Buccaneer Queen Treasure Snorkel Overview

Depart from the marina at Cabo San Lucas for an adventure aboard a realistic pirate ship for a thrilling snorkeling expedition at Chileno Bay. The Buccaneer Queen, a ninety-foot-long schooner, will carry you and your family over the sparkling waters of the Sea of Cortez for a swashbuckling voyage. Your children will imagine that they are roaming the decks of a pirate ship just as they have seen in big budget motion pictures like Pirates of the Caribbean. While the children enjoy playing buccaneer, the parents can witness the panoramic coastal backdrop. Even grown-ups will imagine themselves in the bygone days of pirates. Passengers will feel as though they are in a blockbuster film. The Buccaneer Queen was actually used as the set for a Hollywood production, the 1995 picture, Cutthroat Island which starred Geena Davis.

But this maritime tour isn’t exclusively about pretending to be a pirate – after cruising over the splendid Sea of Cortez waters, clients will have the chance to snorkel off the pristine sands of Lover’s Beach.  This gorgeous beach on the Pacific Ocean attracts sunbathers and snorkelers because of the amazing beach and abundance of underwater life.

You’ll also have the chance to seek sunken treasure off Lover’s Beach as well as at the Marine reserve in Chileno Bay, but you won’t find conquistador’s gold in the transparent waters of the region. Instead, you will discover a wealth of multi-colored corals and exotic fish species. Your whole family will “treasure” the memory of witnessing the unmatched beauty of these coral gardens.
