Slide off the dock at Marina Cabo San Lucas and spend two hours aboard a private 45ft yacht cruising past El Arco, snorkeling near Pelican Rock, and watching sea lions bask on sunlit rocks. This intimate charter pairs coastal sightseeing with hands-on snorkeling and a professional crew—ideal for groups wanting a high-comfort, low-hassle ocean escape.

The marina smells like diesel and citrus—salt in the air, cold cerveza sweating in the shade—and the 45-foot hull rocks gently as the crew cinches the fenders. You step aboard, the captain nods, and the yacht slips away from the dock. The town’s roofs shrink and the arches of rock come forward: El Arco looms, sea-sculpted and patient, while crowds on Lover’s Beach watch sea lions sunbathe like local celebrities.

Arrive Early for Check-in
Meet at Gregory Tours’ surfboard sculpture at least 15 minutes before departure to complete boarding formalities and pay the $1 dock fee.
Use Reef-Safe Sunscreen
Protect coral and your skin—apply reef-safe sunscreen before boarding since reapplying in saltwater is less effective.
Secure Footwear
Wear non-slip deck shoes or sandals; the yacht’s deck can be slick when wet and traction helps while boarding and snorkeling.
Bring a Dry Bag
Keep valuables and electronics dry—small dry bags fit under seats and protect phones and wallets from spray.
Reef-safe sunscreen
Protects skin and local coral ecosystems during sun-heavy trips.
