Snorkeling in the best reefs in San Jose del Cabo

About

This four-hour snorkeling trip runs out of San José del Cabo and targets the better reef sites along the coast. It's Viator-partnered (5 stars across 13 reviews), which puts it in the reliable middle tier — decent gear, competent guides, nothing fancy. The $150 price point includes equipment and usually a guide who knows where the fish stack up depending on swell and season. Four hours means you're hitting at least two sites, probably one near shore and one deeper drop if conditions allow. The reef structure here isn't as dramatic as Cabo Pulmo farther north, but you'll see schooling tropicals, puffers, and occasional rays without the crowds. Go in the morning when visibility is cleaner and before wind picks up in the afternoon. If you've never snorkeled in Cabo water, bring a wetsuit top — it's warmer than the Pacific side but still pulls heat fast at depth.
