Whale sharks are the largest fish in the ocean, reaching lengths of 30 feet or more. Whale sharks, although enormous, are actually good-tempered creatures that feed on plankton exclusively. They pose no threat to humans and are deemed safe to swim with.

Swimming with the playful sea lions is the most entertaining experience you can have in the water, set against the gorgeous backdrop of Isla Espiritu Santo. Snorkeling, bird-watching, and sight-seeing are also popular activities here.
In the sea lion colony, swim, snorkel and interact with these amusing marine mammals in the lovely clear waters of the Sea of Cortes, which, according to Jacques Costeau, is the “aquarium of the world,” with over 500 species of fish and other marine animals

Jet skiing is one of the top water activities in Cabo San Lucas. During this private jet skiing tour, you’ll glide over Pacific waves at a fast pace on the magnificent Baja coastline. Speed past top sights including the renowned Arch of Cabo San Lucas. The 30-minute tours include a pre-departure safety training, as well as life jackets and guidance for first-time riders.
6. Save Baby Sea Turtles
Thousands of sea turtles lay their eggs on the beaches of Cabo San Lucas every summer. Over the next two months, the eggs and hatchlings will encounter numerous risks; it is believed that only one in 1000 to one in 10,000 sea turtles will survive to adulthood.
You may help boost the survival rate of sea turtle hatchlings by leading them safely to the ocean, ensuring that they are not eaten or killed by birds or other predators along the way. Once they’re in the ocean, they’ll face a slew of other dangers, but your assistance in getting them there gives them a fighting chance.
7. Underwater Sand Falls
Sand falls resemble waterfalls, but they are made up of sand that cascades down like water. These underwater sand falls are located in the Sea of Cortez near El Arco. They were discovered by Jacques Cousteau, a famous underwater researcher, who saw sand cascading down a vertical wall beneath the sea. The sand falls and the wall stretch for quite a distance, commencing past and in front of Lover’s Beach and continuing all the way to the marina. To witness the falls, you’ll need to dive at least 30 meters deep and have an open water diver certification.
