“If you aren’t being picked up, Get a cab as close as you can to the Cabo dolphins. Have to check in at Cabo Adventures next door to that and it was a mile to walk there-entrance is at end of the marina. Crew Rogelio and Juan was very fun and hospitable and Carla was wonderful about taking many photos. Drinks were great and food was good & substantial. We thought it was good value and our guests were delighted with their experience.”

For people worried about it being a party boat, rest easy, this trip was a happy medium with lots of alcohol and great food, but no craziness. We would definitely go back and do this same trip again because of the quality of the crew and the amenities!”
