If you’re headed to Los Cabos, you’re probably thinking about the best ways to see the iconic whales that migrate to the area for warmer waters.
The Baja Peninsula is home to so many of these magnificent creatures during winter, and if you plan your trip right, you could get a front-row seat to one of the most extraordinary whale-watching events in the world.
When to Go Whale Watching
The best time for whale watching is during the winter months, between November and April.
For the most optimal time to catch a glimpse of the gentle giants, plan on visiting from January to March, when activity is the greatest.
Benefits of a Whale Watching Tour
To see the whales, you’ll need to book a whale watching tour.
On the excursion, expert guides will take you directly to secret spots where you have a greater likelihood of seeing the whales in action.
These experienced professionals can also answer any questions you might have about marine life or migration activity.
Finding the Right Tour For You
Whale watching tours come in all shapes and sizes: small groups, private tours, adventurous excursions, and more.
Before you book your tour, it’s a good idea to consider which type is best for you and your party.
For those who tend to get seasick easily, an early morning outing may be a better fit as the waters tend to be calmer, and the reduced waves make it easier to spot whales.
On the other hand, the whales are more likely to breach the ocean’s surface in the afternoon during high tide and with stronger winds.
If you don’t mind choppier waves, getting to see whales jumping out of the water is a sight you’ll never forget!
Another factor to think about is what type of boat you want to take.
A zodiac is a fast raft style boat that tends to be smaller in length and holds fewer guests.
These are great for those who love speed and adventure.
On a regular sailing tour, you’ll go out on a covered boat that is a bit bigger than a zodiac, which can be more comfortable for some individuals.
