Whale Watching in Baja California Sur

With Kuyima Eco Tours, you’ll join a legacy of ethical, eco-conscious adventures, where these majestic 50-ton giants often approach boats, spyhop, and even nudge their calves toward curious visitors. January to April marks the peak season, as gray whales migrate 7,000 miles from Alaska to birth and nurture their young in Baja’s warm lagoons.

A humpback whale leaps out of the water, displaying its majesty in an impressive moment of nature.
