When we arrived in Cabo we tendered to the Marina and pd $5 pp to water taxi over to the beach area 5 mins away. There they have all kinds of water activities and restaurants. 2 of our group rented jet skis at a rate of $65pp for 1 hour. 3 of us pd $30 total for a glass bottom boat tour who took us over to Lovers beach and Lands End which lasted about an hour. We then had lunch at THE OFFICE which was very good but very pricey. The water taxi from the beach back to the Marina was only $3 pp....they try to get you to buy a round trip when you go over at $10 pp......My guess is that you can prob. neg. a better price getting to the beach at abt. $3 pp.....The water in Cabo was the nicest for water activities. The shopping area that is closest to the Marina when you get off the tender was disappointing since the vendors there don't seem to care if you buy or not....they were several dollars higher on the exact same things we found in Mazatlan and PV. The vendors were actually borderline rude.

How was the weather...leaving for Cabo & Ensenada (from San Diego) on 2/2?

Weather in San Diego this week has been in the 80's hope it stays this way for a few more weeks or is lousy untill the 31st but its usually nice here.

So, you took a boat to another beach? Can you explain exactly how that worked. We will be going in August via Elation. We don't want to pay for an hotel...nor an excursion. We will be there for two days.

So what you did sounds right up our alley. Basically we want to chill at a beach for the two days, inexpensively.

Your response is appreciated.

Our stop in Cabo was for 1 day, I think we arrived at like 8 am and left at 4 pm that same day. The ship does not dock in port, it is anchored just a short distance away and they have small tender boats that take you in, the tenders will not take you to a "beach" they will take you to an area where there are vendors and shopping, etc. From there however you can rent a water taxi for $5 per person and it will take you to the beach area with the restaurants and water activities. So if you wanted to just relax on the beach, you can tender in, catch a water taxi to the beach ( there is more than one beach ) the other beach is entirely vacant, nothing there at all except the beach, both of these beaches can be seen from the ship. We went to the one that had the restaurants, entertainment and water activities, I think you pay to rent your chairs and umbrella for the day. I'm not sure, but you might be able to find a "land" taxi to drive you over to the beach as well........Hope this helps.
