Humpback Whale Watching In Los Cabos

It’s estimated that hundreds of gray and humpback whales, winter after winter, travel about 5,400 nautical miles from the cold waters of Alaska, to any of the three whale sanctuaries along the coast of Baja California Sur, to mate or to give birth to their calves.

Tourism service providers throughout the state, offer a variety of tours for both residents and visitors who wish to closely live this unique experience.

First to arrive are the humpback whales that can be seen from various tour boats or from land very close to the shoreline of Los Cabos.

Carol Pennal, from Indiana: “This is our 7th time whales watching. We definitely saw more breeching today than we have ever seen, so it’s been a very good trip ...”

 

The humpback whale is one of the most popular cetaceans, since its migratory routes are very close to the coast which allows thousands of people to observe them year after year.

Beatriz González, from State of Mexico: "Beautiful, it’s a beautiful and wonderful experience, it’s like nothing else and it’s just beautiful ..." 

 

Alejandro Robles, State of Mexico: "Yes this is also my first time ... Fabulous, fabulous atmosphere and the activities, very good..."

This, which is the most impressive animal migration on the planet. It usually begins in the second part of December, ending in mid-march, offering a magnificent option to enjoy both this natural spectacle and other beautiful sights of Los Cabos.
