La Ventana is traditionally known as one of the best sites in the world for kite surfing. However, in recent years, this amazing place has become popular along with Cerralvo Island (also known as Jacques Cousteau Island), for its Mobula ray abundance during the months of March-June, and for its whales and dolphins transit. These conditions have resulted…

Great day, great guide - We had an amazing day! Majo was the sweetest, most helpful guide ever. Being very attentive to my mom when she needed an extra hand. Every detail down to the lunch was great. We saw grey whales, humpback whales, mobula rays, sea turtles, marlins, sea lions and a ton of fish! I definitely recommend this tour and Majo as a guide!

Great experience with lots of different sea animals - We joined the ocean safari as the last excursion of a two week trip around Baja Calefornia Sur. We already had done multiple whaling excursions, and this one was a 'bonus' in which we were not sure what to expect. In this excursion there is not really a fixed location where you will go and where it'll be packed with lots of other tourists, like in some other tours (probably also because it starts in La Ventana and not in La Paz, which is a lot busier). It is all about exploring the ocean and whatever animals are out there on that day. We were very lucky to stumble upon a big flock of mobula rays right away (even though it was quite early in the season) and we could go in the water and snorkel and see them up close. A really magical experience to swim along and observe these animals. During the remainder of this trip, we saw gray wales very close to the boat as well as a humpbacks with young and some sea lions. And along the way we came across a big group of dolphins that played in the waves alongside our boat. Our guide Mary and captain Jesus made this trip a great experience and the perfect way to end a two week trip and still see and hear experience things we hadn't before.

Ocean safari and snorkeling - Beautiful experience; you start looking for dolphins, whales, orcas and other animals from the boat; after a while, the guide found a nice spot to have snorkeling, and It was magnificent, with a large school of mobula rays swimming just a few meters from us

Incredible experience - Had an incredible trip! It's not the peak season, but still saw dolphins, whales, sea lions, and swam with a squadron of Mobula Rays. It was a rough ride on the way back, but still a great trip.

Top Notch - Mexico Travel Adventure is a top notch operation. From the moment we booked the communication was good, the lunch provided was great and the guide and boat captain were fantastic. While we didn’t get a chance to free dive with any animals, unfortunately, it was not for trying. We did manage to spend sometime with a baby grey whale, two separate groups of humpbacks, and a pod of common dolphins. The guide was a very knowledgeable biologist and was very interactive and fun to spend the day with. I would highly recommend MTA for any adventures.

Love and commitment more than work - It was an incredible experience, with patience we managed to see banks of mobulas, thousands of them, dolphins with their calf and sea lions. Thank you for the commitment, affection and care of Beto, our guide and Beto the captain of the vessel. Besides, when they found garbage in the ocean while we were on our way, they steered the boat there to pick it up. Admirable your commitment and love to what you do. Thousand recommended

Sperm whales and whales were a dream - I could not imagine the diversity and great surprises that the sea had in store for us in this place. Sperm whales, humpback whales, banks of mackerel under the pressure of tunidos, mobulas,... a nonsense of marine animals.

Amazing!!! - It was a great experience from start to finish, although we had no luck with the Orcas, we could see a lot of dolphins, Mobulas, Marlin and amazing sperm whales, which left us more than satisfied. Congratulations to the MTA team, great job!!!

Ocean Safari La Ventana - The attention of the shipper and our guide was excellent. We were provided with good wet suits and snorkellig equipment. Sandwiches were delicious. However, we expected to see more wildlife. We only were able to see a group of mobulas (unfortunately they were quite deep so we couldn't get any close to them) and a few sea lions at Cerralvo island which apparently are always there. Incidentally we also saw some individual mobulas jumping out of the water. According to our guide the day hadn't been that bad as sometimes they don't see anything. The other tourists that were in our group had done the same trip 4 days before and they hadn't seen anything during the 5 hour trip until the very last moment where they were able to swim with a big group of mobulas. We understand that there is no garantee to see wildlife but we expected higher possibilities for sightings. After this Seasafari in La Ventana we did other Seasafaris in Bahia Magdalena and Loreto and the abundance of wildlife was 10 times bigger. So for sure it is a nice and well organized excursion but you have to be lucky to do some good sightings.
