What makes this experience unique is that you don't visit the Whale Shark... enter its world. Unlike other water activities, you are not in an aquarium or a show here – you are swimming in the open ocean alongside the largest fish on the planet, in its natural habitat and responsibly. Also, it’s not a massive or hasty activity; you’ll have 2-3 real swimming opportunities, accompanied by certified guides who prioritize your safety and respect for the species. It is an authentic, exciting and difficult experience to compare with any other tour.

Every January through March, gray whales complete the longest migration of any mammal on earth — from the Arctic to the warm Pacific lagoons of Baja California Sur to give birth. Puerto Chale is one of those lagoons, and The Hook takes small private groups directly into it. These are not distant whale sightings from a cliff. Puerto Chale is a shallow enclosed lagoon where gray whale mothers bring their calves. Boats operate at close range under strict permits, and curious whales frequently approach the boats. Planet Earth filmed here. Full-day experience from La Paz with all transport included — no self-driving required. The morning drive passes through massive cardón cactus desert, mangrove-lined bays, and the mountainous coastline of Isla Margarita. Breakfast and lunch are included. What's included: round-trip private transport from La Paz, breakfast, lunch, all gray whale viewing permits, bilingual guide. Season: January through March only. Limited departures
