Cabo San Lucas: Lands End Sail & Snorkel Cruise with Lunch

Summary

Sea of Cortez sailing to Land’s End arch snorkeling lunch included

You’ll sail from Cabo San Lucas past Pelican’s Rock to snorkel among tropical fish near Land’s End Arch. Enjoy lunch and unlimited drinks as you relax on deck with your group or family. Expect laughter, ocean breezes, maybe a sea lion or two—and that feeling of time slowing down as you drift back toward shore.

What’s the experience like?

I’ll admit, I wasn’t sure what “luxury” meant for a sail in Cabo San Lucas — but stepping barefoot onto that smooth deck with the sun already warming my shoulders, I got it. The crew greeted us like old friends (one guy, Jorge, even remembered someone’s birthday from last year). There was music playing, not too loud, just enough to make it feel like a real day off. We headed out past the marina and the water turned this wild blue-green color you don’t really see anywhere else.

Our guide pointed out Pelican’s Rock first — honestly, I thought it’d just be rocks and birds, but there were these pelicans diving for fish right next to us and frigatebirds circling above. When we anchored, the salt smell hit me hard (in a good way) and I could hear kids laughing over their snorkels. Slipping into the water was colder than I expected but after a second it felt perfect. There were so many fish — bright yellow ones darting around my feet — and one guy swore he saw a ray glide by. I don’t know if he was messing with us but everyone started looking harder after that.

After swimming we dried off in the sun while the crew handed out cold drinks — someone passed me a plate of fruit and chips before I even asked. Lunch came out soon after; nothing fancy but fresh, which is all you want when you’re salty and hungry. Sailing up close to Land’s End Arch was almost surreal — sea lions barking from the rocks, everyone taking turns for photos without anyone rushing us along. The wind picked up just enough that when we finally set sail for real (not motoring), you could hear just the water against the hull for a bit. That quiet stuck with me more than anything else.
