About Salty Cabo Excursions
Salty Cabo Excursions operates small-group boat tours from Marina Puerto Los Cabos in San Jose del Cabo, offering an alternative departure point to the busy Cabo San Lucas marina. Holding an official whale watching authorisation from Mexico's environmental authority SEMARNAT, they run seasonal whale encounters alongside year-round snorkelling, sunset cruises, and wildlife safari tours.
Their whale watching season runs December through April with boats guided by marine biologists who provide live narration on humpback and gray whale behaviour. Snorkelling excursions visit Palmilla Bay and other protected coves along the corridor, while their wildlife safari tours seek out dolphins, sea turtles, manta rays, and tropical fish. Private boat charters are available for groups wanting a fully customised itinerary.
Salty Cabo stands out for their San Jose del Cabo base — guests staying along the Tourist Corridor or in San Jose can skip the 30-minute drive to Cabo San Lucas marina entirely. Their smaller boats and strict passenger limits mean less crowding, more personalised attention, and a quieter departure from the working fishing harbour at La Playita.
