Overview

Live the experience of witnessing the migration phenomenon of the most majestic being on the Planet: The Whale.

Enjoy the journey with all the comfort and personalized attention for groups of no more than 12 people. We have sports boats with cushioned seats and shade, with which it is possible to travel a greater distance.

We will have the opportunity to see the mating phenomena, where it is possible to witness 7-8 males seeking to show their physical superiority to be the one chosen by the female,

It is also common to observe the mother with her calf, where the females prepare them for the long and difficult migration journey of 3,000 km that they will make in the month of April or May.

The whale calves spend a lot of time on the surface, since they are still learning to hold their breath, which allows us to carry out sightings with their mothers.

It is common to be able to hear their song, which can travel up to 3 thousand km through the water.

    What To Expect

    Whale watching can occur throughout the Bay, depending on the port from which we leave, however, it is even more common to find them in the North of the Bay, since the entry point of their migration from Alaska is precisely the channel that exists. in the Marietas Islands area.

    We will sail towards the area of Nuevo Vallarta and Cruz de Huanacaxtle, where the seabed is shallow. The whales usually travel through this area with their calves since the waters are calm and the visibility is adequate to prepare their calves for their long journey back to Alaska.

    Likewise, this area is the common habitat of groups of resident dolphins, which look for food in the mouths of the rivers in the area, so it is common to have encounters with them.

    When clients choose to travel by speedboat, instead of the Sailboat, it is possible to travel a greater distance and even have time to snorkel if all members of the group wish.
