Cabo Sail and Snorkel Cruise Overview

Our trim 44-foot Ketch sailboat, the Yael, is the best way to go sightseeing on the stunning waters of the Sea of Cortez. On the journey out to Bahia Santa Maria (Santa Maria Bay), you can relax, sample delicious appetizers, enjoy an ice-cold alcoholic drink and enjoy the spectacular coastal vistas. Bahia Santa Maria (as it is known locally in Spanish) is one f the best dive spots on the Pacific coast of Mexico; the cove is packed with a remarkable spectrum of marine species. Bahia Santa Maria is a federally-protected nature preserve with marvelously clear water.

Once you arrive at Santa Maria, you will truly appreciate its well-earned reputation with diving enthusiasts; the variety of coral, sponges, and astonishing kaleidoscope of tropical fish, including Parrotfish, Puffer-fish, Porcupine Fish, Clowns, Snappers, and Angelfish. You may even see a reef shark, marine turtle, octopus, eel, or ray. During the wintertime, you may even spy a Gray Whale breaching the surface of the n the Sea of Cortez. These monstrous creatures travel from colder climes to breed, spawn, and nurse their newborn calves.

The friendly crew of the Yael will make sure everyone has a safe and fun-filled adventure on board our sailboat. This Staysail Ketch was constructed in the United States in the port of San Francisco. This vessel comes equipped with a galley, head, and roomy cabin. Bring along your personal music device to hook up to our modern sound system so you can jam to your personal music collection. You'll enjoy a complimentary lunch on the deck of the Yael overlooking the pristine Santa Maria Cove.
