Pelican Rock
★★★★☆
(1,151)
Pelican Rock is one of the most popular sites to dive and snorkel in the Cabo San Lucas area. Located just offshore from Playa del Amor it’s easily accessible right from the harbor making charter boats easy to find and not too expensive.
Due to Cabo’s location and mix of temperate and sub-tropical waters, wildlife encounters include hammerhead sharks, giant mantas, amberjacks and other tropical species.
