Duration: 6 hours
Experience: Basic snorkeling
Explore the southern coast of Baja, one of the best places in the world to encounter pelagic sharks. Come face to face with these incredible ocean predators in a life-changing experience. Although sharks typically have an unfortunate reputation, in reality, they are shy and sensitive creatures.

The Mobula Munkiana, also known as Munk's Devil Ray, or Manta Cubana have a bi-annual migration in and out of the Sea of Cortez, passing through Cabo San Lucas. These huge schools of Mobula often reach up to the thousands.The Mobulas move gracefully through the water, often leaping into the air and landing with a slap on the surface of the water. They swim close to the water's surface, making it easy for people to swim, snorkel, and free dive easily among them.
