Estimates based on the tour's longest published duration, our researched travel times and typical pier queues. Confirm the departure time on the booking page and keep your watch on ship's time.

Our verdict

This tour fits a typical Cabo San Lucas call (8:00 am–3:30 pm). It runs 4 h; ashore by 8:45 am, you can start by 9:00 am and be back at the gangway around 1:15 pm — 45 min to spare on top of a 1 h safety margin.

Rule of thumb: it keeps the safety margin as long as all aboard is 2:45 pm or later. Even a short 7:00 am–2:00 pm call works.

We don't have a verified start point for this tour yet, so we assume 15 min each way from the pier — the typical ride in Cabo San Lucas. Check the meeting point on the booking page.

Among the 397 Cabo San Lucas shore excursions we track, this is one of the longer ones (the median runs 2 h 45 min); 86% of them fit a typical call. Cabo San Lucas is a tender port: we add 45 minutes to get ashore and keep you back 30 minutes before all aboard for the last tender.

Computed from the tour's published duration, the distance from the cruise pier to its start point and the typical Cabo San Lucas call. Adjust your ship's times above to recheck.

About this tour

Our private dive tours give you a chance to depart early and escape the crowd in busy Cabo San Lucas. You can also select a slightly later time if you prefer to sleep in! This tour is particularly suitable for very advanced divers and very new divers. We want advanced divers to dive according to their air consumption rate and comfort level and not have to accommodate others on the boat that might limit the dive. For very new divers you have a free refresher included and we go at your pace and very easy locations - if you wish! It's totally your call. In addition, our guides have a guaranteed minimum experience level of at least 6 months working as a guide in the local area with at least 1 year working as a dive professional. Our crew are very conscious of human impact on the environment and for this reason all of our tours are conducted in an environmentally responsible way.
