Cabo San Lucas Excursions - Sail And Snorkel Excursion or Chileno Bay Snorkeling
Am trying to decide between two Princess excursions in Cabo San Lucas.
They are the Sail And Snorkel Excursion and Chileno Bay Snorkeling. Below are brief descriptions of each from the Princess website: Sail And Snorkel Excursion - Board either an ex-racing sloop or sailing catamaran, and cruise past Los Arcos to Pelican Rock. Sail or motor past Lover's Beach and the sea lion colony, entering the waters of the Gulf of California. Drop anchor in palm-lined Santa Maria Cove, where one has approximately one hour to snorkel or swim through waters teeming with colorful tropical fish, including Moorish Idols and King and Cortez anglefish. Chileno Bay Snorkeling - Board the Tropicat, one of the premier sailing vessels in Cabo complete with water slide and ample space for enjoying the warm sunshine. Cruise past the famed Lover's Beach, the sea lion colony and towering rock formations of Land's End heading across the bay eastward down the coast towards Chileno Bay. Located about 11 miles from Cabo San Lucas, Chileno Bay's reef is teeming with fish such as Moorish Idols, King and Cortes Angelfish. One will have approximately two hours to relax on the boat, snorkel or enjoy complimentary beverages. For the adventurous not interested in snorkeling, take a short swim and hit the beach in search of long lost treasure buried in the sands. During the return trip to Cabo San Lucas, lounge across the bow nets of the catamaran and enjoy an assortment of finger food and drinks from the open bar. If anyone has any insight into either of the two excursions, please post a response. John |

I hope anyone with info re Cabo snorkeling who has been there on ships other
than Princess will also respond. We'll be in Cabo on the Norwegian Star this February. I suspect all lines probably have the same or very similar tours offered, with the same local vendors. |

I suspect all lines probably have the same or very similar tours offered, with the same local vendors. We were there recently on the Sapphire Princess. I found the "Sun Rider" tour to Santa Maria bay via some searching. Here is a description of it - though I would use this page for information only: http://sportfishingcabo.hypermart.net/snorkeling.html I made a reservation for the Sun Rider by googling "Sun Rider" Cabo and finding the phone number. At $40 each, it was a good value - we got to see some whales and they were generous with the drinks. I'm not a big snorkeler, but there were enough fish for me to be happy. They seem to operate primarily as a comp for people touring time shares - I think we were the only paying customers that trip. There were also a number of vendors on the pier hawking the Oceanus for $20 - not sure if that is for the full tour though. Enjoy your trip! |
