Whale Watching in Puerto Vallarta

  • 10 reviews | 202 travellers
    We had a great time overall. We left late because the previous trip was delayed by a cruise (I think it would be worth notifying the clients because it took more than an hour to have the children desperately in the waiting room). The trip was very good, the crew very friendly, the baguette and drinks were good. We did see several groups of whales, not so active, but in the end it was an experience that was very worthwhile.

Whale Watching in Puerto Vallarta

The tour meets at the designated time at the "Puerto Mágico" in Puerto Vallarta to board a boat in search of humpback whales.

We'll begin to sail through Banderas Bay while we enjoy a delicious breakfast of bread, fruit, a croissant, and juice. Also, you'll enjoy an open bar with soft drinks, water and some alcoholic beverages, such as tequila, rum, vodka or beer.

When you least expect it, whale families that migrate from Antarctica to these warm waters will surface from beneath the waves. Keep your eyes peeled for the calves! They're usually the most energetic doing the most impressive stunts.

Throughout the journey, we'll learn the most interesting facts about these species, such as the songs emitted by males to attract females, the integrated precision radar that means they never get lost, or what weighs down their hearts. And if we're lucky, we might see some sea turtles, dolphins, and local birds along the way.

Finally, at midday, we'll return to the starting point in Puerto Vallarta and say our goodbyes 3 hours after the start of the activity.
