The best feature here is control. On this private 75-foot yacht, you choose how to spend the trip instead of following a fixed schedule. Stop at El Arco, swim near Chileno Beach, cruise by Medano Beach, fish from the boat, or mix several activities into one easygoing outing.

I like the four to five crew members, including a chef and mixologist, and I like the way the boat works for very different groups. A family can combine swimming, paddle boarding, and fishing, while a couple can turn the same yacht into a sunset outing. The main consideration is price: $2,129 covers up to 10 people, so it makes the most sense when your group is large enough to share the cost.

Key points to know

  • A private yacht for up to 50 people: The advertised price covers up to 10 people, while larger groups can contact the operator for a quote.
  • You set the pace: Snorkel, swim, fish, paddle board, watch whales, sightsee, or simply cruise.
  • Food and drinks are included: Expect appetizers such as fresh ceviche, guacamole, dips, and salsas, followed by a full meal prepared onboard.
  • Three hours is the minimum: The early bird promotional price applies to trips returning at 3 PM.
  • Three useful Cabo stops: El Arco, Playa el Chileno, and Medano Beach each offer a different reason to leave the marina.
  • Best for groups sharing the cost: The experience earns its keep when you value privacy, flexible timing, and onboard service.

A 75-foot yacht with room to make your own plan

All Inclusive HUGE 75ft Yacht Up to 50 Guests Early Bird Promo - A 75-foot yacht with room to make your own plan

This Blue Moon Yacht outing begins at IGY Marina StoreCentro in Cabo San Lucas. From there, your group boards a two-bedroom, 75-foot yacht with room for up to 50 people. The price is listed at $2,129 per group of up to 10, and the trip requires at least three hours.

That group pricing changes the way you should judge the experience. For two people, it is a costly boat trip. For 10 people, the listed rate works out to about $213 per person before any extra group quote, which is more reasonable for a private boat with a chef, mixologist, and several crew members. A group of families or friends can use the space without sharing the boat with strangers.

The yacht is designed for choice rather than a strict ride from one stop to the next. You can spend more time swimming, ask the crew to help with fishing, or keep moving along the Cabo coast. The supplied equipment includes snorkeling gear, paddle boards, and fishing gear. The boat is also licensed for whale watching.

Keep the timing in mind. The promotional rate is specifically valid for trips returning at 3 PM, and three hours is the minimum booking. The advertised tour length is approximately three hours, while one family outing lasted four hours. Ask about the exact return time and any extra-hour cost before you finalize your plans.

Leaving the marina for El Arco

El Arco de Cabo San Lucas is the natural centerpiece of the route. This famous rock formation marks the meeting point of the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Cortez, and it gives you the classic Cabo view from the water.

The yacht lets you see the arch without treating it as a rushed photo stop. You can take in the rock formations, photograph the boat against Cabo’s coast, and ask the crew how much time the group has available for sightseeing. The exact time at each stop depends on what you choose to do, so your plan matters.

El Arco is primarily a scenic stop, not a place where you should expect a long beach visit. If your group wants swimming or paddle boarding, save enough of the three-hour window for Playa el Chileno or another suitable section of the route. A common mistake on a short private cruise is trying to fit every activity into the schedule. You will have a better day if you choose two or three priorities.

For a group with mixed interests, El Arco works well because everyone can enjoy the scenery at once. Someone who does not want to snorkel or fish can still have a worthwhile part of the trip here.

Swimming and water time at Playa el Chileno

All Inclusive HUGE 75ft Yacht Up to 50 Guests Early Bird Promo - Swimming and water time at Playa el Chileno

Playa el Chileno is the most natural place in this itinerary to focus on swimming, snorkeling, and paddle boarding. The yacht carries the equipment needed for those activities, so you do not need to arrange separate rentals for the boat outing.

The practical advantage is flexibility. A strong swimmer can spend more time in the water, while someone who prefers to stay aboard can watch the action and enjoy the food and drinks. The crew can help organize the equipment and keep the day moving, although the amount of time available depends on your overall plan.

Snorkeling is included as an option, not a guarantee of perfect conditions. Water clarity and weather can change, and the trip requires good weather. If poor conditions force a cancellation, you can choose another date or receive a full refund. It is sensible to keep your schedule flexible rather than placing this boat trip on the final hours of your Cabo visit.

Paddle boarding adds another choice for a group that does not want to spend the entire stop in the water. You might rotate activities, with part of the group snorkeling while others paddle or remain on the yacht. That freedom is one of the strongest reasons to book a private boat instead of a fixed group excursion.

Medano Beach and the return cruise

All Inclusive HUGE 75ft Yacht Up to 50 Guests Early Bird Promo - Medano Beach and the return cruise

Medano Beach is another planned stop and gives you a different view of Cabo’s famous waterfront. The beach is closely tied to the resort side of Cabo San Lucas, so the stop can help you see the town from the water rather than from the marina or hotel zone.

Do not expect every stop to receive equal time during a three-hour trip. El Arco, Chileno, and Medano Beach are listed as the route, but the captain and crew need to balance cruising, swimming, fishing, food service, and your return time. Tell the crew early which stop matters most to your group.

The return cruise is also part of the experience, not just transportation back to the marina. This is when you can settle in for the meal, finish a drink, and enjoy the coast without rushing to the next activity. If your group has infants, toddlers, or older family members, that quieter time can be especially useful.

The boat returns to the same meeting point at IGY Marina StoreCentro. You will need to arrange your own way to the marina, since no hotel transfer is listed.

A chef, a mixologist, and a generous food plan

All Inclusive HUGE 75ft Yacht Up to 50 Guests Early Bird Promo - A chef, a mixologist, and a generous food plan

The onboard food service is more substantial than a simple snack tray. The chef prepares a full meal, while appetizers are served beforehand. The listed examples include fresh-made ceviche, guacamole, handmade dips, and salsas.

That matters because a three-hour boat trip can feel short if everyone is waiting for lunch. Here, you can eat while cruising or between activities, rather than leaving the boat to find a restaurant. It also makes the trip easier for a group with different appetites and activity levels.

The mixologist can prepare drinks based on what you want, and a cocktail menu is available for anyone who prefers to choose from set options. Alcoholic beverages are limited to people age 18 and older. The supplied information does not specify the exact meal, drink list, or options for dietary restrictions, so ask about those points before booking if they matter to your group.

I would also confirm how the meal fits your timing. If you want maximum time in the water, tell the crew early. If food is a major part of the outing, build in time to enjoy it rather than treating lunch as something to squeeze between stops.

Fishing turns the cruise into a group activity

All Inclusive HUGE 75ft Yacht Up to 50 Guests Early Bird Promo - Fishing turns the cruise into a group activity

Fishing is included among the available activities, and it can work well for groups with mixed interests. One family outing included two infants, three toddlers, and 10 adults. During four hours, the group paddle boarded, snorkeled, saw the sights, and fished.

The useful detail is that only a few people initially wanted to fish, but it became the group favorite. Four fish were caught and reeled in, with everyone able to take part. The crew handled the work while the boat continued cruising, so fishing did not require the whole group to sit still and wait.

That setup makes fishing less intimidating for beginners. You do not need to be an experienced angler to try it, and children can participate when the crew helps manage the equipment. The information does not promise a catch, so treat fishing as an optional activity rather than a guaranteed result.

For families, this may be the most social choice on the boat. Snorkeling separates people into the water and onboard groups, but a fish on the line gives everyone something to watch and share.

Whale watching and seasonal flexibility

All Inclusive HUGE 75ft Yacht Up to 50 Guests Early Bird Promo - Whale watching and seasonal flexibility

The yacht is fully licensed for whale watching. That is an important feature if you are visiting during a period when whales are present and want to include wildlife viewing in your day.

The trip description does not promise whale sightings or provide a season, so you should not book it solely for that purpose. Think of whale watching as one possible focus alongside the arch, swimming, fishing, and food. Ask the operator about current conditions and the best departure time if whales are your main reason for going.

The flexible format helps here. An early whale-watching trip can be arranged, while another group might prefer snorkeling and swimming or a romantic sunset ride. The boat is not tied to one single theme.

Who gets the best value from this yacht

All Inclusive HUGE 75ft Yacht Up to 50 Guests Early Bird Promo - Who gets the best value from this yacht

This experience fits you best if you are traveling with family or friends and want the boat to belong only to your group. A private setting also helps when your party includes small children, people who do not want to swim, or several different ideas about how to spend the day.

It is especially useful for:

  • Families who want short activity sessions and plenty of room to rest
  • Groups that want fishing, snorkeling, paddle boarding, and sightseeing in one outing
  • Couples or small groups who prefer a sunset cruise with food and drinks
  • Larger celebrations that need a yacht with capacity for up to 50 people
  • Visitors who value a chef and bartender more than the lowest possible boat fare

It is less attractive if you are traveling alone or as a pair and mainly want a basic ride to El Arco. In that case, a shared excursion may cost less. This booking earns its price through privacy, service, food, and control over the schedule.

The listing has a 4.9 rating from 25 reviews, with 96 percent of customers recommending it. Those numbers suggest a strong record, but they do not remove the need to match the trip to your group. A private yacht is only good value if you will use the space and the choices it provides.

Practical details before you reserve

All Inclusive HUGE 75ft Yacht Up to 50 Guests Early Bird Promo - Practical details before you reserve

The experience is offered in English and uses a mobile ticket. Confirmation arrives within 48 hours of booking, subject to availability. Since the trip is popular and averages 110 days of advance booking, reserve early if your Cabo dates are fixed.

The meeting point is IGY Marina StoreCentro, Marina, 23450 Cabo San Lucas, B.C.S., Mexico. The activity ends back there. The listed operating hours are Monday through Sunday, 6 AM to 9 PM, for the dates shown from January 31, 2023 through December 8, 2026.

Service animals are allowed, public transportation is nearby, and most people can participate. Alcohol is only for people 18 and older. Groups larger than 15 should contact customer service for an updated quote, even though the yacht can hold up to 50 people comfortably.

You can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before the start time. Cancellations or changes made within 24 hours are not refunded or accepted. Since good weather is required, a weather cancellation brings the choice of another date or a full refund.

Should you book the Blue Moon Yacht?

Book it if you have a group large enough to share the $2,129 price and want more than a short sightseeing ride. The strongest reasons are the private setting, four to five crew members, onboard chef and mixologist, and the ability to combine fishing, snorkeling, paddle boarding, swimming, and sightseeing.

For a family, the flexible schedule is the key advantage. The crew can keep activities moving while younger children or non-swimmers take breaks. For friends, the food and drinks make the yacht feel like the day’s main event, not just a transfer between beaches.

Before paying, confirm the exact return time, especially if you want the early bird rate, and ask how your preferred activities will fit into the three-hour minimum. If your group has 10 people or more and values comfort and privacy, this is a strong Cabo splurge. If you only want a quick look at El Arco, choose a simpler and less expensive boat outing.
