Glass-bottom boat past the Arch and Sea Lion colony after a city tour of Cabo's main spots

The boat passes Pelican Rock, the Arch, Lover's Beach and the Sea Lion colony along the bay. Hotel pickup, a bilingual guide, life jacket and bottled water are included; tequila tasting and shopping time are optional.

The Experience

The tour starts with a van pickup from your hotel and a drive through Cabo's main spots. You'll see Medano Beach at its entrance, pass the Cabo Wabo cantina on the downtown strip, and roll past the old tuna cannery building at the south end of Marina Boulevard. The van is fully air conditioned and the guide speaks both English and Spanish, so the landmarks and the rhythm of the city come into focus without having to piece it together yourself.

After the city portion, you board a glass-bottom boat at Dock A at the marina. The boat heads straight out along Land's End, and from there the route follows the bay side of the Sea of Cortes. You pass Pelican Rock, the Neptune Finger, Lover's Beach, the Divorce Beach viewpoint, and the famous Arch—the iconic rock formation that marks the point where the Pacific meets the bay. The Sea Lion colony is visible along the way. A life jacket is provided and included.

The itinerary builds in time for optional tequila tasting and shopping, so the day is not locked to a single pace. Bottled water is provided throughout.
