0 / 3Cabo San Lucas sits at the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula, where the Sea of Cortez meets the Pacific Ocean. The marina is home to one of Mexico's most active yacht charter fleets, and YACHTSMX® has operated here for over 8 years.
Cabo's protected bay and consistent year-round weather make it one of the best yacht charter destinations in North America — sea conditions are calmest from October through June, with whale season from January to March bringing humpbacks and gray whales just offshore.
From La Paz, charters reach Balandra Bay, the UNESCO islands of Espíritu Santo and Isla Partida, and the remote northern islands Jacques Cousteau called “the world's aquarium.” It's the base for multi-night escapes — eco-luxury, nature-focused and quieter than Cabo.
Snorkel with sea lions at Los Islotes, swim with whale sharks from October to April, and anchor in turquoise coves few travelers ever reach. Day trips run 8 hours; overnight expeditions run from 1 to 7+ nights.
Cabo yacht charters range from approximately $44,100 MXN$2,450 USD for an entry-level 4-hour charter on a 50' motor yacht, up to $540,000 MXN$30,000 USD for an 8-hour charter on our 130' flagship superyacht.
Every quote includes captain & crew, fuel, custom menu, and standard water toys. No hidden fees.
Cabo is the day-charter capital — celebrations, El Arco sunsets, Santa María Bay snorkeling, and short Pacific-side cruises. Most charters are 4 to 8 hours.
La Paz is the expedition base — multi-night Sea of Cortez escapes through Espíritu Santo, Isla Partida and the remote northern islands. Eco-luxury, nature-focused, and quieter.
All YACHTSMX® charters include: licensed captain and crew, fuel, custom menu, bottled water and soft drinks, snorkeling gear, paddleboards or kayaks (where applicable), and check-in assistance. Tips (10–15%) and 16% sales tax are additional. Tax is waived for cash payments.
A typical 6-hour Cabo charter departs around 10am from Marina Cabo San Lucas: cruise past El Arco for photos, anchor at Santa María Bay or Chileno Bay for snorkeling and swimming, lunch onboard with your custom menu, then cruise the Cabo corridor back toward the marina. Sunset charters depart around 4pm and return at golden hour past the Arch.
October through June is the prime season — calm seas, warm water, and minimal hurricane risk. January to March is whale season, with humpbacks and gray whales just offshore. July through September is hurricane season; charters still run but require flexibility on dates.
Yes. Cabo: humpback whales from December to April, with peak activity in January–March. La Paz: dedicated gray whale flights to Magdalena Bay from January to March, plus year-round dolphin pods and sea lion colonies at Los Islotes. Whale shark season runs October through April in the bay just outside La Paz.
Day charters: 2–4 weeks in advance is comfortable. Peak season (Christmas, New Year, Spring Break, July 4th) needs 2–3 months. Multi-night Sea of Cortez packages: 1–3 months in advance for our most-booked yachts. The 10-night Grand Voyage requires advance booking only — typically 4+ months out.
