Highlights
  • Acceso a Playa El Chileno - This experience is great for couples and families with kids that want to have a nice, quiet beach experience away from the crowds!
    We begin the experience by meeting at a public beach, all you need to do is bring yourself, a swimming suit and a towel. I will supply you with snorkeling gear, beach chairs, umbrella, snacks, and cold drinks. Once we have everything ready, we will start our short 20 minute journey to the hidden beach. We will pass the crowded beach along a small rock path that leads to the hidden beach that only a few locals know about. On the rock path, we will have fabulous views of the Sea of Cortez that stretches over the horizon!
    Here, the fun begins! After setting up the umbrella and getting situated, we snorkel out to the coral reef just a short swim out to the ocean. There, we will find over 20 different species of fish and will spend as much time in the water as needed, exploring our surroundings. Whenever we’re all ready to head back to the beach, I will share with you chips and home-made guacamole prepared fresh by me! We can also have drinks and relax, tan and snack. The rest of the time is spent how you want to spend it.

Amazing Snorkeling - 100% recommend - We had excellent snorkeling experience! We booked it last minute thanks to Mireya responding promptly and making a room for us on her busy day for private tour. We had the whole beach to ourselves. Mireya took time and made us comfortable in the water before guiding us around the reef to beautiful fish and corals. Fresh Guacamole was awesome treat.

Chileno's Gentle Magic: A Snorkeling Adventure for Every Experience Level - This was our very first snorkeling experience and Mireya made us as comfortable as we could get. My wife was super anxious but Mireya made sure she was comfortable and held on to her for the entire experience since she had a shoulder injury and was not in full control. We are both novice swimmers (and only pools) and this was very comfortable for us. The beach is a little away from the crowded part of Chileno beach and felt like a private beach just for us. The freshly made guacamole and chips and beer just made it more special. Just one thing to note there is a small hike to get to this part of the beach so be prepared to carry beach chair along your way and wear comfortable shoes. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking to experience snorkeling.

Tons of fun!! - My friend and I did this snorkeling experience with Mariana and Aurora and it was fantastic! Even though I knew I was going snorkeling and hiking, it did not occur to me to take my water shoes. I only had flip flops but was still able to complete the short hike over rocks. I definitely recommend taking better shoes that can get wet - not doing so was my fault! Loved the beach and calm demeanor of both guides. Aurora took us in the water while Mariana watched over our things and watched us from the beach. We saw lots of really cool fish - bugle, puffer, and many other beautiful fish that I cannot remember the names of. We loved this tour, our guides, and the experience! We really highly recommend and I will definitely do with them again the next time I go to Cabo!!

Best Girl’s Trip Activity - This tour was absolutely phenomenal! Our guides, Marianna and Aurora, were so kind, so knowledgeable and so much fun. They made sure all of us were able to keep up with the hike, they explained each part of the tour so well and had so much fun enjoying the experience with us. We had various levels of snorkeling experience and they were so accommodating. I would recommend this tour to absolutely everyone and especially if you are lucky enough to be guided by Marianna and Aurora, you are guaranteed an amazing experience. We cannot wait to come back and book this tour again!

Intimate scuba with great guides. - Gorge and Captain Mariya provide such an amazing experience. They know so much about the local land and fauna and have lots to teach you. We booked as a couple and one other nice couple joined us The waves were big on the day we booked. Mariya reached out to us to let us know that the trail would be very hard with the waves and they had another spot to go where the waves stay small despite the tide. Great communication. we went to a spot called Pelican Rock. It still had heaps of fish and sealions. We got a full historical tour too. All the equipment was clean and worked well. Her guac is AMAZING Beers and waters provided. Overall very fun Had a great time. Couldn't recommend them enough!

Amazing time snorkeling with Mireya and Jorge - Jorge and Mireya are amazing guides. This 62 year grandma could not make the hike. Jorge was so helpful to get me as far as I could but we had to turn back. Jorge went on with the other couple and Mireya took me and my granddaughters back and we snorked in the bay. They were so kind and took care of everything. They brought special snack for the kids since they do not like guacamole. Mireya, made fresh guacamole right there on the beach and it was amazing. I would highly recommend this activity for anyone. The hike is over large rocks and there is a climb. The girls and other couple did it no problem.

Great Time w/ Belem & Mariana! - My kids and I had a great time w/ Belem & Mariana - they were very organized, friendly, and took care of us, especially my 2 younger daughters. They very much care about animal life, and they taught us a lot about the local ecosystem. We'd love to join them on their whale-watching expeditions if we ever return during whale season. They were patient w/ my daughter when she experienced trouble w/ the snorkel equipment (and when I did too), and when we had to leave the water early to deal with it. They also added a nice touch by bringing all the ingredients for fresh tabletop guacamole/chips (as well as drinks). We had a great time & highly rec them!

Disappointed - Operator cancelled our tour at 8pm the day before we were supposed to have our tour. They did this at the end of our trip so we were unable to reschedule. We ended up just Ubering to the same beach with a cooler and beach blanket and we had pretty much the same experience for far less. You can rent snorkel gear and beach gear right at the beach just bring your own drinks.
