Senior Travel Health: Tips for Older Visitors to Los Cabos

Los Cabos is a favorite for retirees and multi-generational trips. With a few precautions, older travelers can enjoy it fully and safely. Here is what to keep in mind.

Manage medication and conditions

Bring ample medication in original containers plus a written list of medicines, doses and allergies. If you manage a chronic condition, keep monitoring on schedule and store temperature-sensitive medicines properly.

Respect the heat

Older adults are more vulnerable to dehydration and heat illness. Hydrate constantly, rest during midday heat, wear sun protection, and pace activities.

Mind mobility and footing

Uneven cobblestones in downtown areas, boat steps, and pool decks can be slippery. Wear supportive shoes and take your time; minor falls are a common travel injury.

Care that comes to you

If something comes up, a bilingual doctor can visit your hotel 24/7, a nurse can assist with injections, wound care or monitoring, and for longer stays or extra support we offer in-home senior care. We can also deliver medication.

Before you travel

Check your travel insurance covers your age and any conditions, carry your documents, and share your itinerary with family. Peace of mind makes for a better trip.
