Heading to Cabo St Lucas? You will have a variety of activities to consider. We recommend moving snorkeling to the top of your list. This is one activity that you will never forget. If you love the water and underwater life, this is a must-do! If you’ve never been snorkeling, you should definitely give it a try.

If you need some convincing, take a look at these 5 reasons you need a snorkeling tour in Cabo.

1. Anyone Can Do It

When you’re looking at activities, you find that some activities have different rules and restrictions. Something might restrict you for your weight or height. Other activities could have restrictions based on various health conditions. Of course, then there are the activities that aren’t kid-friendly or perhaps not senior-friendly.

That’s not the case with snorkeling, though. As long as you can follow instructions and get in and out of the water, you can snorkel. There are some limited age restrictions for children, but pretty much anyone over the age of 6 can go snorkeling. Children do need to have adults with them to do so.

It’s refreshing to have an activity that doesn’t limit you so much. There are a variety of different snorkeling tours, so you have the ability to choose what seems to fit you best.

2. A Whole New World

Have you ever seen “The Little Mermaid”? Under the water, it truly is a whole different world than what you see above it. The only way to experience it is to head beneath the water yourself.

You can see habitats of many creatures, and you will see a variety of water life, from dolphins to fish and many other animals as well. Also, things like reefs, anemones, sea stars, octopus, and so much more live under the water.

The undersea world will have beautiful colors and amazing things to see. You will never see some of these things outside of the water. The only way to experience that whole new world is through snorkeling.

One of the reasons that you come to Cabo is to make memories. Snorkeling is one great way to make lasting memories. This is an adventure you will remember the rest of your life.

The really cool part is you can even take pictures of those memories under the water.

You could snorkel every day or every time you come to Cabo. No matter how often you do, you will always see something new and different when you do. You deserve to make memories on every trip that you take. Think about what kind of memories you will make here. You will cherish those forever.

4. Variety of Choices

There is no one-size-fits-all tour here. When you’re in Cabo St Lucas, you will have choices. Plan on spending several hours to cruise out to your snorkel location, spend time in the water, and then return to shore.

There are also cruise options that take you out, let you swim and snorkel, and then host a party on the way back. Some of the options have different locations they visit, which means different sights to see.

You can also go scuba diving if you like. This is a bit more detailed and will take you deeper beneath the water.

Just like there are different choices for your preferences, there are different budget ranges, too.

5. Health Benefits

  • Cardiovascular health
  • Breathing improvements
  • Mental health

What to Expect When Snorkeling in Cabo St Lucas

It’s a good idea to plan for your adventures and have some basic idea of what to expect. If you’ve been snorkeling, that’s great! However, each adventure is different.

In Cabo, you will likely head out on the Sea of Cortez, which has a reputation as one of the best sites for snorkeling.

The waters are calm and peaceful, giving you the chance to just enjoy the experience. The water is also warm and enjoyable thanks to the perfect weather almost all year long. If there are specific things you want to experience, simply look for that tour. Snorkeling with whale sharks costs a bit more, but it’s incredibly unique.

Treasure hunt, snorkel from a kayak, head out on a cruise, and just take advantage of the beauty around you.
