What to expect

  1. Arch of Cabo San Lucas
    10m
    Your adventure begins at Cabo’s most famous landmark — the dramatic rock formation where the Pacific Ocean meets the Sea of Cortez. Your captain slows the boat so you can take photos, learn about the history of Land’s End, and watch for the first signs of whale activity in the surrounding waters.
  2. Pelican Rock
    10m
    Next, you’ll cruise past Pelican Rock, a towering formation known for its crystal‑clear water and abundant marine life. Keep your eyes open — dolphins, sea lions, and tropical fish often appear here, and whales sometimes surface nearby as they move through the bay.
  3. Divorce Beach
    10m
    Your route continues past Lover’s Beach on the Sea of Cortez side and Divorce Beach on the Pacific side — two stunning stretches of sand divided by towering granite formations. These beaches create a breathtaking backdrop for photos and often serve as a quiet stage for whale sightings just offshore.
  4. Chileno Bay Los Cabos
    20m
    After exploring Cabo’s iconic landmarks, your captain heads into the open ocean to search for humpback whales, gray whales, and other marine giants. Depending on the day’s conditions, you may witness:

    Breaching

    Tail slaps

    Spyhopping

    Mothers teaching calves

    Whales cruising alongside the boat

    Every trip is different — and every encounter is unforgettable.
