IMPORTANT TRIP INFORMATION
You MUST arrive in Cabo San Lucas / San Jose del Cabo (airport code = San Jose Cabo, Mexico (SJD) on or before 3pm on Sunday, September 21st.

Meet Alan and the charter bus at the cabo airport on Sept. 21st at 4pm

The boat departs early in the morning between 7 - 8am on September 22nd.

The boat returns to dock around noon on Saturday September 27th. A hotel room IS provided in La Paz with the price of the trip on Saturday night.

Schedule your flight out on Sunday, September 28th after 14:30 hours (2:30pm) or stay longer on your own time and dollar.
IF YOU ARE FLYING IN A COUPLE DAYS IN ADVANCE
For those of us that are flying in a couple days early to cabo, we will need to meet Alan and the charter bus at the cabo airport on Sept. 21st at 4pm. A cab will cost about $35, and should accommodate 2 people with luggage.
The bus drive from cabo airport to la paz is about 2 to 3.5 hours, depending on how many times we stop to have a drink, bathrooms, photos, etc. The trip has some excellent view points and worth the time for photos.
On sept 28th, at 9am, the bus will depart from our hotel in la paz, for cabo airport. As this is about a 2 to 3.5 hour drive, we anticipate that arrival time at airport will be around 12:30pm. This means that the earliest that flights are booked should be 2:30pm...but to be safe, it would be better to book later.
FLIGHT OPTION 2
If you have the extra money, you can fly straight into La Paz, Mexico (LAP). Its only 15 minute taxi ride to the boat. But it will cost about $400+ more dollars to book this.
