- MND Local: Why high-value tourism is down, not just in Los Cabos, but across Mexico’s top beach resort destinations
Mexico's high-value international tourism is declining in top resort destinations like Los Cabos, Puerto Vallarta, and Cancún, despite overall tourism numbers rising. International air arrivals dropped 7.5% in March 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, with continued declines in April, May, and June. Cartel-related violence in February, including arson attacks, is cited as a contributing factor to reduced high-value tourism.
