Guerrero Negro Whales Jan. 13
Went on a whale watching 3-hour morning trip in GN with Malarimmo Tours. There were only 3 people in the boat and we saw a lot of males and females
together but no babies and none of them came close to our boat.
My dog and I stayed at Hotel Morro.

Thanks for the update Mary- and for the photos. Nice images!
Glad you had a good trip.

Thanks for sharing.

We were there on Jan. 6, we saw quite a few whales and at least three mom & baby pairs. Nothing too up-close, but the babies were the smallest
I've ever seen, still a bit wrinkly even. Very cool. We camped under one of the palapas there the night before and the spouts offshore were too
numerous to count.
We were camping at Laguna San Ignacio for three nights before that, and went out on one panga trip. Still pretty early there, not too many whales
yet. A few semi-distant spouts and flukes, but we had a beautiful calm day and our panguero took us out the boca into the ocean farther than I have
ever been before. Crazy swells and currents swirling on the sandbars out there.
