About
Buccaneer Queen, a boat, a legend, is a pirate ship built in 1968, is the one and only theme boat sailing around the Los Cabos Bay Area. Go pass the famous Cabo San Lucas Arch, Lovers Beach, visit Chileno Bay and the coral reefs, fall in love with the marvelous sunset at the Pacific Ocean. With 4 different daily tours, we provide a real pirate experience in every inch of this spectacular 96 foot long wooden ship. Shortly before leaving the dock your crew will give a short presentation to familiarize you with the area that we will be traveling to and the whale species we are likely to encounter. Then it's time to cast off the morning lines and get underway. As we make our way through the harbor your naturalist will point out the historic buildings and landmarks of Cabo and tell some of talk of some of the maritime lore surrounding this world famous seaport.

The overall experience was great - its a little unorthodox but once in the spirit and mood of the event everything kind of works - the dinner was good, show tremendously entertaining - there were 10 of us of which 3 were children and it worked for everyone

Had a great time on ship and saw whales so that was amazing. But food was okay and the ship wasn’t the best set up to eat especially with little kids. You slide on half the ship where you sit add no were to put plates down like a table so eating in the laps for how much the ship charges wasn’t great. Drinks were okay and show was kind of short and pushed a long fast I feel. Maybe not offer food on this ship and just do a show and drinks. Felt very rushed to eat and bbq items not the best choice with little kids. It was so messy and not everyone likes the taste of BBQ. My kids didn’t like it so sadly wasted the food. If you do food something not as messy and kids will like if it’s supposed to be a family type of entertainment.

We went with a 6-month-old and 2.5-year-old and had a great time. Breakfast was plentiful and tasty and we saw tons of whales! Great way to spend a morning in Cabo

The Pirate Show featured professionals in acrobatics and they were fantastic! The barbecued ribs and chicken dinner was delicious. The Buccaneer-Queen was an awesome ship and had a very comfortable ride. I would highly recommend this tour.

Amazing!!!! So much fun. The staff aka pirates are amazing. Full of fun, friendly, put on a good show. They interact with children and adults. Open bar is awesome and attentive, food is good and snorkeling is fun. They do a little find the key to the treasure thing thats fun. Didn’t see a ton of fish snorkeling but it was still enjoyable. On the way back they do a fun show, interact with the guests more (kids and adults) and we also had a lot of whale sightings (2/29/24). For the cost it’s definitely worth it!! Super fun!

The lunch cruise was so much fun! We got to stop by the Arch and take pictures on our way out to the bay. Once we got to the bay to snorkel, the crew was extremely friendly and prepared for the really strong currents we had. We saw so many fish and the bay was gorgeous! On our way back, we were served a delicious lunch and the crew had a movie trivia game prepared. The highlight of the day was seeing a mama and a baby whale. Overall, the tour/experience was a 10/10. Only suggestion is to bring your own towel because there aren’t any on board!

Can't review them when they cancelled with me via text day prior while I was on cruise ship. Was supposed to be 2/20/24 for Pirate boat. They wanted to either reschedule for Catamarans Cabo Escape or do the Pirate boat on 2/21. Granted we had 2 days in Cabo but already had plans. I asked if the Catamaran was kid friendly since we had 3 kids 7-12. The response I got was, All our tours are family environment, but the best choice for families is The Pirate Boat... I responded I needed to check if I could move my excursion for Wednesday and asked if I was unable to do so if they would be refunding me. They responded that "from our end we are able to reschedule, if you wish to cancel you would have to contact Trip Advisor since I made through them" Long story short I was not able to swap and contacted Trip Advisor and they were great and had to send email to confirm and issued my refund which took about a week. Disappointed they cancelled and even more so that I saw several "Pirate boats" including what I thought was the Buccaneer Queen so no clue what happened.

We had a great time sailing with this crew! They were very efficient in serving breakfast and drinks. Antonio was very knowledgeable and informative and the entire crew made sure everyone was having fun! We saw quite a few whales close up!
If you are going to go whale watching, you won’t be disappointed if you choose the Buccaneer Queen!
