Cabo San Lucas is a great place for water adventures like whale watching, and it is a great experience to see these whales play in the waters of a beautiful place like Cabo.
To spot whales in the ocean, you must first look for any spouting, the visible exhaling of whales, since this indicates that there’s a whale or school of whales nearby. If you’re lucky you can get to see whales breaching.
Whales often give an exciting show when they breach in the water, or when they leap high out of the water and produces a splash upon coming down. It is also amusing when whales spyhop or when they came out of the water vertically and said to be checking on their surroundings. You can also touch them when they are spyhopping.
Unfortunately, you can only get to do whale watching from January to March. They migrate during the autumn season from Bering and Chukchi Seas between Alaska and Serbia.
Magdalena Bay, a known whale sanctuary in Cabo, is also a good spot for whale watching as this is often a place where the whales calves in a particular time of year. Whale watching tours in this sanctuary also give you the chance to see their young play with their mothers.
