Whale Sharks in Late November?


Are there any Baja locations that have a reliable Whale Shark presence in late November? I am trying to plan an adventure for the family over Thanksgiving week.

If not - any good ideas for exposing the kidos to a fantastic Baja trip?

Thanks in advance!

I have always caught them in the summertime. Make sure you have a large gaff, those big boys really put up a fight.

Bahia de Los Angeles is your best bet. In my experience October is the best month, but I have never been there in November. Can't believe they'd all be gone so I think chances are pretty good that you will see some in November. Are we talking early or late November? Ooops I see you said late November. Still think there would be some around.

I have seen them there as late as Thanksgiving, but that is pretty much the end of the season. Good luck
