1473-1473 Travel Guide

Every winter and spring, gray and humpback whales migrate from northern waters to the warm waters off Baja California to breed and calve, making Los Cabos a world-famous whale-watching destination. Boat trips often show whales spouting, breaching and tail-slapping—giant creatures close at hand, awe-inspiring. Choose a regulated, licensed operator, keep a safe distance, don't chase or disturb them, and let these ocean giants live freely. Watch with awe and care to honor this precious encounter with nature.
