I spent a lot of time...
I spent a lot of time researching boat tours and I am very happy with my choice. The boat was REALLY comfortable with plenty of seating in the front and the back. And the canopy provided nice shade for those who wanted it. Our guide, Jose, was terrific. He showed us all of the major landmarks and rock formations in the area. We did not snorkel but we saw a lot of fish from the boat. We tried to find whales but I think we were a little too late for that. So Jose offered to drop us off at Lover's Beach for a visit. We walked back to Divorce beach on the Pacific side to see the much larger waves. We have done several boat tours in the past but never actually visited the beach so we really enjoyed this. (I will note that there was a hiccup with the pricing. Our cruise arrival day/time were changed and when I changed the time with Viator, they must have increased the price. This was not noted when I changed the time and I did not find out until it we arrived for the tour. This was frustrating and Viator was not very helpful, but the vendor made it right for us and we really appreciate that.). If I were to book another boat tour in Cabo, I would pick this one again. Side note: if you are coming from a cruise ship, the meeting point is less than 5 minutes from the tender drop off and there are plenty of places to buy drinks and ice on the way. They had a an ice chest on the boat for us to use and a radio with bluetooth connectivity so you can play your music. All in all highly recommended.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your detailed and thoughtful review! We’re so happy to hear you were pleased with your choice and enjoyed a comfortable boat, great amenities, and a smooth overall experience. It’s wonderful to know Jose made the tour special by showing you the landmarks and helping create a memorable visit to Lover’s Beach and Divorce Beach. We’re also glad the team was able to assist and make things right regarding the pricing situation. We truly appreciate your recommendation and are delighted to hear you would choose us again. We hope to welcome you back for another great experience in Cabo! — Boat Trips Club Team

Why this scores 66
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Cabo Yacht Tour: El Arco, Snorkel & Lover’s Beach: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cabo San Lucas.
How much does Private Cabo Yacht Tour: El Arco, Snorkel & Lover’s Beach cost?
+
Prices start at $399 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 Private Cabo Yacht Tour: El Arco, Snorkel & Lover’s Beach 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 Private Cabo Yacht Tour: El Arco, Snorkel & Lover’s Beach worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 61 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cabo San Lucas, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Cabo Yacht Tour: El Arco, Snorkel & Lover’s Beach?
+
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 Private Cabo Yacht Tour: El Arco, Snorkel & Lover’s Beach 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 Private Cabo Yacht Tour: El Arco, Snorkel & Lover’s Beach?
+
Around 21 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 Private Cabo Yacht Tour: El Arco, Snorkel & Lover’s Beach 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 Humpback Whale Watching Tour in Cabo San Lucas, Cabo Desert Off-Road & Beach Horseback Combo and Tequila Tasting, Cabo All-Inclusive Private Beach Club with Open Bar and Buffet. 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.
