What To Expect
The experience starts in La Paz, between 6:30 and 8:00 a.m. leaving for Puerto Chale. The trip lasts approximately 2 hours.
Upon arrival, we boarded a panga-type boat and traveled through the mangroves to the viewing area. During the navigation we have the possibility to observe birds, dolphins, and other species of the region.
The sighting has an approximate duration of 2 hours, during which we observe the majestic gray whale in its natural habitat.
WE DO NOT HARASS THE WHALES. We don't chase them, we don't surround or force any encounter. Species protection is a fundamental part of our experience. If a whale decides to approach, we enjoy that unique moment.
Throughout the tour, we have a Marine Biologist/Naturalist guide who shares information about the whales, the ecosystem, and the local fauna.
After the sighting, we returned to the port to enjoy a local meal for approximately 1.30 hours.
Finally, we return to La Paz and leave our visitors at the same pick-up point.
Schedules may vary depending on weather and navigation conditions, please pay close attention to your contact methods a few days before.
