If you can connect with Nomad 'Shari' that would be my first choice on who to whale watch with. https://www.whalemagictours.com/
Here is Malarrimo's website: http://www.malarrimo.com/en

I've used Malarimmo several times. March is definitely best month to see babies. If you go with Malarimmo (esp. not on weekends) and once they get to
launch area wait to board a panga last and perhaps you won't get in an overcrowded boat.

Plenty of whale-watching businesses in GN.
Malarrimo run their tours as well, leaving from the parking in front of the restaurant. Can be booked book online or upon arrival: http://www.malarrimo.com/en/booking

As mentioned above, check out the new whale camp out at the mouth of the lagoon. That's where all the action is that late in the season, as the inner
lagoon has begun to clear out.

Hi there....if you want to come out with us please email me at sharibondy@gmail.com
I offer the only naturalist guided tour in the lagoon which really adds to your experience as I give an hour long whale talk before we board the boat
and accompany you to give you a play by play account of what you are seeing. I have lots of different options too....something for everyone from a
short trip to full day trips with a lobster lunch at our remote beautiful whale camp.
you can see what we do at www.whalemagictours.com or on our facebook page for daily updates Whale Magic Tours.
So if you want to learn something and have a magical experience, contact me!
this was me yesterday....

Sheri gets my vote hands down
Not only will you have an experience of a lifetime you will have a new friend for life
We met Sheri at the lagoon in 2003 I think and have been going back every year or so sence not just to see whales but also to her place in Asuncion
in the fall She has a great B&B there and fantastic fishing too boot. If you're into that sort of thing.

We are heading down to Gonzaga on the 2nd heading back to Arizona on the 4th then driving to Los Angeles California on the 5th then going to Fred Hall
show to look at boats and hopefully bringing one home. We will be down your way in the fall with it, I hope. Say hi to Juan for us and Happy birthday

Oh darn...I will miss you guys.
Yesterday was downright blustery on the lagoon so whales that tried to be friendly couldnt manage to stay by the boat but we saw some cool stuff
anyway. There were whales spyhopping all around us...probably wondering what the hell we were doing out there....hahaha.
and a baby kept lifting it's head out to look at us and climbed on it's moms back to get a better look at the crazy gringos.
We had a fun gang who took it all in stride!
even this osprey thought we were nuts!
