    Where do I even start. The animal sanctuary was so cool. Very interactive and the guide keeps us more hands on. The birds are the highlight of the animal sanctuary. Secondly, the ATV and UTV rides. Were AMAZING, our guide Richard was the best tour guide I’ve ever had for any tour. He loves his job and makes sure to share that love with you. He took very good care of us and let us push the ATV and UTV to its limit. Best UTV and ATV ever tour ever. The zip lines were so cool. With 3 zip lines. One crazier after the last. Beware it’s a lot of walking. From zip line to zip line. The canal ride is short but honestly it was good. They keep the ride short keeping the camal’s health in mind. And gave us a show after, filled with amazing memories. We ended our day with the swing. I say it’s a must do. They kept it safe and made sure you felt safe at the same time. I forgot my screw to attach my go pro and they let me borrow theirs and made sure I had everything I needed to capture my videos. The photos and videos they took were so good. Super fun overall, worth every penny.

    Tips: we got the day pass so we were able to do everything in the park except the horseback riding. The park was not busy at all, so it’s doable to get to every activity in a day. The restaurants there are good and not expensive. If you want to use your go pro you must pay $30 to use. They offer renting of go pro if you would like. If you want individual pictures it’s $25 each or $110 for all. Very expensive but my girlfriend couldn’t pass out on the amazing shots they took. They picked us up and dropped us off to our hotel. The ATV and UTV gets very dirty quick so wear clothes appropriately. You will be under the sun a lot. Keep that mind.

    Way better than I expected! Easy hike , rewarded w spectacular views. You can definitely go as a family- lots kids maybe 8-10 and up. Plenty of time to soak in the views at the top. The guide is quirky, passionate and lays out the rules clearly at the beginning.
    No advantage getting there early. 15-20$ 30 min Uber from nobu. Rec los claros for lunch at the marina- delicious ! Go on this hike!

    My first liveaboard experience was to Socorro in the Revillagigedo Archipelago on the Nautilus Adventure’s Belle Amie out of Cabo San Lucas. I was out there to see big fauna -- manta rays, dolphins, and sharks – and the trip certainly delivered. Beyond that, I was extraordinarily impressed with the ship and the crew. The Belle Amie is a 147 foot boat with a spacious top deck (deck chairs for the sun and stargazing plus a hot tub) and plentiful room in the shared living spaces and dining area. The trip out to the archipelago takes 1.5 days out so the extra room is a wonderful asset. Also, on my trip, the ocean had a bit of swell at times so I was thankful for the boat size. My stateroom had a comfy bed and a private shower. But, what really impressed me was the crew, who worked tirelessly to make us comfortable on the trip. Food started before our first dive at 7 am, and we were welcomed on the dive deck before and after our dives with Gatorade/water to rehydrate. The food was great. I frankly was blown away by the dive masters who motored around before we woke and into the evening getting our tanks etc. set for our 4x/day dives and who seemed impervious to the nitrogen loading that started to slow me down by week’s end. A heads-up to the diver that you will be diving a fair bit at depth, so being nitrox certified is urged, and there can be strong current and surge, so I was thankful to have 100 dives under my belt to manage my bottom times at depth. I thank the Belle Amie crew for a wonderful time – I’d go back in a heartbeat!

    Amazing experience!! The trainers (especially Max) and photographers are awesome. I never felt unsafe. I did the 40 min experience and totally recommend. We got lots of hands-on time with the dolphins! It felt sufficient. The staff take amazing care of the dolphins, too! They are so happy and friendly!

    We had a blast intermingling with the people of Cabo! The photo scavenger hunt is the best..... Get as crazy and creative as you want....... the evidence is all in the photo. Have fun and be safe...

    The Luxury Whale watching cruise was excellent. Great, knowledgeable crew lead a tour that blessed participants with 13 whale sightings. The boot was very comfortable and drinks and refreshments were perfect for the 11 am cruise. We’ve gone on many whale watching cruises and this was the best we’ve experienced.

    There is a reason the reviews are so good for Blue Sky. They are great. Staff is great and our two trips were so fun. We did a 5 hour fishing and a whale watching trip. Super service and staff. Very thorough preparation and lots of communication.

    We had a great trip! We went on a four hour trip and saw so much including whales, sea lions and dolphins. The scenery was breathtaking and the service was top notch. Definitely book your private yacht tour with this company, Israel, Richard andJavier made us feel like royalty! Thank you so much for a beautiful day!

    Our 7th tour in 4 years with Whale Watch Cabo where we thought we had seen everything, think again!

    So many whales, at least 30 breaches including a double breach of mother & baby, our tour was as usual faultless, expert guide, a company that truly cares and respects the whales and will certainly back should we be lucky to visit again.

    This really is a Bucket List experience and can’t recommend them enough - THANK YOU

    My girlfriend and I went with Dive Cabo to finish her open water certification. I’m a rescue diver with many years of experience but this was her first time diving. Our guide Luca as well as the rest of the staff were incredible to work with! The dive shop was easy to find, great to work with ahead of time, and showed us an amazing time. I would highly recommend them for divers of all levels. We look forward to coming back soon!

    Amazing! We saw a baby humpback whale with its mother and two males. Absolutely beautiful, especially as we watched them breach against the setting sun. Ourarine biologist guide and boat captain were both fabulous and informative. Highly recommend.

    We recently scheduled three charters with the Pisces Fleet aboard the 31’ Bertram, ‘Tracy Ann’. A Marlin had been on my bucket list for a number of years, and I was determined to catch one this year with my 82 yr old Father. Over the course of the three trips, we managed to catch 12 Striped Marlin up to 160lbs. Wow! I can’t speak highly enough about the experience. The Boat, captain and crew as well as the tackle on board were all first class. I loved it so much, we are going back in 2025 and will be booking again with Pisces

    Did the referral dive program to complete my 4 dives with them after completing the first half of training back at home. Their facilities and boat are definitely high quality with good equipment and the instructors and staff are top notch dive masters. My instructor Mercedes who came here to teach from Spain & Italy was amazing. She was extremely patient and spent the time to ensure that I understood all of the skills properly. We worked on each of the skills required for certification, but also went above and beyond to continue to refine some of the skills that I felt less comfortable with too. She even helped me to learn more advanced skills just for fun that weren't required for the basic certification.

    Apart from the certification, the 4 dives were absolutely incredible. Mercedes was able to spot and show me things underwater that I would have never seen on my own. We even came face to face with a sea lion, rays, and small reef shark!

    I know that they are supposed to be the top dive shop in Cabo, but diving and quality of instructors completely surpassed my expectations! All of the staff is incredibly down to earth and very friendly. Even after the dive, they took the time to welcome my wife who didn't even dive with us and gave us restaurant recommendations from a locals perspective (all amazing!). Will definitely be returning to dive with them again.
