This past weekend Kelsey and I jetted off to Cabo San Lucas to celebrate the kick off of summer and for surviving our second year in college. It had been some time since our last Cabo visit so we were excited to hit Medano Beach and see all the action we had been missing.
While hanging out at the Mango Deck, Kelsey noticed a boat out in the water with Body Glove logos. Not just any boat but a catamaran, and aboard that boat was our friend Cortez, whom we had not seen in a couple years. Excited to see such a new attraction in the water, Kelsey and I decided we had to check it out.
With just a hop, skip and a water taxi ride later, we were aboard the Body Glove Catamaran with Captain Cortez, First Mate TJ and their trusty water pup, Bailey.
Within minutes we were sailing far from the lively chaos of Medano's sandy beach and out into the beautiful and calm Sea of Cortez. Although Kelsey and I have been to Cabo countless times, seeing the iconic arc from a boat up close and personal was like seeing Cabo for the very first time all over again. Basking in the sunshine we sailed for about an hour out to the Pacific side.
Out at sea, we hopped into the water and floated around on rafts. For a moment there, I laid back and closed my eyes, and thought to myself, I am living the dream. Just us and the ocean, and Bailey of course. Bailey was one fearless water dog. It was as if she had lived on a boat her whole life. The second you tossed a toy off the boat she was right into the water retrieving it.
After some serious relaxation time, we climbed back onto the catamaran and headed for the shore. Little did we know that even though we were on our way back, the adventure was far from over. One of the fishing lines we had in the water was spinning like crazy, we had caught a fish without even trying!
Kelsey got first hand experience in reeling in the fish. After a difficult 10 minute battle, kelsey, with the help of the crew, wrestled a decent sized fish right up onto the boat! For a first timer you could say she was quite the fish reeling champ.
We took pictures and celebrated Kelsey's first catch. It was a great way to end the adventurous day.
If you are planning a trip to Cabo San Lucas, the Body Glove catamaran is the perfect way to experience the Sea of Cortez. I would 100% recommend it to anyone. They offer tours for $20 per person per hour and offer a variety of activities to keep the action and adventure going. From sailing to snorkeling or even just going to catch the sunset from the water, the memories will last a lifetime.
