Breathtaking Cabo Pulmo Snorkel: Mexico's Must-See Reef

I would recommend this tour for several reasons. I emailed them and they responded quickly and answered my questions and then offered us a decent price for tour. They also picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel , which was a must for us. The crew of Jesus and captain Christian were more then qualified to make sure you are safe on the water, Jesus makes sure everyone is close to his lead and Christian is very good with boat to round you up when snorkel location is over. We had the opportunity to follow several Humpback whales which was an added bonus. They also stopped by a dive site and let us hang over boat with mask and snorkel to get our eyes on a Bull shark on a wreck below us. I am a certified diver and did not get to Scuba this trip but enjoyed the snorkeling with the wife. Gil was our driver for the 2hr drive up to Pulmo and he was great and was able to share a delicious lunch that is included with tour. Cabo Pulmo is a rustic and cool place to check out, whether you are diving or snorkeling it is the place to experience. Thank you much.

Awesome experience with guides Jerry, Muneco, and addy. We got to stop by the arches for pictures, snorkel amongst a bunch of fish with our guide pointing out what they were, and lastly we got lucky and saw two humpback whales surface 100 feet away from our boat.

We took a Cabo Adventures Cruise and it was amazing. The crew was great. Marko made sure we were taken care of and was always working. My dad is 87 and he made sure we had a nice place in the shade on the boat and he was taken care of. I would highly suggest this crew and this tour. My daughter loved the paddle boarding. Lunch and drinks were great! Thanks for the great experience.

Amazing snorkeling experience. Great visibility and lots of fish. Both the driver and the guide were awesome.

First off, you should do this if you're at all curious, if only to see what's it like and what's happening outside the main tourist area. It's changing fast. Secondly, you will likely have at least one excellent snorkel out of the three or four drop spots, with turtles and schools of circling fish and eels and other highlights. The reefs are protected and the coral seems fairly healthy. One deeper water drop was kind of a bust and the current at another was quite challenging, but you never know. If you're thinking of going, you probably won't care that the drive is a bit long, the last bit over super bumpy roads, and that the guidance, while friendly, is a bit vague. The fiberglass boats are spare and you can't bring towels on them, but whether they tell you or not you need to bring anything else you think you might want, like something to blow your nose or wipe your eyes, and stow it in open compartments. There is no dock, no landing. The "Pulmo style" of embarcation is to sit on the boat on the beach while it's backed into the water by the dive guide in a pickup while the captain starts the outboard motor, and when you're done, you jump off the side of the boat into shallow water and then walk in through the surf. It was a bit more physical than I expected. Lunch was Baja fish tacos at a beach shack restaurant in the little town, you have to pay for your Pacifica but you earned it. It's about as authentic Baja as you can get on a day trip from a fancy resort.

We had an awesome experience! We certainly will use this company again. Fernando was our snorkeling guide and he helped us every step of the way.

The 2 hour ride to and back was just not worth it for us. It was very primitive , bumpy dirt road out for the last couple miles, garbage everywhere ( that's just Mexico) , no running water to shower off ocean water. it trickles out shower head. We were expecting to go to the actual national park entrance and at least read some material or get some information on the park. Guide was great and first stop was great the next two were good as well, but out in the middle of a dive site 5 out of 7 of us got nauseated.

I’ve snorkeled a lot, and was surprised both how average Cabo Pulmo was , and how little we got to actually snorkel. We were picked up at Cabo Dolphin at 8 am, got to Cabo Pulmo and were in boat by 10:30. Snorkeled around and went to a couple sites, saw various schools of fish, sea turtles but that was the highlight. If you’re looking for bright coral, you won’t find it at Cabo Pulmo but I should’ve researched that ahead of time. The part that surprised me most was how little we got to snorkel. We snorkeled until around 12:30 pm id say? Then had lunch (ok tacos, no complaints) and were back by like 3. Maybe it’s just me, but for $270 per person I would’ve expected more than just 2 hours of snorkeling. Especially since the website says it’s a 10 hour excursion, which I guessed would mean about 4 hours of snorkel time. (10 - 2 hrs getting there -2 hrs getting back - .5 lunch - 1 hour buffer time). If it’s your first time snorkeling, and you have money to spend, it’s not a bad trip. But I wish we saved our money instead for say another day in San Jose Del Cabo

This was a super fun first experience snorkeling for my 14 year old son. The driver, boat captain, and snorkel guide were a great team. We were well taken care of and the lunch spot was a fun local spot with great food. We had 3 snorkel spots from the boat. Highlight of snorkeling was the crazy big school of Jack fish! A very memorable day! A big thumbs up!

Leo and the entire crew did a wonderful job keeping us safe and and the water was great the entire trip was fabulous, we did snorkeling in two different bays with lots of fish and fun.
