Welcome to the best whale watching!!, we will leave the city of La Paz to go to one of the most important shelter sites for the gray whale, where in addition to meeting one of the giants of the sea we will also have the opportunity to observe birds and dolphins.

Once we arrive at the port, we will board a boat that will take us through the mangroves until we reach the viewing area where we will spend two hours watching the gray whale.

It is important to remember that we do NOT harass the whales, our work to protect the species has characterized us for years, this makes the trip unique and special!

Upon returning to the port we will offer you food in one of the local restaurants, we will stay there for approximately 1 hour and a half.

Once you have finished your meals, we will board the transport to return to the City of Peace where we will leave you at the point where we picked you up.

Whales up close - Great tour, great time. We saw lots of whales and were close to a few of them. Pamela was a great guide, was helpful when my wife became sick and we had to cancel, rescheduling us on a new discounted tour. We would have hated to miss this experience. We had a nice lunch as well. Many thanks.

Just magical - A really enjoyable experience. The tour operator moved up the pick up time in response to weather conditions and the communication was very good. On arrival at Puerto Chale we transferred to the boat and were soon heading off towards Santa Margarita Island. We then had a magical two and a half hours watching the whales, must have seen around 30, singly and in pods. The captain was respectful of the whales and kept his distance, allowing them to come closer rather than chasing them. It all felt very peaceful and we had so many sightings. At one time we had a whale under the boat! Maria was a very good and knowlegeable guide who was very good at spotting whales about to breach. All in all a very enjoyable day

Recommended whale watching - Very well organized. The guide was a biologist and was able to share a lot of interesting information. There was no whale hunting, just a peaceful observation. Highly recommended.

We had an experience like no other - After a ride from La Paz Mexico in a comfortable VAN that allowed us to enjoy views of the desert, we arrived to Puerto Chale. We took a boat with two more families. Our guide, Pamela, was a knowledgeable and highly entertaining Marine Biologist. Our expectations were low about watching those amazing and colosal beings. The fact is that, after a few minutes navigating, we were sorrounded by lots of gray whales including some of them with their babies. They are playful an curios of those beings outside the water. And we learned that the encounter has to be respectful. If they feel like it, they will approach the boat. Do not insist to touch them or chase them. If you are patient they will get closer and you will have one of the most amazing experiences in your life.
