisbon and it takes 25 minutes. The bus and taxi terminals are all over the place. So transportation in Portugal is very, very well...
In the period of less than half a day, our senses and emotions had experienced quite a workout. In the morning, we were on a ferry in the Sea of Cortez, headed towards Mazatlan. In Mazatlan, we were treated to an entirely new concept: jungle in an urban setting. From there, we had found the toll road, breezed through green and wooded highland farmland, and then gradually descended into a profusion of jungle, not only on the sides of the road, but overhead, as we glided...
After a year of retirement in Turkey and 6 months back in Australia, I decided on Thailand and have been here 11 months. My one-year 'Retirement Visa' is up for extension in a month and is a straightforward process [HA!!].jpg)
I was born in Santo Thomas Hospital in Panama City. My parents & grandparents worked for the Panama Canal Company & we lived on the Canal Zone. From birth to age 5 (1944 - 50) we lived in the Balboa Gavlin area on Cacao Street (in the days before the bridge to our house was on Panamá Bay).
