Baja Charters - the Best! The boat is beautiful, the staff was amazing! Food was fantastic and our marine biologist was fantastic! We weren’t able to see whale sharks cuz they hadn’t migrated- but we did see sea lions and dolphins! Definitely go on this charter - a bit more money but totally worth it! (Reviewed at: 2023-10-28)
