Itinerary
-
We will navigate through the marine park of Cabo San Lucas and see some of the most famous landscapes from Baja California, the notorious Arch of Cabo San Lucas, the Lovers beach, and the beautiful shoreline of Baja on the way. During the humpback whale season (nov-april) we might watch them breaching or surfacing too. Mobulas are also frequently early in the morning and late afternoon (May and December). Marlins, sea lions, sea turtles, among many other marine animals can be seen on our way, including many kinds of sea birds too!
Once we arrive, the crew will start attracting the sharks with chum (made of 100% fish within the sharks diet) and your tour guide will give a presentation about our work, shark ecology and conservation efforts in the area. If you decide to swim with the sharks, you will also attend the mandatory safety briefing with the in-water procedures and all you should and should not do during the dive.
Once the shark arrives, your safety diver will be the first one to get in the water. Follow the guides instruction and enjoy the sharks with safety and respect! Sharks may come very close to the boat and observers will also be able to see them from above.
Meeting point
The meeting point is in the Marina in Cabo San Lucas, in front of the tourist attention center building (CATTAC - Pabellon Cultural). If coming from main street (Boulevard Paseo de la Marina), your reference should be the main public car parking (Lote 8) or restaurant captain Tony in the marina.
