Ocean Safari: Sea Lions, Mobula Rays, Dolphins, Orcas & Whales

The Baja California Sur peninsula, located in the heart of the Sea of Cortez, is considered one of the best places in the world for ocean safaris and observing marine wildlife in the wild. In recent years, this destination has become popular due to the biodiversity found around Espíritu Santo Island and Cerralvo Island (also known as Jacques Cousteau Island). Between March and June, vast aggregations of Mobula rays gather in these waters, while whales and dolphins are frequently encountered. These conditions have led to orca sightings, as they are attracted to the area to feed on Mobulas. From July to December, warm water temperatures and good visibility provide excellent conditions for exploring the marine environment. During winter, migrating whales travel between the coastline and the islands, creating further opportunities for wildlife encounters. La Paz, Espíritu Santo Island, La Ventana, and Cerralvo Island form one of the best corners of the Sea of Cortez.

Experience the whale season in Cabo San Lucas with an experience that combines the most emblematic places of Los Cabos with the search for humpback whales in their natural habitat. We will start by navigating the Bay of Cabo San Lucas, touring attractions such as Balconcito Beach, the tropical fish reef, Pelican Rock, Love Beach, Neptune's Finger, the sea lion colony, and the Arch, where we will have the opportunity to take photographs.

Our captain and team will be attentive to the whale activity and will do everything possible to find the best viewing opportunities during the tour.

Live the experience of witnessing the migration phenomenon of the most majestic being on the Planet: The Whale.

The whale calves spend a lot of time on the surface, since they are still learning to hold their breath, which allows us to carry out sightings with their mothers. It is common to be able to hear their song, which can travel up to 3 thousand km through the water.
