Must do activity in Cabo
I had the best time during the whale watching tour. Our tour guide was informative and taught us a lot about the whales and conservation efforts. The lunch was very good, and I appreciated the drinks. The catamaran was very comfortable. If you go definitely don't forget your sunscreen.

A wonderful adventure full of music and friends 🎶 🌊🤿
Claudio, Fabian, Bruno, and Jesus were wonderful. They were polite, helpful, and fun. They brought us to an awesome spot for snorkelling and we saw so many fishes! The food was also top notch.
