 Whales are the largest mammals on the planet and they are also the most mobile. Whales have been known to travel migration routes that are over 12,000 miles round trip.
Baja California, Mexico is the turnaround point for the many whales that travel between the food rich waters of the Artic and the mating and calving destinations in the lagoons that can be found on both the west coast of the Baja peninsula and up into the Sea of Cortez.
The best time of the year to go whale watching in Mexico starts in January and goes through March, when you can expect to see the whales moving down the coast.
Whale watching tours in Mexico are available in the winter for the people that want to get in a boat and get up close to these giants. If being in the ocean is not for you just finding a high enough hill and a pair of binoculars will give you a breath taking experience.
