In the heart of Baja California Sur, surrounded by pristine nature and exceptional marine life, lies the Laguna San Ignacio, one of the world’s most important sanctuaries for gray whale watching. Four years ago, this magical corner was explored by one of the most recognized Spanish-language travel influencers: Alan x el Mundo.
An Authentic Experience with Kuyimá
During his trip, Alan Estrada —creator of the channel Alan x el Mundo— chose to stay at Kuyimá, our eco-camp located facing the lagoon. In his video titled “Ballenas en Baja California Sur” (Whales in Baja California Sur), Alan documents his entire experience: from his arrival at the camp to the close encounters with gray whales, sharing the thrill of seeing these ocean giants approach the pangas (small boats) of their own accord.
The video, available on his YouTube channel, has accumulated thousands of views and has been key to helping more people discover this natural paradise.

Kuyimá is not just a place to sleep: it’s a conscious ecotourism experience. Our focus is centered on respect for nature, the responsible use of resources, and creating memorable experiences for every visitor. We offer:
- Cabins and tents facing the sea

- A team passionate about conservation
Alan x el Mundo Highlighted:
“Here you don’t just come to see whales… you come to reconnect with yourself, to meet travelers from all over the world, and to be amazed by nature in its purest state.”
His words and his video have inspired thousands of people to include San Ignacio and Kuyimá on their bucket lists. Since his visit, we have welcomed travelers from everywhere who were motivated by that same connection Alan was able to convey.
Visit Laguna San Ignacio Yourself
Today, four years after that visit, Kuyimá continues to offer the same magic: curious gray whales that come up to say hello, unique sunsets over the lagoon, and a complete disconnection from the noise of the modern world.
🗓 The whale watching season runs from January to April.
🌿 Booking in advance is recommended, as availability is limited.
