The COVID paranoia is real! Even after a year of staying indoors, wearing masks, quitting socialization, and isolating, a single cough or sneeze can throw us off. Even once the pandemic ends, we’ll need years to recover from the collective trauma, the effects of which get worse each passing day. It’s as important to stay home and stay safe as it is to get out and allow yourself to unwind.
As the hustle bustle of metropolitan cities has died down, people are seeking distractions in adventure sports and safe vacation ideas. Sailing into the Cabo sea, away from the shore, and fishing in the midst of a vast blue ocean is the perfect idea of a relaxing holiday. But vacationers are skeptical of safety procedures that will be followed, and we get it. That’s why we’re elaborating on all the safety measures that we’ll take to make your fishing trip perfectly safe and fun.
COVID Situation in Mexico
Right at the end of 2020, Mexico reported a decline in coronavirus cases. Deputy Health Minister Hugo López-Gatell reported a 13% decline in the COVID statistics in the last few weeks of December 2020 but warned that the trend could be short-lived and isn’t definitive.
However, in February 2021, Mexico was pleased to loosen the COVID-19 alert level as the rate of infections and hospitalization went down. The state is gradually reopening public places such as churches, restaurants, and malls, with strict SOPs and surveillance.
Safety Certifications
Before you begin to think we’re a self-proclaimed “safe fishing tour company” that’s luring you to a high-risk fishing destination, we’re not. Here are the state-approved certifications that have declared Mexico safe for travel.
The federal government of Mexico awarded the Punto Limpio certification to Los Cabos. This ensures the safety of vacationers who want to travel to Mexico to enjoy our fishing tours. This testifies that Mexico adheres to strict hygiene standards and maintains safety protocols between suppliers, hotels, and local authorities. The World Tourism & Travel Council (WTTC) has recognized Los Cabos as a safe destination by stamping it with “Safe Travels”.
Safety Protocol System
Los Cabos has established a thorough health and safety system that’s called Los Cabos with Care: A Safer Way to Get Away. As the name suggest, this system monitors the safety protocols that are being followed and allows travelers a chance to enjoy a holiday without risking their safety.
The system is under the supervision of local health authorities. It’s also affiliated with Intertek Cristal that further stresses hygienic traveling, physical distancing, and wearing personal protective equipment (PPE) in high-risk situations.
All of this combined proposes fishing trips in Cabo San Lucas as a promising getaway to release some tension induced by the novel virus; you can enjoy surf fishing spots and sportfishing in Cabo San Lucas. Want to fish a marlin for dinner? Call us right away to book our fishing charters.
