Discover one of the most memorable natural experiences in the region on a private whale watching tour from Punta Mita, created for small groups seeking a comfortable, respectful, and educational encounter with humpback whales in their natural habitat.
During the humpback whale season, these waters become a migratory sanctuary where whales arrive to mate, give birth, and nurture their calves. Aboard a private boat limited to a maximum of 8 guests, you will enjoy a calm and unrushed experience, ideal for observation and quality time on the water.
Throughout the tour, a certified guide shares insights about humpback whale behavior, migration patterns, and conservation efforts, while the captain navigates following all wildlife protection guidelines. As wild animals, whale behavior varies naturally; surface activity such as breaches, tail slaps, fin movements, or close passes is common, though specific behaviors are never guaranteed.
Humpback whales are wild yet peaceful marine mammals, known for their calm and curious nature. This experience focuses on observation, learning, and respect for marine life, always maintaining a safe and responsible distance.
Whale sightings are guaranteed during the season, and in the unlikely event that whales are not observed, your payment will be refunded. The tour operates aboard a covered, comfortable boat, departing from and returning to Punta Mita, with an approximate duration of 1 hour and 40 minutes, making it suitable for guests of all ages.
