Highlights
  • 22W6+VX La Ventana - We pick you up in the day trip transportation. We will drive for 1.5 hours to road stop restaurant breakfast and bathroom break (all dietary requirements catered for).\n\nWe arrive in La Ventana once hour after that and meet the panga boat directly at the beach. Snorkelers board the boat over the side from the beach/shallow water and so basic mobility for this is required. \n\nOnce in the boat we search for the wildlife for anything between 4-6 hours. We picnic on the boat before heading in to shore. We stop for bathroom breaks on the way back to Cabo and there is also an option to purchase take-out snacks and drinks if you wish.

Additional Information

During April-June we are witnesses to the incredible mobula ray aggregation here in Baja. They travel in ‘fevers’ or

‘squadrons’ of hundreds and thousands between the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific Ocean. We will witness individuals launching themselves far out of the water in an acrobatic display of communication. Once in the water we see the HUGE squadron of thousands of individuals cruising around together. Join our open-ocean day safari to Cerralvo Island (Jacques Cousteau Island); a more secluded area of Baja Sur where you can spend a day away from busy Cabo enjoying the unique and stunning mobula ray encounter. And it’s not just the mobula rays! It’s possible to also see Orcas, sperm whales, whale sharks and swim with wild dolphins.

If you're a newer diver, this is the company for you!!! - Whereas we didn't see the big migration of Mobula Rays, we had SUCH an amazing time with both David and Ophelia. My friend and I were new to diving, and Ophelia made us feel so safe and secure. She took the extra time to explain some of the diving techniques and also enhanced our experience by educating us about the local marine life and behaviors. While we do not have too much experience with different scuba companies, we already know we would 10/10 go with Cabo Private Guides again. If you are looking for a local company to go diving or snorkling with, this is the company for you!!!!

Best Mobula ray experience - Such an amazing trip! They didn’t have enough people sign up for today and let us do a private tour for just a bit more. We saw a ton of Mobula rays and a variety of fish. David was our tour guide and he was extremely knowledgeable and passionate about ocean wildlife. They worked hard to looked for the rays and took us to the best snorkeling spots. Highly recommend! They also gave us the go pro footage which came out beautifully.

Best tour I have ever done in my whole life. Saw a big amount of wildlife! - This was the best tour of my life. Ophelia was the tour guide and she deserves the best! She provided us with so many information, we saw hundreds of dolphins , thousands of mobula rays and we even had lunch at a remote island and I believe this whole trip will be unforgettable and I consider myself lucky to experience the specific phenomenon!

10/10 Would go again!! - The trip to see the mobulars was amazing!! We got picked up early in the morning by Pedro and whisked off to La Vantana to see some mobulars. It was about a 2hr drive mid way we stopped at this cute little traditional restaurant for breakfast. When we got to La Vantana we saw so many mobulars jumping and knew it was time to get in the water with them. We even saw a blue whale just chilling in the surface. It was amazing to see. When he/she came up to take a breath his/her body just kept going. What a wonder it was to see the planets largest animal in person. The journey back went past so quickly as I must have fallen asleep in he vehicle. John was an amazing guide and had all our needs seen to. 10/10 would recommend

A fantastic day in La Ventana! - My partner and I went on a mobula ray ocean safari in La Ventana. We did the booking with Cris at the front desk, and the communication and organization for the trip were very clear and easy from the beginning :) The driver Pedro was super nice and our guide John was very knowledgeable and fun person. We saw mobulas, lots of dolphins and a blue whale! We also did a bit of snorkel on the amazing reef on Cerralvo island. We had a lovely day and we totally recommend CPG! Thank you guys :)

Mobula’s ….and more besides. Fantastic!! - Back to Cabo for the first time since Covid and our visit started with this mind blowing trip. It was everything we wanted. Apart from the mobula’s we also saw whales including an amazing double breath (no photo’s unfortunately)! Brilliantly well organised by Laura and her team we felt totally safe and had a great time. We’ll be back soon!!!!!
