Overview

Cabo's first Marine Biologist led Whale Watching Tours, incl FREE tour photos. Often imitated, never duplicated. We offer 2.5 hour zodiac whale watching and marine wildlife tours and focus on small groups (max 10 guests), educational and non-invasive tours All tour photos are included FREE of charge.

On our way out of the bay you will pass Pelican Rock, Lovers Beach and the famous Arch. After that your guide and captain will search for the whales. The most common species we see on our tours are Humpback Whales, Common Dolphins, Bottlenose Dolphins, Olive Ridley Sea Turtles and Mobula Rays. At times we also might see other species of wildlife such as Gray Whales, Sperm Whales, Blue Whales and Killer Whales. When conditions permit your guide will use a hydrophone to hear the humpback whales sing.

From December 15th until April, if you don't see any whales you get to come out again for free (space permitting).
