There are several tours that will take you to Chileno Beach for snorkelling. You can get there on your own if you have a car and your own snorkelling gear. Lots of fish. The sea was a bit rough and I took first time 6 and 8 year old snorkellers and they did good. We all just drank our good... More

This beach is well maintained and beautiful. The facilities are clean. The snorkeling is fun for all. There is plenty of shade under the grass huts. There are several security guards monitoring the parking area and the beach for safety.

There were a lot of locals. For my boyfriend and I it was important that we got to truly experience culture. This was a great beach to visit. Great to see all the families enjoying themselves

We traveled here by boat and snorkeled in the yellow floats just off shore. A wet suit would help as it is cold, but the fish are awesome and plenty. Be careful not too get to close to the rocks.

This is the first beach we go to when we come to Cabo. There are more shade palapas then ever before and it does have bathrooms near by. This is an short 14 mile drive out of CSL, easy to find, safe to park (we've never had anything stolen), and CLEAN! Plenty of trash receptacles and people use them here.... More

Head to Medano Beach, Chileno is where the boats take the snorklers so it's always filled with boat oil and the water is cloudy and choppy...no bueno amigo.

I think this beach has the most variety of fish and usually lots of them. Try to get there by 9:00am before the tour boats (as many as five) arrive. By getting there early you can likely score on the palapas on the beach (thanks to the government for putting them there). The beach also has restrooms. Snorkel early, sun... More
