Sunset Cruise in San José del Cabo
The Sea of Cortez at golden hour is one of the most beautiful skies in Mexico. Our private sunset cruise in San José del Cabo aboard the Riviera 43ft (or upgrade to the Cabo 48ft or Luxury 50ft) is timed to put your group on deck exactly when the light is best. Champagne, your playlist, A/C cabin when needed, and a crew that knows the routes that frame the Sierra de la Laguna in the perfect orange.
Quick answer: A private sunset cruise in San José del Cabo with Daliken usually lasts 3 to 4 hours, cast off ~2 hours before sunset, includes captain and bilingual crew, ice and water, A/C cabin, onboard bathroom, and Bluetooth sound. Most couples and small groups choose the Riviera 43ft from $1,700 USD. Champagne, open bar, chef and photographer available as add-ons. Full pricing on our boat rental fleet page.
Your Own Yacht. Your Own Sunset.
Public sunset cruises in Cabo San Lucas mean 40 strangers on a catamaran, fixed music, fixed bar. Our private sunset cruise from Puerto Los Cabos is the opposite of that — your group only, your timing, your vibe.
Perfect Golden Hour
We time the cast-off so you are on the open water when the light turns. The Sierra de la Laguna behind you, the open sea ahead, the sky doing its thing.
Champagne & Comfort
Champagne welcome included. Upgrade to full open bar, private chef, or a curated catering platter to make the sunset feel like a celebration.
Your Playlist Wins
Bluetooth sound, your Spotify, your volume. Match the music to the mood — chill, romantic, celebratory. The boat is yours.
Photo-Ready Setting
The yacht backdrop, the sky, the sea, your people. We can also send a professional photographer on board to capture the day cinematically.
Departing Puerto Los Cabos
Quieter marina, less tourist traffic, easier boarding. The route along the Sea of Cortez side gives you the calm waters and the best light.
A/C Cabin When You Want It
If the breeze picks up after sunset, the A/C cabin keeps your group comfortable while the captain heads back to dock.

Common Questions Before You Book
What time does the sunset cruise start?
We cast off approximately 2 hours before sunset, which puts you on the open water exactly when the light turns. Specific time changes month to month — when you book, we send the exact boarding time for your date.
How long is the cruise?
Most sunset cruises run 3 to 4 hours. The Riviera 43ft has a 4-hour package at $1,700 USD. Longer 6-hour formats are also available if you want time before the sunset for swimming or snorkeling.
Is champagne or alcohol included?
A welcome bottle of champagne can be added. For more, choose an Open Bar Package (beer, wine, cocktails, premium spirits) or bring your own. Ice and water are always included.
How many people can come on the sunset cruise?
Up to 12 on the Riviera 43ft, 16 on the Cabo 48ft, and a similar capacity on the Luxury 50ft. Tell us the group size and we recommend the right yacht.
Can we propose during the sunset?
Yes — and we are very good at it. See our wedding proposal yacht page for the full proposal package with photographer, music timing, flowers and discreet crew.
What if the weather is bad on our date?
Port closures are always refunded or rescheduled at no cost. For other weather, we contact you the morning of the charter to align.
