Head out to the open water in search of majestic whales that have migrated to Los Cabos all the way from Alaska. Observe these giants of the seas as they approach the surface and lunge into the air for one of nature's most spectacular sights.
Hundreds of whales travel every winter from the ice-cold waters of the Bering Sea to the Pacific Ocean and Gulf of California, making Los Cabos a prime location for whale watching. As you cruise out from San Lucas Bay, keep your camera ready for the encounters with the fascinating species. Listen to your cetacean expert guide as he provides insightful information on these so fascinating species.
Enjoy a tasty brunch buffet with local delicacies as you navigate through the San Lucas Bay and its gateway to the Pacific, and be sure to watch the waters around you. Of the 5 species that have been observed in the area, gray and humpback whales are most common, but you might see sperm whales, orcas, or the giant blue whale, the largest living animal in the world.
The migration season coincides with the whales' mating period, so watch the males perform spectacular breaches, tail slaps, or spy hops as they try to impress the females. Pass by the bay's most notable landmarks, such as the Arch, the sea lion colony, and Lover's Beach before you return to shore.
