Los Cabos Luxury Sailing, Snorkel and Lunch Cruise

1.Los Cabos Luxury Sailing, Snorkel and Lunch Cruise

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 3,515 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $149Our pick

Spend about four hours sailing from the Los Cabos Marina toward Santa Maria or Chileno Bay, with snacks, an open bar, snorkeling, paddleboards, and lunch onboard. The crew may include guides such as Cesar, Israel, Michelle, Joe, or Poncho. You also get Arch views and a chance to help steer the boat.

“Thomas and Captain Richard did an excellent job guiding this excursion with amazing service from start to finish that included great drinks, plenty of snacks (shrimp, guac, chips, fruit, salad, chocolate, etc), snorkeling in the Santa Maria Bay, and finishing up with (true) sailing back to the marina. The excursion felt well planned and I'd recommend it to anyone looking to see not only the Arch (the first thing we saw coming out of the marina), but do other water activities (sailing and snorkeling) all in one trip. Pickup from the hotel was also well coordinated, but make sure to contact the Cabo Adventures team in advance to confirm pickup…”
