Overview

Each winter, whales migrate through the waters surrounding Cabo San Lucas, making the region one of the best places in the world to observe them in the wild. This whale watching tour is designed for travelers who want a safe, respectful, and informative experience.
After departing from the marina, your captain and guide will navigate along the Cabo coastline, keeping watch for whale activity such as breaching, tail slapping, or surface swimming. Sightings vary each day, as whales are wild animals, but encounters are common during the season.
In addition to whale watching, the tour includes time near El Arco (The Arch) and Lover’s Beach, allowing you to enjoy Cabo’s iconic rock formations and coastal views. Throughout the tour, your guide will share insights about whale behavior, migration patterns, and conservation efforts.
