5.00One of the funnest days on our week long stay in mexico. The crew was super friendly and helpful "Capitans Jorge and Jerry, joe were all awesome. Chef Eddie made the best food and drinks we had our entire time in Mexico. The boat was spacious and clean, more than enough room for the party people to party and the chill people to just chill. All the spots we went to were super nice and calm.
Great trip to snorkel in La Paz.

5.00We had a great time! Balandra and la Paz live up to their promised beauty. We enjoyed the boat ride, beach time, snorkeling, and kayaking. The boat crew and guides were helpful, knowledgeable, friendly, and dedicated to our safety and enjoyment, as well as the preservation of the area. Our only complaint is that it didn’t last longer! Would absolutely return in the future.
The best of La Paz

5.00Great experience with friendly and professional staff. Everything including hotel pick up and the excursion occurred in a timely manner. The cost was not bad given that it was almost a full day thing. The refreshments were some of the best I had, it was an actual meal with burritos and pasta compared to other excursions where it’s cold sandwiches. Will book again with Cabo adventures 😊
Great 10/10
