Cabo San Lucas: glass-bottom boat ride to “End of the Earth”

2.Cabo San Lucas: glass-bottom boat ride to “End of the Earth”

★★★★★★★★★★3.8 · 6 reviews · from $75

You’ll ride from Cabo San Lucas or San José del Cabo to the Arch, Lover’s Beach, Divorce Beach, and San Andrés Cave. The boat has a glass-bottom viewing area, though it may be limited to two small windows. A bilingual guide, hotel pickup, water, and tequila tasting are included.

“Not as advertised. “Glass bottom boat” had minimal viewing capacity (just 2 ~2x3.5 ft windows in the bottom; perhaps this is the standard but it is not clear from the description). Had chosen this activity (and paid extra) for the opportunity to take the boat to lover’s beach (and walk on the beach) and was assured on scheduling that this is part of the itinerary “when the weather allows” but the boat guide clearly had no intention of stopping. Was thus a quick (45 min) ride to the arch and back and could see more fish out the sides of the boat than the bottom. The driver, however, was fantastic…”

45 Minute Transparent Boat Ride to the Arch of Cabo San Lucas

3.45 Minute Transparent Boat Ride to the Arch of Cabo San Lucas

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 6 reviews · 45 minutes (approx.) · from $45

Board a fully transparent boat in Cabo San Lucas for a short, photo-friendly trip around Lands End. You’ll stop at the Arch, look through the clear bottom at Pelican Rock, circle Lovers and Divorce Beach, and spot sea lions and rock formations. English service, bottled water, and groups of up to 14 are included.

“We had a fantastic time on the boat ride and it was so cool that the entire boat was transparent! Our guide took great pictures and gave helpful tips for shots. The photos they offered were also reasonable and really easy to download. The only tricky part was finding them on the crowded marina on a cruise ship day.”
