Climb aboard small panga boats to get up-close-and-personal with the magnificent whales of Baja California’s Magdalena Bay on a thrilling 6-hour whale, dolphin and bird watching tour. An adventure mecca for its rare beauty and pristine areas, Magdalena Bay includes 150 miles of estuaries on the eastern shore of the Pacific Ocean, as well as a seemingly endless system of mangrove that offers sanctu
ary to diverse bird and animal life. But it’s the annual migration of the grey whales that come down to the warmer waters to give birth and raise their young that truly captivates. As you set sail on the Pacific waves, you might also catch the occasional sighting of blue and humpback whales. Imagine the sense of achievement that the Spanish explorer Francisco De Ulloa and his crew must have felt as they saw Isla Magdalena for the first time in 1539. Then experience your own sense of achievement as you immerse yourself in the life of the Sea of Cortez, meeting local fishermen and trying seafood straight from the sea, hiking the sand dunes looking for sea shells, and exploring the bird sanctuary of Isla De Patos.
