It was perfect! Juan and Alex made sure we had the best time, saw plenty of fish, allowed us to soak in the beautiful arches, pointed out sea lions, and kept a close eye on each of us. I would highly recommend!!

    Definitely well worth it. Luis was great getting us all set up and ready to go. Damian our tour guide was fantastic. He was super knowledgeable and patient with everyone on the boat. Junior our captain was the best. There happened to be hump back whales in the area so after the tour he went around so we could see the whales. Me and my daughter had an amazing time. I would definitely book again especially if I could guarantee the same tour guides.

    Carlo and Moses were super cool ! Love the experience and seeing so many different kinds of fishes and as well a sea lion! My fiance first time snorkeling and he was nervous at first but Carlo made him feel super comfortable and confident and he ended up having a blast ! As well, they recommended a local food spot that was amazing !

    Carlo was kind, funny, and very knowledgeable! We were lucky to have the boat all to ourselves, and he provided us with beverages, life vests, flippers, and snorkeling gear to make us feel safe and comfortable for the tour. Some members of our group weren't strong swimmers and he made sure to give them special attention so that all of us could have a good time together. He even took high-quality photos of us underwater that he shared with us (for an extra cost). We would highly recommend this tour!

    So much fun with a great Crew!

    I took my son and nephew who both just turned 18. We had a wonderful time and saw so many fish! Carlo and the captain did a fantastic job making sure we were well cared for. They stopped and took great photos for us on our phones and made sure everyone felt safe and saw lots of fish. I highly recommend this tour! It was the highlight of our trip!

    Cabo Adventure Tours was professional and knowledgeable. Alex, our guide in the water, and Moises, the captain of our ship, created a seamless experience.

    Luis & Alex were the perfect guides! We had an amazing experience, they even take pictures in the water for you. It was a beautiful morning plenty of fish to see and explore!

    Amazing Experience!

    Candice_W, Jul 2026
    It was a simple snorkeling experience! The hosts made it worth the money. We had Luis and Alex. Alex was a 5 star leader. He made sure everyone was safe and was having a good time. The tour itself wasn’t spectacular but overall vibe was super nice!!

    Snorkel Fun

    Great time. Luis and Carlo were enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Beautiful fish and scenery. Would do it again.

    It was okay

    Tiffany_B, Jul 2026
    It's expensive for what you get. The snorkeling gear was okay, but not great. I'm a scuba diver so I'm familiar with mask and snorkeling gear and these were so-so (leaked the entire time). Didn't see much. Yes, saw fish. Not a lot of variety and didn't not see even one sea lion (wrong time of year unfortunately).

    Amazing

    We booked this experience and loved it. Our guide Carlo was amazing. Boat ride was great and the snorkeling experience was awesome. He took pictures and made sure we were comfortable with the experience. Highly recommend.

    Snorkel fun!

    Jennifer_C, Jul 2026
    Nice boat tour with snorkeling. Would recommend to friends. Very nice being in a small group. Luis was great and even made sure to take pictures on our phones.

    Excellent trip, highly recommended

    Justin_H, Jul 2026
    10/10 Great trip. Luis was waiting at the marina to welcome us and show us where to go. Carlo was our tour guide, he was very knowledgeable and super entertaining. He explained every part of the trip and guided us step by step throughout the whole experience. At one point my wife did welcome sea sick, I can't say enough about how great Carlos cared for her and did everything possible to help.

    An Unforgettable Snorkeling Adventure!

    Anthony_H, Jun 2026
    We had such a fun time with Baja Snorkel! We were greeted by Luis, who was so welcoming and friendly. He introduced us to our guide, Carlo, who then took us to the boat where we met the captain, Moises. The boat trip before snorkeling was awesome—we were on the water for about 50 minutes and got to see all the great spots, including Lover's Beach, the Arch, and the Gateway to the Pacific. Moises was a great captain and kept the boat in perfect control the whole time. Our guide, Carlo, was fantastic. He was fun, funny, and very knowledgeable. He shared a lot of interesting facts and history about the local landmarks. The snorkeling itself was incredible; we saw seals, yellowfin, rays, and so many fish I don't even know the names of. I couldn't recommend this more. It was truly an unforgettable experience and I will always appreciate the crew for making such a special trip even more memorable! Thank you guys! -Anthony

    Great tour guide Carlo

    Great experience! Carlo was the best guide and took great care of our kids! My daughter was nervous and he made it go very well.

    Beyond happy!

    We loved our adventure with Alex, Carlos and Moises! We are a family with 3 teen/tweens and wanted to see El Arco. We are so happy we selected this tour with snorkeling! From the beginning, Luis was warm and welcoming. The trip was so relaxing and fun, thanks to the two guides, Alex and Carlos, and Moises, the boat captain. They pointed out wildlife, landmarks and interesting notes about the area. They definitely prioritized safety-both in the water and on the boat. Alex kindly made himself available to help our youngest during snorkeling, offering to have the flotation device ready for her to grab anytime she got tired of treading. I appreciated that he made sure not to baby her, so she gained confidence gradually. We felt safe and engaged the whole time and appreciated their wide knowledge and authentic love for the area. We bought Carlos’ photos through airdrop because they were 100x better than the ones I took through my waterproof case. Definitely would recommend this tour to others!!

    Great experience! Alex...

    Great experience! Alex was awesome!!! He was very attentive to our needs and made sure we were safe.

    Worth a shot. This was just our experience.

    Shantilly_B, Jun 2026
    This was a great experience, we saw a lot of fish and two big manta-rays. My kids and aunt had a great time. The reason I rated at a three is because the guide could have spent more time ensuring everyone’s mask were on properly and that they were comfortable going into the water. It was very rushed. I made sure they knew how to work it all once we were in the water, but we were very close to the rocks and I think that was overwhelming for my son at first. It was my 10 & 12 year olds first time so it seemed way more stressful than it should have been. The guide was funny, knowledgeable, and was kind to us. The water was murkier than we expected and I think going three hours instead of two would have been great! Once we got the hang of it, we had to leave. Then the guide took us to restrooms that cost money to use and we later found the tourist free bathrooms that weren’t far. My son rated it 2.5 and my daughter 3/4.
