Whale Watching in San Jose del Cabo
Experience the awe of witnessing humpback and gray whales in their natural habitat during their annual migration through the Sea of Cortez. Since the waters of Cabo San Lucas can get crowded during whale season, we run our whale watching tours out of our sister shop, East Cape Explorers, in San José del Cabo. This quieter stretch of coastline offers a more relaxed and intimate experience — fewer boats, calmer seas, and a higher chance of uninterrupted encounters with humpbacks and other species. It’s a place where you can truly connect with the ocean, guided by seasoned naturalists who prioritize responsible, respectful wildlife interactions.
