Discover the Friendly Grey Whales!

Every year, hundreds of majestic grey whales arrive at the San Ignacio Lagoon all the way from Alaska to mate and breed (learn more about the whales). From mid December through April, they gather with their new offspring in the peacefulness of the Lagoon. Once hunted by whalers, now they share this special moments with the adventurous eco-travelers coming from all over the world to enjoy this incredible lifetime experience.

You can live the thrill of watching them closer than you ever imagined, in their natural habitat, with our environmentally sound whale watching programs. Want a little try?

In order to fit your likes for adventure and confort, Kuyimá offers you three main programs from which you can chose according to your time availability and budget, so you can enjoy this and other natural wonders of San Ignacio Lagoon.

We also offer custom-tailored itineraries for combining your visit to the San Ignacio Lagoon with an expedition to the Cave Paintings or another Kuyimadventure.

"There, in that camp
on the edge of nothingness,
lying on our backs,
we reinvented the Galaxies
of that other so ancient mythology.
The night draws the outline
of the Dolphin and the Lobster,

of the Hawk, of the Sea Wolves
and of Kuyimá, the Luminous Whale.

New legends will grow
from this miraculous land."
