WOW! You have to do this TOUR
WOW! DO THIS TOUR! This was by far my Favorite and I had never really snorkeled so I was very nervous. José literally took my hand and showed me around Pelican Rock! He was so kind and you could tell he loves snorkeling. We had the BEST CAPTAIN on our Boat Ride to and from. He took us up close to view the Arch, Lover & Divorce Beach, East side of peninsula and drop off at Pelicans Rock. AMAZING!!! As if that wasn’t enough- Jose took some of the BEST Pictures!!! Under water ones included. THANK YOU!!!!
Response from the operator: Wow!— thank you so much for such an amazing review, Rachelle! We’re especially happy to hear Josue helped turn those first snorkeling nerves into such a fun and memorable experience. We appreciate your trust and we look forward to seeing you again soon!

Snorkeling
Great experience. Would recommend. Also did the whale watching tour with same company which was equally excellent
Response from the operator: Hola Tina, We really appreciate you sharing this—thank you! It means a lot to hear you enjoyed both experiences with us. Thanks for your recommendation and for coming out with us more than once. We look forward to a third time soon!

Totally recommend!
This was an awesome experience! The boat and the equipment were all comfortable and in great shape. Our guides took great care of us and were so knowledgeable and friendly. We were able to enjoy the beautiful landscape and the snorkeling was so amazing, full of fish and wildlife. My 6 year old daughter and I loved the experience and would definitely book it again. It's great for both beginners and experienced swimmers.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for joining us and for your wonderful review! It’s great to hear both you and your daughter loved the adventure — especially the incredible snorkeling and scenery. We truly appreciate your trust and the kind words about our team. We’d be happy to welcome you both again anytime!

Cruise to The Arch and Snorkel (Transportation & Photos Included): questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cabo San Lucas.
How much does Cruise to The Arch and Snorkel (Transportation & Photos Included) 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 Cabo San Lucas usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Cruise to The Arch and Snorkel (Transportation & Photos Included) take?
+
Plan for about 2 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 Cabo San Lucas is not rushed.
Is Cruise to The Arch and Snorkel (Transportation & Photos Included) worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 61 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Cabo San Lucas, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Cruise to The Arch and Snorkel (Transportation & Photos Included)?
+
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 Cruise to The Arch and Snorkel (Transportation & Photos Included) suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Cruise to The Arch and Snorkel (Transportation & Photos Included)?
+
Around 1 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 Cabo San Lucas 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 Cabo San Lucas and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cruise to The Arch and Snorkel (Transportation & Photos Included) 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 Cabo San Lucas 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 Cabo San Lucas?
+
On Outty we rank every Cabo San Lucas experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Cabo Original Real Baja 1000 Tour (Single ATV), Cabo Extreme Beach and Desert Off-Road ATV Experience, 2 Tank Dive - Certified Divers (Santa Maria Bay & Chileno Bay). 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 Cabo San Lucas?
+
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 Cabo San Lucas?
+
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 Cruise to The Arch and Snorkel (Transportation & Photos Included)?
+
Included: Snacks; Bottled water; Use of snorkeling equipment; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Included photos by The Arch. Not included: Tips. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Cruise to The Arch and Snorkel (Transportation & Photos Included) include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 180 listed pickup locations in and around Cabo San Lucas. Be ready about 45 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Cruise to The Arch and Snorkel (Transportation & Photos Included) 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.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Cruise to The Arch and Snorkel (Transportation & Photos Included)?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is Cruise to The Arch and Snorkel (Transportation & Photos Included) wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+

What happens to Cruise to The Arch and Snorkel (Transportation & Photos Included) if the weather is bad?
+
