Table of Contents

The boats used as Water Taxis in Cabo San Lucas, settling people to and from Lover Beach Play del Amor, are called Panga boats.

These small, open, outboard-powered boats are renowned for their durability and versatility.

Typically ranging from 18 to 28 feet (6-10 meters) in length, pangas are especially favored for their shallow draft, allowing them to navigate closer to shore and through varied water conditions easily. This makes them ideal for accessing remote beaches and shallow waters around Cabo, including the popular Lovers Beach.

Pangas’ simple, robust design stands as a testament to reliability. They provide a secure and efficient means of water transportation for locals and tourists, ensuring a confident journey along the scenic coastline and getting to Lover Beach quickly and easily.

Get Off and On the Water Taxi At Lovers Beach

Water Taxi to Lover Beach
Note the ladder to climb on and off – Water Taxi to Lover Beach.

Getting off at Lovers Beach

The water taxis have a convenient ladder close to the bow in front of the boat.

Because Lovers Beach is a calm beach, the movements are not extreme, making getting off using the ladder simple. Those who can jump off the boat are welcome to do so. The water is shallow enough to stand in them.

The water taxi Panga will bring you very close to the beach. You still will have to walk in the water a little because the boat’s outboard engine at the back will still need sufficient yet not much depth to operate.

The video showcases the getting on and off the Water Taxi. Note the conveniently installed ladder at the bow (front of the boat).

Times of interest (ladder showcasing):

  • Minutes 00:00 to 00:05 showcasing the robust ladder that allows one to get off the boat safely and easily.
  • Minutes 04:00 to 04:15 showcasing climbing up to the water taxi from the beach.

At Los Cabos

I used to live in Los Cabos for some time and worked here as a boat captain in one of Cabo San Lucas' leading tour companies. Back then, I came for 6 months but stayed for 18. I've done a bunch of things, and visited multiple hemispheres. I traveled and lived in other countries. And now I'm back here, At Los Cabos.
