  • We try our very best to always be on time, but sometimes we experience a small delay, please be patient because we always come through. Your Satisfaction Guaranteed!
  • Please Note: This boat is not all glass bottom so do not expect the whole bottom of the boat to be glass which you won't find a boat all glass bottom anywhere in Cabo because it is against Government Boat Regulations therefore all glass bottom boats in Cabo are built the same way with a rectangle glass window which is considered the glass bottom boat in Mexico but some boats are small and other boats are big. If the whole bottom of the boat was glass bottom it would be dangerous because it can break and that would sink the boat. There's a reason why the bottom of the boats are not all glass for SAFETY reasons.. You can still see the fish through the glass and also on both sides of the boat. Just look at all of our pictures. If you want an all clear boat please book with us the all clear transparent boat we have online which costs more money and is the same tour as this except all clear transparent boat cannot drop off or pick up at the beach, but we can with this glass bottom boat tour.
  • This boat has a rectangle window glass bottom but not the whole bottom of the boat is glass. If you want an all clear transparent boat (not glass bottom) book the all clear boat with us.
  • Transportation Hotel pick up and drop off is NOT included.

Enjoyable ride to see the arch

Our capitan was Jesse. He gave a good little tour out to see the arch. I was worried that I would get motion sickness and Jesse assured me it would be fine. We saw sea lions , pelicans, and lots of fish. He pointed out the different beaches that we passed by. It was a fun trip

Great tour and snorkeling with Camila Tours!

My wife and I traveled to Baja California, San Jose del Cabo and La Paz, in early May. We decided to hire Camila Tours to take us out to El Arco and Pelican Rock where we spent time snorkeling. The boat captain was super friendly and knowledgeable as we took the tour around El Arco to the Pacific side of the Lands’ End enlightening us with the history of the area along with geologic and aquatic highlights. We then were dropped off at Pelican Rock for 1.5 hours of excellent snorkeling and sea lion gazing. The captain returned to pick us up to complete our half day experience and adventure to the very tip of Baja California! So, think about Camila Tours when taking your excursion to El Arco, snorkel at Pelican Rock and you won’t be disappointed!

Operator response

Thank you for your review Paul, but you actually mean Cabo Paradise Tours that you booked with. Thank you and we are here at your service anytime.

A crowded but fun experience

There are 2 options. We took he less expensive tour for 45 mins instead of including the whale watching part. 45 mins seems a little too short and each point of interest is passed by very quickly. Its not this company's fault. All tours run the same price for the same time frame. Its very crowded also with tons of boats circling the area. Our captain Jesse was nice fun and got us to the spots with plenty of time to get good pictures and enjoy the view. The harbor is also fun as pelicans and sea lions follow you along the whole time. For 30 dollars a person it is worth going once for sure!

Waters can be rough for whale watching, but our Captain—Ishmael—was fantastic. He was very skilled in getting us close to the whales. Definitely recommend.

The Arch, and Much More.

What a great experience! Our captain got us very close to everything, and pointed out all the rock formations and shapes. You can see why one was named "The Thinker." We saw the seals, and lots of fish near the snorkeling area. Our boat nestled into the arch area, and we saw it from all angles, including from behind. He found a spot on the ocean side, where the mini arch was visible through a small cave. The boat was very clean, and the captain used our camera to get us in a photo in several spots. Would certainly go again.

Fun little boat trip to the arches

It was pretty fun, you are on a boat that is honestly a little scary to me but that's because I am scared of deep water. My family LOVED it though, they took us over right up to the arches and stopped in several places near the arch. He said he would have went to the small beach but the water was too choppy so we didn't. He took us around to the other side of the arches into the ocean to show us a mansion that was build there near the beach, some celebrity. But it was really cool - I was just scared the whole time. lol Our family were the only ones on the boat. There were several other boats out there with us so that was a little crazy but they were all considerate of us - they were all touring too. The glass bottom is not really clear so that's not really a thing at least not on our boat.

The Old Man and the Sea

Captain Jesse was fantastic! Our driver got us to the harbor late and we missed our assigned time, but Jesse took us out individually when he returned. He went above and beyond to take care of us to make sure that we got out to the arch, and he was very funny and very informative. He also handles the boat extremely well. If you decide to take this excursion, I highly recommend Captain Jesse Cabo!

The Arch but much more.

We had a great time. Started the tour when the Captain offered us a beer. It only got better from there. We saw all the sights and spent time whale watching. The Captain was accommodating and let us decide how to use our time.

Great boat captain and tour guide.

Jesse was our captain and he was an excellent pilot and tour guide. He told us lots about the Cabo area and the rock formations that we sailed past. He got us closer to the rocks than any other boat, took some great free pics of us near the arch and even tried to catch up will a nearby whale.
