About this experience
Our private dive tours give you a chance to depart early and escape the crowd in busy Cabo San Lucas. You can also select a slightly later time if you prefer to sleep in! This tour is particularly suitable for very advanced divers and very new divers. We want advanced divers to dive according to their air consumption rate and comfort level and not have to accommodate others on the boat that might limit the dive. For very new divers you have a free refresher included and we go at your pace and very easy locations - if you wish! It's totally your call. In addition, our guides have a guaranteed minimum experience level of at least 6 months working as a guide in the local area with at least 1 year working as a dive professional. Our crew are very conscious of human impact on the environment and for this reason all of our tours are conducted in an environmentally responsible way.

Highly recommend
We had an amazing experience with Cabo Private Guide during a four-day diving trip in Cabo, Mexico, with our two children (ages 13 and 9). From the very beginning, everything was perfectly organized. Morgane did an outstanding job before our trip, helping us plan a fantastic four-day program tailored to our family’s needs. She took the time to make sure that each of us, including both children, had the best diving options based on our experience and comfort level. During our stay, we dove with Morgane, Marou, and Martin. All three were extremely professional, knowledgeable, patient, and friendly. Safety was always their top priority, which made us feel completely confident throughout every dive. Their attention to detail and calm approach allowed both our children to fully enjoy the experience and gain confidence underwater. We also joined a snorkeling trip to La Ventana with Marou, who was absolutely wonderful. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and caring. She took the time to explain everything clearly, made sure everyone was comfortable, and looked after us throughout the excursion. Her genuine kindness and dedication really stood out and made the day extra special. Overall, every member of the team was warm, professional, and passionate about what they do. Our children absolutely loved the experience, and so did we. We couldn’t have asked for a better dive team for our family adventure in Cabo. A huge thank you to Morgane, Marou, and Martin for making this trip so memorable. We highly recommend Cabo Private Guide to anyone looking for a safe, professional, and truly enjoyable diving or snorkeling experience. We will definitely be back!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! It was a pleasure helping your family plan this adventure, and we're so happy everyone had such a memorable experience. Thank you for trusting us with your family's time in Cabo, and we can't wait to welcome you back for more diving and snorkeling adventures!

Great choice for a dive in Cabo!
Great dive this morning with Martin! Tons of rays, sea lions, fish, eels, lobsters, etc. Martin provided the full service setting up my gear each dive and rinsing it off before I headed out to the hotel. Would highly recommend!
Response from the operator: Thank you for the great review! Martin is fantastic, and he’ll be so glad to hear you appreciated the gear setup and care. We're happy the local marine life put on a great show for you this morning with the sea lions and rays. We look forward to welcoming you back for another seamless dive experience!

5/5 Stars - Highly Recommended for Certifications
Morgane with Cabo Private Guide certified my buddy and me for AOW and Nitrox. She is an incredible teacher and very patient. She reassured us and eased my fears while understanding our limits and not pushing us beyond them. It was apparent Morgane loves the ocean and her job. She showed us a variety of marine life - rays, a white tip shark, eels, snappers, blennies, lobsters, grouper, and so much more! I can't say enough about how great the team is at Cabo Private Guide. Diego, Mary, and Martin were also part of making our experience wonderful. Thank you so much CPG! I am truly grateful for my time with you!
Response from the operator: Wooow many thanks for your amazing review! That means a lot for us! We’re so happy to hear that you felt supported, reassured, and comfortable throughout your certifications. Creating a safe, enjoyable, and confidence-building experience is exactly what we strive for, and we’re thrilled you got to enjoy so many incredible marine life encounters along the way! We’ll also make sure the whole team sees your message — everyone will really appreciate it. Thank you again for trusting us with your diving journey. We’re so grateful to have shared this experience with you and hope to welcome you back to Cabo for more underwater adventures soon!

Go Dive With Cabo Private Dive!
Cabo Private Dive came highly recommended from a female scuba Facebook group (Girls that Scuba) and all the great reviews were spot on. My buddy & I are very new OW divers with only a handful of dives under our belts. We were both nervous & intimidated but really wanted to do AOW and Enriched Air certification. From the first communication to our farewell hugs & photos Cabo Private Dive was amazing. The office staff responded promptly and kindly to our many many questions before we even arrived. We requested a female instructor and were assigned to work with Morgane. This woman has the patience of a saint and a teaching style that is direct, informative and a great representation of the PADI standard of education, excellence and safety. She listened to our questions and concerns, calmed us in our moments of freaking out and encouraged & coached us to meet our potential. I will absolutely request her for future experiences. Cabo Private Dive also has very quality and new equipment, nice boats with helpful captains and they make sure everything is taken care of; water, snacks, burritos, GoPro footage-the works! I can’t say enough about how great these folks are, don’t hesitate to use them for your diving adventures & certifications!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for this incredible review and for trusting us with such an important part of your diving journey! It means a lot to us! We know how intimidating it can feel as newer divers stepping into AOW and Enriched Air courses, so it means the world to hear that you felt supported, safe, and encouraged throughout the experience. Providing patient, personalized instruction and creating a comfortable environment for every diver is exactly what we strive for. We’re also so happy you enjoyed the equipment, boats, snacks, and all the little details that help make the experience special. Your kind words about the entire team truly mean a lot to us. Thank you again for choosing Cabo Private Dive and for recommending us to other divers. We hope to welcome you back for many more underwater adventures in the future!

Highly recommend!
We had a great experience with Cabo Private Dive! Our guides, Morgane and Cesar, were both so accommodating and knowledgeable! Because we had 6 of us in our group, we were able to book the boat to ourselves with our guides full attention- and that's exactly what we got! It had been a while since we had dove so we were all a little on edge, and they were very patient with us. We explained to them our concerns and past experiences and they made a great game plan that made us all feel at ease. After that they checked each of our buoyancy since it is saltier and common to need much more weight in that area. Another level of making sure we were off on the right foot. Even though some of us brought our own equipment the guides offered to bring it all back to the office, rinse it, and hang it to dry while we wandered around and had lunch at the Marina. Our team really went above and beyond to make our trip incredible, safe, and one of the most memorable yet!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled you had such a great experience with Morgane and Cesar. It means a lot to hear that you felt safe, supported, and well taken care of—especially after some time away from diving. We’d love to welcome you all back for another unforgettable adventure soon!

Why this scores 76
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Dive Boat for Certified Divers - Cabo San Lucas: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Los Cabos.
How much does Private Dive Boat for Certified Divers - Cabo San Lucas cost?
+
Prices start at $545 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 Private Dive Boat for Certified Divers - Cabo San Lucas take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Private Dive Boat for Certified Divers - Cabo San Lucas worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 76 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 217 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Los Cabos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Dive Boat for Certified Divers - Cabo San Lucas?
+
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 Dive Boat for Certified Divers - Cabo San Lucas suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Dive Boat for Certified Divers - Cabo San Lucas?
+
Around 76 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Dive Boat for Certified Divers - Cabo San Lucas 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 4x4 ATV Tour with Tequila Tasting and Mexican Buffet Lunch, Ziplining and UTV Desert Adventure from Los Cabos, Cabo Beach Camel Ride, Mexican Buffet and Tequila Tasting. 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.
