Best thing in Cabo
Carlos and Josue were the best tour guides. We had such a fun time. The kayaking was fun and the snorkeling was amazing. So many fish. Such a fun experience. Would highly recommend
Response from the operator: Hola Dustin, We’re so happy you had such a wonderful time with us! It means a lot to hear such lovely words about Carlos and Josue, and we’ll be sure to share them with both of them. We truly appreciate you choosing to spend part of your Cabo vacation with us and taking the time to recommend our tour. It was a pleasure having you!

Highly recommend
Cannot recommend this experience enough - especially the sunset one! We explored by kayak, checked out the arch and beach, and then snorkeled a small patch reef that had tons of fish and sea lions!
Response from the operator: We’re so glad you chose to start your day with us! It sounds like you made the most of your morning (sunrise) on the water, and we love that the experience had a little bit of everything and you enjoyed it. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we really appreciate the recommendation!

Worthwhile Adventure
We did the 6am tour and would recommend it to anyone willing to experience Cabo with calmer waters and less crowds. Everything was phenomenal. On-time hotel pick up with friendly driver. Small group making it feel like a near private experience in the off season. Josue was a great guide, very informative, and always felt he was in control of the boats and waves. It's a great adventurous outing for those who want to experience a little more excitement than usual from kayaking. The kayaking, beach break, and snorkeling were all well timed without feeling rushed. Would recommend to anyone wishing to spend a morning enjoying the most popular places in Cabo.
Response from the operator: Hola Andrew, We’re so happy to hear you had such a fun and memorable morning! It has been our pleasure to have you join us. We’re grateful for your review and recommendation. Come back soon!

Cabo San Lucas Arch and Lovers Beach Kayak Tour plus Snorkeling: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Los Cabos.
How much does Cabo San Lucas Arch and Lovers Beach Kayak Tour plus Snorkeling cost?
+
Prices start at $90 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Los Cabos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Cabo San Lucas Arch and Lovers Beach Kayak Tour plus Snorkeling take?
+
Plan for about 2.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Los Cabos is not rushed.
Is Cabo San Lucas Arch and Lovers Beach Kayak Tour plus Snorkeling worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 91 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1,070 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Los Cabos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Cabo San Lucas Arch and Lovers Beach Kayak Tour plus Snorkeling?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Cabo San Lucas Arch and Lovers Beach Kayak Tour plus Snorkeling suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Cabo San Lucas Arch and Lovers Beach Kayak Tour plus Snorkeling?
+
Around 375 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Los Cabos can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Los Cabos and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cabo San Lucas Arch and Lovers Beach Kayak Tour plus Snorkeling start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Los Cabos within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Los Cabos?
+
On Outty we rank every Los Cabos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cabo Whale Watching: Female Crew, Guaranteed Sightings, Photos, Cabo San Lucas Mexican Cooking Class Experience and Local Markets, Cabo San Lucas Sunset Cruise with Open Bar and Snacks. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Los Cabos?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Los Cabos?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Cabo San Lucas Arch and Lovers Beach Kayak Tour plus Snorkeling?
+

Does Cabo San Lucas Arch and Lovers Beach Kayak Tour plus Snorkeling include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 182 listed pickup locations in and around Los Cabos. Be ready about 45 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Cabo San Lucas Arch and Lovers Beach Kayak Tour plus Snorkeling offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
