San Ignacio Lagoon: home of the most extraordinary gray whale encounters.
At San Ignacio Lagoon, gray whales have been seeking out human company since 1972 — swimming up to boats and poking their heads out of the water, up close and personal! This is truly a trip of a lifetime — incredible whale watching and luxurious desert glamping in a UNESCO-protected reserve.
Every winter, Baja becomes one of the best places to witness the full great whale migration.
Few places on Earth bring you this close to this many whale species. Blue whales — the largest animal ever to have lived — fin, humpback, pilot, sperm whales, and orcas in the Sea of Cortez. Famously friendly grays at San Ignacio Lagoon. This is Baja at its most extraordinary. Intimate wildlife experiences, expert naturalists, small groups.
Wake up on a pristine island with one of the richest seas on your doorstep…
The Sea of Cortez holds more marine life per square mile than almost anywhere else on Earth. Dolphins, sea lions, mobula rays, whale sharks, orcas, great whales and more! Spend days exploring with expert naturalists by your side, and evenings back at our low-impact glamping camp — gourmet food, sunset drinks, and starry skies. Repeat.
All our adventures are planned around one thing: being in the right place at the right time.
Each departure is timed to Baja's wildlife calendar — orca and mobula season in the Sea of Cortez, whale sharks in Bahia de Los Angeles, the sardine run in Magdalena Bay. Wake up each morning exactly where the action is, ready to snorkel, kayak, explore, and watch it all unfold up close with expert guides at your side.

Watch your kids' faces light up when a gray whale surfaces inches away. Snorkel alongside playful sea lion pups. Spot dolphins racing your boat across turquoise water.
