Great time!
This was a fun time with Captain Roberto and guide Elias. I took the afternoon tour and it was just me. Both and Elias and Roberto were friendly, knowledgeable and my first trip to Cabo a memorable one. I had some difficulty get back into the boat however with a little help from my new friends I made it in. I would highly recommend this tour!

Saw some cool fish and rock formations. But because of the local conditions the visibility was limited and the seas were somewhat choppy.

The best time ever!
All the employees were very clear and concise in their instructions and so much fun to be around. The food and tequila was amazing! We had the best time. Would definitely do again and again.

over-promised and under-delivered
Cabo Day Trips just outsources tours. We were actually given a tour by a different company without any warning. The person who scheduled us texted me information. I never received anything in my email other than a payment receipt. The information she texted was incorrect and had to be corrected. After the initial point of contact she did not return any text messages to answer questions. Our driver arrived almost 20 minutes late. Cabo Day Trips did not answer the telephone number on their website or the number they initially texted me from when we attempted to inquire about the delay. Our driver was otherwise a great driver and gave us a nice overview of the areas we drove thru and was prompt to pick us back up again. The snorkel tour itself had some pluses and minuses. Plus - snorkel guide was pleasant and helpful, small group, great view and time spent seeing the Arch, boat guide was also pleasant. We had a bilingual group so they were sure to speak in both English and Spanish. Photographer on boat did a nice job and the price of the photos was very reasonable. Minuses - our snorkel guide chummed for fish - great to see so many fish swimming near us but feeding the fish tortillas cannot be a great way to support a healthy ecosystem, our snorkel guide did little to educate us on the amazing array of fish and coral we saw - was more interested in seeing how deep down he could swim and encouraging cliff jumping. The "box lunch" was a brown paper bag with a smushed sandwich made out of dry bread with a piece of meat and some veggies and a small bag of spicy cheetos. We were never provided water or sodas as promised. Thankfully we also brought our own water otherwise we would have run into trouble given the heat. We did not stop at lovers beach as promised, understandably because of ocean conditions (it was rough there) but Medino beach was to be back up and we still did not go there even though we left snorkeling 30 minutes early because of how crowded and rough the water was. We ended up walking 15 minutes on our own to Medino beach which was green flag beaches. We were not advised there was the option of photos or to bring money for them. Very underwhelmed, felt a bit like a bait and switch which over-promised and under-delivered. Will not use Cabo Day Trips again.

No tequila tasting
Snorkeling in Pelican rock was great. Viator advertised the tour includes lunch and tequila tasting but tour organizers said it was not included when we got to the port. Photos are extra but no under water photos.
Response from the operator: Dear Cecille, Thank you for your time to post a comment, we will make the corrections. Cabo Hugs-

Why this scores 56
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Snorkeling at Pelicans Rock: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cabo San Lucas.
How much does Snorkeling at Pelicans Rock cost?
+
Prices start at $99 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 Snorkeling at Pelicans Rock 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 Cabo San Lucas is not rushed.
Is Snorkeling at Pelicans Rock worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 13 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 Snorkeling at Pelicans Rock?
+
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 Snorkeling at Pelicans Rock 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 Snorkeling at Pelicans Rock?
+
Around 5 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 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Snorkeling at Pelicans Rock 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.
