The Experience
The boat leaves from Los Cabos with your group aboard a private sailboat, passing the Arch of Cabo San Lucas and Land's End on the way out to open water. You'll have time to photograph the landmarks and watch for the sea lion colony before the boat anchors in a secluded bay. From there, the day is yours to shape: snorkel among the reefs and corals, take a dip in the ocean, or try stand-up paddleboarding. Snorkeling equipment and paddleboards are provided.
Lunch arrives on board with an unlimited open bar—the drinks and food are included, so you're not managing a bill or rationing rounds. A vegetarian option is available if you request it when you book. The guide speaks English or Spanish and stays with the group throughout. Hotel pickup is included, and you'll confirm the time and location with the operator after booking.
The cruise runs four hours total, which means you can fit it into a morning or afternoon and still have time for other plans. Groups stay under 16 people, so the boat doesn't feel crowded. Guests must remove shoes before boarding, and the operator asks that you have at least a moderate level of fitness for swimming and paddleboarding. Expectant mothers cannot participate, and the minimum drinking age is 18.
What’s included
- Private transportation from your hotel.

Is this one for you?Four hours is short enough to pair with other activities in your day, but long enough to sail past the landmarks, snorkel, and eat without rushing. Book this if you want the Arch and the reefs without spending a full day on the water, or if you're traveling with a group and want the boat to yourselves.

What is the Arch of Cabo San Lucas and why do people photograph it?
The Arch of Cabo San Lucas is the iconic rock formation at the southern tip of the Baja Peninsula where the Pacific Ocean meets the Sea of Cortez. It's one of the most recognizable landmarks in Mexico and the boat passes close enough for clear photos on the way out to the bay.
Can I snorkel if I've never done it before?
Yes. Snorkeling equipment is provided, and the guide is with you throughout the cruise. The reefs and corals in the secluded bay are accessible for beginners, though you should be comfortable in the water and have at least moderate fitness.
Is the lunch included in the price, or do I pay separately?
Lunch and the unlimited open bar are both included. A vegetarian option is available—just let the operator know when you book.
How long is the cruise, and will I have time for other activities that day?
The cruise runs four hours, which fits into a morning or afternoon slot and leaves time for other plans. Hotel pickup is included, so you don't need to arrange transport to the dock.
What should I bring or wear?
Bring a swimsuit, sunscreen, and a towel (towels are not provided). You'll remove your shoes before boarding, so wear something easy to slip off. Snorkeling gear and paddleboards are supplied.
Can I buy photos from the cruise?
Souvenir photos are available to purchase during or after the cruise if you want professional shots of your group.
