Late season whale watching - Took the family whale watching late in the season. The guide did her best to moderate expectations as it is late season and the whales aren't as active because they're fasting, conserving energy to head north, etc. but the whales weren't having any of it. They put on a show for us with plenty of tail slapping and full body breaches. The captain is in constant communication with other boats and quickly took us to active sightings. The guide was fluent enough to answer questions and keep young ones entertained - "Do the whales that aren't mating or birthing this season still migrate to Cabo, or do they stay behind in Alaska?" "They can't stay in Alaska because they would get stuck under the ice and drown." Late season whale watching around Cabo San Lucas is still whale watching in Cabo and there are plenty of mothers and calves still around. Whale Watch Cabo will make sure you see them. Be sure to take lots of pictures and videos, the more the better.

5 star service for family after my accident prevented my cruise! The best! - 5 Stars! Andre was extremely accommodating after a taxi drove over my leg on the way to our whale cruise. I alerted him and he immediately postponed our place on that morning’s cruise. He called back inquiring about my health and rescheduled the cruise for the rest of my family. Super courteous!

Wonderful! - We loved the speed and thrill of the zodiac tour. Our biologist was informative and excellent. The photos being included takes the pressure off of taking your own pictures and allows you to just experience the excitement. A wonderful tour. Had the added feature of actually hearing the whales sing.

Wonderful whale watching in Cabo! - Dominique was our guide and her marine biologist background was an added bonus! Her ability to give us information and take amazing photos and help Kevin the captain was amazing multi tasking! Kevin did an excellent job driving the boat in somewhat rough waters. Having the photos to download at home as part of the tour was great! We were able to watch the mother and calf humback whale jump and swim for over an hour! We appreciated that they stay a safe distance away for the whales.

Zodiac fun! - Respectful of the whales, well versed biologist! We saw a couple of mamas and calves and a few males. The Zodiac ride was rough, but fun!

Good action even on a slower day - Our guide and captain were very knowledgeable and gave us a great experience. They had seen orcas earlier in the day so not as many humpbacks. We did see a baby doing some head flaps so that was fun. The guide took pictures with a zoom lens so should get those soon! Highly recommend and they do practice ecotourism.

Show me the whales ! - I booked this last minute for my daughter and I after Viator screwed us over another whale watching adventure and we couldn’t have been happier . This zodiac was the perfect size to get super close to the whales and we lucked out and our boat was half full. We found 2 pods w baby humpbacks and got some great vids and shots . 2 hours is the perfect time as well. Would highly recommend!

If you only have time to do one thing while you're in Cabo, go whale watching Whale Watch Cabo! - This was my second visit to Cabo San Lucas, and with the amazing team at Whale Watch Cabo. They are the experts when it comes to finding humpback whales in February in and around the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific Ocean. I went on three different trips with them in the four days I was visiting the area. One of my goals was to do the one day gray whale watching trip to Puerto Chale and it was amazing! We saw over 30 gray whales, and the trip was organized very nicely, including comfortable, transportation and lunch. I also did one morning and one afternoon zodiac tour where we saw so many whales breaching at one point I lost count. Also saw a mom humpback and her baby. An added highlight was dropping the hydrophone down and hearing four different male humpback whales singing. I am planning on returning in February next year and cannot wait to be with their incredible team of biologists and boat captains again.
