Cabo San Lucas Diving & Snorkeling
Cabo San Lucas is the perfect place for diving or snorkeling because it is teeming with undersea life. Underwater visibility can reach 120 feet at times. Water temperatures can soar into the low 80's in summer and the 70's at other times of the year. Several shipwrecks, caves and canyon dives are available.
Dive Locations near Cabo include: Anegada, Land's End, The Blowhole, Cabo Pulmo, Socorro Island, Gorda Banks, La Larga and the Sand Falls. Two of the most popular dives include Cabo Pulmo and Sand Falls. The National Marine Reserve of Cabo Pulmo in the East Cape offers shallow water dives with colorful fish on a live coral reef (the only one found on North America's west coast). Just off the tip of Land's End in Cabo San Lucas, you'll find the undersea Sand Falls, discovered by Jacques Costeau,. A cascading fall of sand forms a unique spectacle on this wall dropping 1,200 feet. This 90 foot deep water dive offers a glimpse of some of the tropical sand larger fish.
There are many small coves and beaches for Cabo San Lucas snorkeling including beautiful Santa Maria Bay, Playa Palmilla, Chilleno Bay, and famous Playa del Amor (Lover's Beach) at Land's end.
Cabo San Lucas Surfing & Windsurfing
The tip of the Baja Peninsula offers many areas for the surfer including Todos Santos to the north and the East Cape, heading east and northeast of San Jose del Cabo. Local surf is available with Zippers near San Jose del Cabo as one of the popular spots. If you are interested in windsurfing, head for Los Barriles and Buenavista north of San Jose del Cabo for some famous spots.
Costa Azul offers the best waves for surfers especially during the months between June and October. The most ideal place for Windsurfing is 45 miles north of Los Cabos airport at Los Barriles. For those who want to stay local, the main beach area in Cabo San Lucas offers
body surfing waves and afternoon winds. Check our the various activity vendors on the
main beach area.
Cabo San Lucas Parasailing
Parasailing occurs daily from several vendors off the main public beach area. Parasailing rates are from $30 for 10 minutes on a 600-foot line. There are several companies in Cabo San Lucas to choose from, as well as one in San José del Cabo located along Palmilla or Costa Azul beaches. Parasailing is a Los Cabos vacation memory that will last a lifetime.
Cabo San Lucas Kayaking, Canoeing and Jetskiing
El Medano Beach is the place to go to rent all water sports equipment. A variety of equipment may be rented. Half day or full day rentals are available. A paddle kayak or canoe will cost between $10 to $15 per hour. Prices for a Jet Ski or Waverunner run around $35 per half hour, to $60 per hour.
Cabo San Lucas Glass Bottom Boat Tours
The Cabo San Lucas Glass Bottom Boat Tour starts from the JT Watersports tent on Medano Beach, and takes you out to Land's End to see the Sea Lion Colony and multitudes of sea life just under the surface. The tour itself takes about 45 minutes. You will then drop you off at Lover's Beach (if you want) where you can stroll either the Pacific side, or the Sea of Cortez side. This is a great area for snorkeling too, and you can get a great deal by reserving the tour and rental of snorkeling equipment at the same time. The boat will pick you up whenever you are ready, for the short ride back to Medano Beach. Cost is $10 per person and $18 per person with snorkel equipment.
