The Details

There is just no time to get bored on our Classic Baja California Whale Watching Adventure.

How could you say no to one of the world’s most incredible whale watching holidays? Jacques Cousteau called the Sea of Cortez a living aquarium, John Steinbeck  wrote two books about Baja California and Sir David Attenborough has raved about this isolated peninsula that extends 780 miles from the US border… Now that is validation!

Baja is not the lawless place that some might imagine. From the moment you step off the plane there is the sense you’ve arrived somewhere very different. This trip is full of amazing experiences and we cover some of the best things you can do in this remote part of Mexico.

Over the next two weeks you’ll swim with Whale Sharks, snorkel with sea lions, go in search of Humpback and Blue Whales and spend a few days at San Ignacio Lagoon where the Gray Whales come along side your boat in search of human interaction – truly mind blowing!!

This trip is ideal for both adventurous couples and families alike – anyone with a love of the outdoors and wildlife should seriously think about it!

Suggested Itinerary

Best time to go

The weather is great all year round and it can get particularly hot in the summer months with occasional tropical rains and storms in August and September. Winds are generally stronger and bring cooler air during the winter months – perhaps the best time to visit Baja California. Spring brings warmer temperatures with the least amount of rain. January to March is the best season to see migrating whales give birth in the lagoons.
