Dive into local beach life

Snorkel the Sea of Cortez
We will drive to the beach where we will hike for around 10 minutes until we get to our spot right in front of the reef. Then, we will gear up with our snorkel and mask to get in the water, we will swim from the beach around the reef looking for all the marine life that we can find: schools of fish, octopus, eels, and lots of amazing species! We will snorkel out the shore about 250 meters and then we will go back to the beach where we can hang and relax for a few minutes while enjoying the sun. Other things to note: This is not a snorkel class, if you require a class please book a private tour so we go to an easier spot with no coral and easier to learn. You dont need special shoes for the hike but sometimes flipflops dont grip very well, is not a hard hike, and i recomend you to bring a rashguard instead of sunscreen, and if you need a lifejacket please let me know so i bring one. The total duration of the activity is from the time I pick you up until I drop you off in Cabo San Lucas
