He found and showed up some octopuses that we would not have found ourselves and showed our daughter the best rocks to jump off of! Tomas was also friendly and helpful. We went on a clear day and saw lots of different fish (including rays) at Pelican Rock.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 852 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $149

Cruise from Cabo San Lucas to two snorkeling bays on a luxury catamaran, with gear, paddleboards, lunch, and an open bar after water activities. You may see sea lions near the Arch and whales in season. Staff members such as Jorge, Pablo, and Leo have earned praise for friendly guidance, though pickup and water conditions need careful planning.

“Our day started off great. Company was prompt, transportation clean, great A/C. The boat is beautiful. Sadly we didn’t get a spectacular snorkel experience. Several members of our group were stung by jellyfish shortly after getting in the water. We moved to a secondary location, hopeful to be able snorkel but you could see them from the surface. We spent the rest of the time anchored with the option to get it the water. No thanks. Food and drinks were ok. There were also no paddle boards or motorized snorkel option as advertised. It was your basic booze cruise. Nothing special.”

Only complaint was the snorkel site, not sure if they have restrictions on where they can go but we were in a very populated area with limited visibility and not a variety of sealife. I feel that most private tours can take you to other less populated area. Overall a great trip and would Definitely do it again. The margaritas were perfect!!!”

Snorkeling or Swimming with Sharks in Cabo San Lucas

9.Snorkeling or Swimming with Sharks in Cabo San Lucas

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 517 reviews · 4 hours (approx.)

Spend about four hours from Cabo San Lucas searching for pelagic sharks in the Sea of Cortez. A trained shark guide handles the briefing and water entry, while the crew provides gear, snacks, boat transfers, and underwater photos. The trip also passes El Arco, Lover’s Beach, and a sea lion colony.

“We had a wonderful experience. There were several things that changed (weather, other groups rescheduling, etc) and this company was so accommodating to make sure my husband and I could go out. Everyone was very knowledgeable and I felt very safe the entire time. Safety is their number one priority and they went through great lengths to educate us about how to interact with the sharks and each other. I will say, Dramamine is a must especially if on a smaller boat. We were able to see three hammerheads, but unfortunately they didn’t stick around long enough for us to get in the water to swim. That’s the risk with…”

The snorkeling was some of the best I've done. We stopped by Chilano Bay but, it was completely packed. Glad we spent the time at the first place. Would recommend this group.”

They had all of the necessary equipment for us and gave helpful kayaking tips before we set off. Our guide, Carlos always communicated where he needed us to kayak to, and always helped us get in and out of the kayaks when landing on or leaving from the beach. We liked that this trip was in the morning because it wasn’t crazy busy when we went to the arch, which was such a beautiful sight, and we…”
