dont worry Mike...we are going to have a great trip! Whale season in OJo de Liebre opened Dec.15 and there are more whales in the lagoon than usual this early. We have been seeing whales migrating south much earlier the last couple weeks due to the extreme cold up north...they boogie south when the weather turns cold.

We are expecting a fantastic season and usually this first trip is amazing! Early January is really neat because you may see a birth, mating, huge pregnant moms with their midwives standing by and of course those irresistible big little baby whales!!
See you soon. Here are some photos of last years first trip with my grandson & daughter.







Those of you wanting to experience a unique, intimate adventure and learn about what the whales are doing can join us. You can see what we do at www.whalemagictours.com Many of our trips are already full so it is a good idea to reserve early if you know the dates you want.

Are any trips planned between Christmas and New Year

JasonG - 12-16-2014 at 02:58 PM

I was just wondering the same, thanks for the info! We will be heading north from Los Barriles just before Christmas and plan to stop in Guerrero Negro for a few days. Sounds like it will be worth it to go out and see the whales then. Will tours be going out on Christmas Day? That would be a Christmas to remember for our family!
