Whale Watching Description

Cabo Sails offers private Cabo Eco-whale watching tours mid-December through March in a fun and respectable environment.

We are the only sailing company in Cabo who has lifeline netting all around the decks of our sailboats and catamaran for your safety.

Whale Watching Trip Itinerary

Los Cabos is one of the most spectacular whale watching destinations in the world. More than 10,000 whales including Blue, Fin, Pilot, Humpback and Gray whales visit the pristine waters of Los Cabos which is a natural refuge for these gentle giants.

You will also enjoy seeing the magnificent Finisterra Rocky Point of Land’s End, Lover’s Beach, Medano Beach and Los Cabo’s most famous landmark, El Arco (Land’s End Arch). If you would like to snorkel also, we take you to Pelican Rock in the Cabo San Lucas Bay near Lover’s Beach. The snorkeling equipment is on board and is included.

We are experts in the ecological wonders of the Sea of Cortes and Baja California and look forward to treating you to an amazing Cabo whale watching experience and sharing our knowledge about the whales, their habitats, migration and the different species and why they visit Los Cabos year after year.
