Must do this tour in Cabo!!

This was AMAZING. The meetup spot was easy to find and the crew was excellent. We have been on many whale watching tours in Hawaii, Alaska, Canada….but never as close as this. We got to see several breaches and a baby learning how to breathe, breach, and splash its tail…..all within a hundred feet.

So much fun!

My friend Audrey and I booked it down to Cabo randomly for a weekend and decided to book the ATV/Camel/tequila tour, and it did not disappoint! Adan and Pablo were fabulous, the camels were so sweet, and the beach club where it’s located is absolutely gorgeous… 10/10 recommend.

Amazing!!

Wasn’t sure if we would actually see anything since the season is winding down. We were just happy to be out in the water enjoying the day. Jorge was super knowledgeable about the whales that travel through the area. We saw rays, dolphins and whales! It was a great experience.

Best whale watching option

We had such an amazing time whale watching! Carlos was our guide and he had so many cool facts about whales. The catamaran was fantastic, plenty of room to move around and of course 360 degree views. We were given drinks and a snack and everything was just perfect!

Humpback Whale Watching Tour in Cabo San Lucas

Nicholas_P, Apr 2026

This whale watching...

This whale watching experience was absolutely incredible for our entire family. My wife and two kids are still talking about it. As we walked toward the marina, we found ourselves guessing which boat would be ours. To be honest, we were a little concerned at first. Many of the boats looked smaller, and we were worried the ride out to the open ocean might be rough, especially with kids. The moment we saw our boat, though, all of that changed. It was spacious, comfortable, and handled the waves effortlessly. We felt safe and relaxed the entire time. Our guide, Adrienne, was outstanding. Her knowledge and passion for marine life really elevated the experience. She shared insights throughout the trip that kept all of us engaged, including the kids. Captain Freddie was equally impressive, navigating smoothly and clearly knowing exactly where to go. And then came the whales. We saw around five humpback whales, which alone would have been amazing, but what made it truly unforgettable was witnessing a full family group. We saw an escort whale alongside a mother and her baby traveling together. It was one of those rare, magical moments you can’t plan for and will never forget. This was easily one of the highlights of our trip. If you are considering a whale watching tour, do not hesitate to book this one. Highly recommend.

Great Whale Watching Experience

My wife and I booked the morning whale watching excursion. The breakfast was simple but tasty. Open bar. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. We spotted several whales, including a mom and baby. They even breached several times. It was amazing. Just be patient. There is a photographer that takes beautiful photos that you can purchase for a reasonable price. You won’t get wet, so swim clothing isn’t necessary. Easy boarding. Restrooms on board. Please make sure to tip if you are as satisfied as we were!

Awesome family memory

This was such a great experience for my family and I. We’ve never gotten so close to whales in our life! I wasn’t sure how the kids would do (9 and 7), but they loved it! It was a small group so it was intimate, we got to ask a lot of questions. Our guide Xochi was incredible and very knowledgeable which made it even more memorable.

Cabo San Lucas Small-Group Whale Watching Tour: Hear the Whales

Nancy_A, Jan 2026

Spectacular whale experience!

We booked our tour the morning of and was able to get on the 2pm tour. After a little miscommunication about where to meet, I called the company and they were very helpful with connecting us with our boat captain. It turned out we were the only people which made for a wonderful private experience. Our captain, Miguel was so friendly and made our trip amazing. We got very lucky and he found two large male whales right away and we saw them breach multiple times. He was very considerate of observing the rules of engaging with the animals and knowledgeable on their behavior. We went in search to find a mama and baby and with his experience, we found a very playful baby and loving mother whale. It was wonderful to see them interact together. It was an amazing afternoon and nature did not disappoint!

Arch Tour with Amazing Captain in Cabo San Lucas

Barkha_M, Jun 2025

Enjoyable trip! No frills!

Great experience with captain Vyamar. We were looking for a quick trip to the arch and this was about 45 minutes, which was perfect for us with younger kids. He was on time and was courteous enough to wait for other passengers. He pointed out all the important things on the way to the arch. This was a no-frills trip on a basic boat. The captain was super friendly and made the trip enjoyable!
