It was beyond amazing swimming with those whale sharks! - Joe was a wonderful guide. Everyone we encountered was VERY helpful and nice. Mario also gave us lots of information about the excursion. I can't remember everyone's name. The day just flowed really well. I would do it again in a heartbeat. If I had one small negative thing to say ti would be,to have a little bigger changing room for when we put our wet suits on. We made it work just fine though.

Go and have an amazing experience - This excursion was worth getting up early!! It was a bday trip for my bf and we loved every minute. Cabo Adventures is very organized and reliable. We were picked up right on time, had an educated and charming host Mario, drove up to La Paz and the capt found whale sharks right away. Such beautiful and gentle creatures. They even made me a special gluten free lunch after!! Once in a lifetime experience :)

Once in a lifetime experience - This was amazing! We’ve been wanting to see whale sharks for ages, and haven’t had luck the last few years at other locations . The whole experience was perfect. Well organized, great staff, especially Mario or overall guide, Louis or driver, and Joe our diving guide. They did a great job laying at all of the rules, which I think is really important because if you’re going to see these wonderful creatures, you need to make sure you protect them as well. They had a lot of humor and great energy. Obviously, they love the work they do. They made everyone feel safe and make sure each person had a wonderful experience. Highly, highly recommend. Snorkeling with a whale’s sharks was truly magical and I’m so glad I had a chance to do it with this group.

This was the trip of a lifetime! - My mom and I did the whale shark snorkeling
This was a bucket list item for mom. We are trying to complete her list due to being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Mario was our host and our guide, and held her hand every step of the way! He made sure she felt comfortable and safe the entire trip! My heartfelt gratitude to Mario and Cabo Adventures! This was the trip of a lifetime!

Whale Shark Snorkeling—a success!!! - The whole experience was amazing! Our guide, Mario, did an excellent job of explaining all safety precautions and rules, as well as provide a fun experience overall.
Mario went above and beyond to make this experience great for us first-time snorkelers! We jumped 3 times and swam alongside the whale shark all 3 times! We felt safe, informed, and we had such an amazing time.
It’s a 2-hour drive from Cabo to La Paz but we got to stop at an organic market along the way for some strawberries and cream. Then later, after snorkeling, we had delicious fish tacos at the Marina. The whole day was incredible and we’ll definitely be back next season!
