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.”
