We saw whales surfacing fairly close

Last minute reservation due to cruise line changing ports. Only 3 customers on board a nice boat that could have held 10. It was not a 'trimaran' pontoon boat as shown in pictures - much nicer than smaller 'tourist' boats we saw. The marina was at a different location from where our cruise ship tendered, so we used their pickup shuttle which was convenient. We joined a group of ships following 2 adults and 1 juvenile surfacing for air every 5 minutes. Our driver was very respectful by not crowding too close to the whales. February 28th was near the end of the migration - earlier in the year/month might have been a bit better. Unfortunately, we didn't see any 'breaching' activity. At the end of the trip, the boat captain offered to drop us off at a beach a 5-minute walk from where we tendered. He stopped in knee-deep water for us to walk to the beach. We got to enjoy the beach for an hour, and not pay for a shuttle/taxi back to the cruise port.

Operator response

Thank you for sharing your experience! 🐋🌊 We’re glad you enjoyed a more private tour and got to see whales up close, always a special moment! 🙌 We’re also happy our team made everything easy with the shuttle and beach drop-off 🏝️ Hope to welcome you back for even more whale action next time! 😊

Wonderful Whale Watching experience!

My daughter and I went Whale watching with Benjamin on their pontoon boat today. He was the best captain and we had a wonderful time. He was so informative and we saw a a lot of whales. Everyone that worked there was so wonderful. I did not want to get on one of those little boats and have to wear an orange life jacket. This was a really comfortable boat, we were protected from the sun and the staff was amazing! Thank you all!

Operator response

Thank you so much for your kind words! 🐋✨ We’re thrilled to hear that you and your daughter had such a wonderful whale watching experience with Benjamin. He’ll be very happy to know he made your day so special! It’s great that you enjoyed the comfort of the pontoon boat and felt relaxed and protected throughout the tour—that’s exactly what we aim for 😊 And of course, seeing so many whales makes it even more magical! We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you both back for another unforgettable adventure in Cabo soon! 🌊💙
