Sirenita & I are excited to announce our new venture called Whale Magic Tours! We are teaming up to guide whale watching excursions in Ojo de
Liebre (Scammon's Lagoon) near Guerrero Negro...the biggest whale calving lagoon in the world.
Whale Magic Tours offers packages with either nice Hotel accommodations in Guerrero Negro or camping at the lagoon in protected palapas. We make all
the arrangements for your rooms, meals and whale trips and can also offer van transportation for groups.
Drive to Guerrero Negro yourself or take advantage of our Fly-in Packages. We suggest staying at least 2 nights so you can go out more than once if
you choose to. Our tours are already filling up so it's a good idea to book early so you are not disappointed!
Here is a video of some of our trips..starring lots of you Nomads!
I have been guiding in Ojo de Liebre since 1988 off and on and my daughter Sirena grew up in the lagoon and was "guiding" since she could talk!!!
hahahaha.
We have been doing trips together on occasion but we decided to team up full time during whale season, give ourselves a name, a website and establish
a camp in the lagoon. Look for us in the 1st palapa when you enter the park.
We have lots of neat ideas for our camp we are looking forward to trying out....like whale talks, kids educational programs & games, music, whale
stories around the campfire etc.
We will be operating every year from now on and are very excited about the future of our new venture. Look for us on facebook too under Whale Magic
Tours.
Ralf, many tour operators bring their tours to the lagoon and like them, we go out with the ejido pangas & lancheros..which we have done for many
years....Much of the ejido business relies on tour groups using their pangas.
thanks for the heads up on the typo....it's a new site and we are still working on it alot.....it will also be in Spanish.
Wow, Buddy...nice Youtube video! SWEET memories. You ARE going to be busy. I expect you can expect me to be in BA by the start of the season as it
stands right now. Lotta of figurin' still to do.

Oh sr.californian...I certainly do look forward to sitting around a campfire with you! thank you all for your well wishes.
As many of you know my daughter Sirenita is really coming into her own these days and this project is really about her reconnecting with her roots,
doing what she loves to do (yes, the manzana certainly fell close to the tree) and gaining business experience. Not to mention my grandson Izaak will
love lagoon life just like Sirena did at that age...with the crew there to spoil him and our amigos to homeschool him at the camp. It will definitely
be a fun couple months!
Of all the things to have fun doing in Baja, this is one that Baja Angel and I have not yet done... and I know from the rave reviews you have received
in past years, we would want to go on one of your excursions!
Howard, the music is Santana Samba para Ti..one of my all time favorites that Juan also plays very well!
the second song is Mana, my favorite rock groups in Mexico...this song says today I love you more than ever!
and the last song is from the film August Rush....La Bamba of course!

I see. so the Ejido still has exclusive rights and you contract with them. OK I wasn't far off then.
Good luck. Will your daughters husband be helping as well?
Shari, great vido, did you get my u2u? we are planing a camping trip this

David K. this is a must see Baja trip! Shari and her daughter are great!
I didn't think I Would like it, but my wife wanted to go. We are planing
next years trip at this time. If you want to join us we are looking at the
middle to late part of March. we have about 10 going at this time.

Can't wait, Great news ! This is going to add a whole new dimension to the whale encounter experience. We have wanted to camp at the lagoon for a
long time and look forward to meeting new friends and hanging out with family.
