Top San Jose del Cabo Day Trips

Excellent experience visiting Balandra beach, with crystal clear water and schools of fish swimming around you, vibrant city of La Paz with its miles-long malecón and Coromuel beach, and the Magic Town of Todos Santos with the iconic Hotel California (even if the hotel itself was closed for renovations, there is access to most parts of the inner courtyard)!

This is an ALL DAY activity. Our pickup was @ 7:25 am & we were dropped back at our resort just after 6pm. It’s a LONG day but worth it for the beautiful scenery! The whole tour was seamless from start to finish. Communication during the booking process was easy and quick thru the chat tab. Our pickup was prompt and directions clear — don’t be afraid to confirm/ ask questions thru the chat tab. We were picked up in a small van, transferred to the Cabo Adventure main site for checkin and waited less than 15 min for larger group to board our large bus and 2 hr ride to La Paz, with a quick bathroom stop about an hour in. There’s a small convenience store you can purchase snacks, drinks etc if you choose. The bus was comfortable, had good AC! Bring a book, your phone or just catch a nap & the ride goes quickly. The crew is pleasant, gives easy, clear instructions & provides great service. The boat ride is pleasant & the water in the beach areas is just gorgeous. You have the option to snorkel, swim or just stay in the boat at the first stop. We had a guide that led us to areas of interest - tons of coral, small tropical fish, puffer fish and small octopus nestled in the coral. The marine life is ok but not as prolific as in some areas - this tour is more about the natural beauty of beaches & being on the water than seeing marine life. The second stop was gorgeous! A smaller boat will transfer you to beach. There you have the option to sit in chairs under umbrellas, kayak or just swim or hang out in the shallows. We saw small puffer fish and my daughter saw a couple small octopi while snorkeling near the coral along the cliff. This was their favorite area to just relax in shallows & have a beer. The stay here is an hour but goes quickly. You load up on the smaller boat and return to the catamaran for short ride back to the marina and 2 hr return ride to Cabo with same bathroom stop on ride back. Be sure to reapply sunscreen at each stop! Sun is brutal!

The driver was running a little late for pick up. We were notified immediately, which was very nice. Our guide was wonderful! He shared history of the area on our drive to Todos Santos as well as many fun facts. Once we arrived, he shared information, history and tips for places to eat and shop. We really enjoyed this tour and would recommend it to others interested in seeing other parts of the peninsula.
