“Our guide Sol was great. Took very good care of us. New to kayaking and snorkeling but he taught us quickly. Saw lots of tropical fish and sea lions and kayak to the arch and beautiful views. The kayaking is very physical so be prepared about an hour of constant rowing. Was definitely a good experience and don’t hesitate to book. Sol also picked us up at our air bnb and had snacks and waters during the excursion. He was very knowledgeable about the area and fun facts about the beaches”

They didn’t rush us through the tour and it was the perfect amount of time split between the kayaks and the snorkeling. Would absolutely do it again!”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 74 reviews · 4 hours (approx.)

Spend four hours aboard a private yacht from Cabo San Lucas with crew members such as Lewis, Leo, or Sergio. See the Arch and sea lions, then swim, snorkel, fish, and paddle board at Santa Maria or Chileno Bay, with drinks, snacks, towels, and gear included.

“Sergio and Maya were awesome. Everything about the trip was first class. It was simple to arrange and meet up with Maya on the day of the trip. We were escorted to the boat and from there they took care of everything. We had an unlimited open bar with attentive drink service, a wonderful fajita dinner on the ocean, snorkeling, paddle boarding, and sightseeing. It can be as peaceful or as rowdy as you want to get. All around a great 1/2 day on the sea.”
