The Whale Season : December 08- March 23rd.

A photo captures a single moment in time, and this specialized excursion is designed to capture the magical moment when you encounter wild dolphins and majestic humpback whales in the Bay of Banderas.

The essence of the Whale Photo Safari is to find the wildlife and enjoy those precious moments when you can sit peacefully and watch the whales and dolphins play, breach, eat, or just hang out.

There is no such thing as a "typical day" in this adventure tour. Of course, we will have a light, delicious lunch and unlimited beverages, but often it is the "wild ones" (the whales and dolphins) who are in charge of the daily itinerary. We cannot always predict where they are, so we will let them guide us along their preferred route of the day.

A light lunch and beverages will be served during the tour, which is included in the price.
The tour is conducted on a small motor boat, so please keep in mind that bathroom facilites are not onboard.

Additional Information

Bring: A hat or cap, sunglasses, camera, and plenty of film! You may also want a light sweater or jacket, and sunscreen. You may also want to wear your swimsuit and pack a towel.

All whale tours now require an additional 15 peso fee per ticket payable at the boat for the new whale protection organization.
