2 Hour Cabo Sunset Fajita Cruise: An Honest Review

So, you’re looking at grabbing that sunset fajita cruise when you hit Cabo, right? Maybe you saw some snaps on Insta, maybe a pal told you it was a “must-do.” Whatever brought you here, you likely want the lowdown before you drop your pesos. That is why I took the cruise and am sharing all the details. No holding back, here’s what that 2-hour Cabo sunset fajita cruise is *really* like. From the tasty food to views, we’re going over what makes it pretty cool – and what might make you think twice.

Setting Sail: Getting on Board

First off, actually getting on the boat is half the battle, is that right? The meeting spot is often near the main marina area; still, the exact spot can be a bit, maybe a lot, crowded. Just follow the instructions you received when you booked super carefully. A bit of patience really helps, especially if there is more than one boat leaving at the same time. When it is finally time to get going, the crew, generally, are super friendly and greet you with a smile. It’s also useful that they point you toward that open bar right away.

The boats, generally, have seating up on the top and in the lower cabin. If you want to feel all that ocean breeze and soak up that sunshine (or get some top-tier sunset snaps), that upper deck is where it’s happening. I get the feeling though, if you’re wanting a cooler, less breezy setting, especially good to consider for those with kiddos or anyone sensitive to the sun, that lower deck could be a better bet. That is, if you want to have that full experience you dreamed of.

Fajitas at Sea: Food and Drink

Okay, now that is an important thing: what about these fajitas? After all, it’s in the title. Basically, the grub is good, not like, gourmet-restaurant level, very obvious. The main meal is, commonly, a buffet-style setup with the star attraction of sizzling fajitas: beef, chicken, maybe shrimp if the cruise line feels generous. So too, you will find usual buffet fixings—rice, beans, salsas, maybe a simple salad. People expecting that 5-star dining experience, could be, will be let down. It’s tasty, filling, and totally satisfying after a day running around Cabo. We were more or less pleased. It really does add to the total party vibe. No?

Drinks-wise, that open bar tends to flow pretty freely. Mixed drinks, ice-cold beer, sodas, and water will usually do the trick. Tips for the bartenders are appreciated, clearly. Basically, if you are planning to have one heck of a time, make sure to pace yourself! Dehydration is no joke in that hot sun, that too should be obvious!

Sightseeing: Views and Photo Ops

That scenery? Totally stunning. The cruise swings, commonly, past El Arco (that famous rock formation), Lover’s Beach, and all kinds of cool rock formations. Plus, you get that crazy amazing view of the Cabo coastline as the sun starts dipping. Actually, this is the reason people book it in the first place. The crew typically points out spots, as I was saying, and will offer to snap your pics, very friendly people.

And honestly, the sunset itself? Epic. Those colors are really unreal. That golden light hitting the water and rocks… seriously something. I was able to grab tons of memorable photos, I promise. It’s all pretty breathtaking, in a way. Almost too much, and you might be overwhelmed with the awesome nature of the situation. Arguably, that could be a downside?

The Vibe: Entertainment and Atmosphere

The mood really rides, mostly, on the particular cruise you decide to take. A lot of boats play music, sometimes is that DJ playing the latest hits and party classics, sometimes a live band cranking out tunes. People start dancing, chatting each other up, so the atmosphere tends to be super lively. Still, some cruises have more a relaxed vibe, really. It’s useful to check with the tour before you make any bookings, just a friendly recommendation from me.

Now, I need to mention those booze cruises can get a bit crazy, and they definitely tend to do so, as a matter of fact. Very few bad things really, but, that sort of setting not appropriate if you got those kiddos along or looking for a peaceful sail, just, maybe, something to keep in mind. Anyway, there were only a couple of rowdy people on our cruise, so it might be nothing to think about, still, it is almost essential you consider this stuff.

Overall: Is it Worth It?

To be honest? If you’re chasing fantastic scenery, those happy hour drinks, and easy eats out on the ocean, that 2-Hour Cabo Sunset Fajita Cruise hits most the targets. I think so, clearly. I got what I was hoping for. Is that the absolute fanciest food ever? No. Will it possibly be a quiet, secluded romantic outing? Likely not. Still, for what you pay, as a matter of fact, you get a fun time, good energy, and that front-row seat to one wonderful sunset. Is that everything? I did think so.
