Overview

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.

Afterward, we will continue towards the waters of the Pacific Ocean and areas near Punta Ballenas to begin the search. 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.

Each output is different: you can observe breaths, tails, flukes, jumps, or even mothers with their young. Since it is wild fauna, specific sightings and behaviors cannot be guaranteed.
