What you can expect
Experience one of nature's most exciting encounters: humpback whale watching in their natural habitat, choosing the experience that suits you best. We have two boat options, designed for different travel styles, but with the same goal: to make sure you don't miss a single detail.
You can sail aboard a spacious and stable catamaran, ideal if you're looking for more comfort, a family atmosphere, and spaces to relax and enjoy the scenery in peace. It's a great choice for families. The catamaran is suitable for wheelchair users and older adults, ensuring an accessible and comfortable experience for everyone.
Or, you can opt for a speedboat, perfect for the more adventurous and for nature photographers looking for more agile approaches, dynamic routes, and better angles to capture jumps, flips, and unique moments of the whales in action.
During this approximately 4-hour tour, you'll sail through the bay accompanied by an expert marine biologist, who shares fascinating information about whale behavior, migration, and habits in a clear and educational way, for both kids and adults. We also use an on-board hydrophone to listen to the whales' songs in real time, making the encounter even more exciting and authentic.
We have two schedules, morning and evening, and we include food and drinks during the tour.
Get a close-up view of their impressive jumps and movements in the wild for a limited season, and make the most of your visit to Puerto Vallarta with an experience that goes beyond a tour: a moment of real connection with nature, ideal for enjoying with the family or for taking home unforgettable images and memories.
