Snorkeling in Cabo San Lucas: Private boat, equipment included

Dive into crystal waters and climb aboard easily with our private boat ladder.

Private snorkeling in Cabo San Lucas puts you on a small boat with a live guide in English or Spanish, snorkel gear, soda and bottled water included. The boat carries either six or ten people depending on which option you choose at checkout. You spend three hours exploring rock formations along the shore and swimming in different areas, with the guide explaining what you're seeing as you go. A ladder with an extra extension makes re-entry easy.

The Experience

What makes this snorkeling work is the boat itself — small enough that you're not jostling for space, but equipped with a ladder that has an extension built in, so climbing back aboard after time in the water is straightforward, not a scramble. The guide takes you all around the coastline, pointing out rock formations and explaining the geology as you move between spots. You get to choose where to swim and snorkel based on conditions and what you want to see that day.

The three-hour window gives you real time in the water across multiple coves rather than one rushed stop. Snorkel gear is provided, so you don't pack your own or rent separately. Soda and bottled water come along, so you're not thirsty between swims. The guide speaks English or Spanish depending on what you need, and pickup is included, so the day starts without you arranging transport to the boat.

Is this one for you?Book the six-person option if you want the smallest group and the most attention from the guide; the ten-person option still keeps the boat intimate while spreading the cost. Either way, the ladder extension means you're not fighting to haul yourself back aboard after time in the water.

Top questions

How many people will be on the boat with me?

You choose at checkout: either six people or ten people. Both options are private snorkeling, meaning no walk-up strangers joining the boat — just your group and the guide.

What's included in the three hours on the water?

Snorkel equipment, soda, bottled water and the guide are all included. The guide explains the rock formations and coastline as you move between swimming areas.

Do I need to bring my own snorkel gear?

No — snorkel equipment is provided. You just bring a swimsuit and a towel.

What happens if I'm not a strong swimmer?

The boat visits different areas where you can swim and snorkel, so you can choose spots that match your comfort level. The guide is there to help, and the ladder with the extension makes getting back on the boat easy.

Does the price include lunch?

Lunch is not included, but soda and bottled water are. You can bring your own food or eat before or after the snorkeling.
