Swim with Whale Sharks, Sea Lions, and Explore Balandra

La Paz

From USD 151/person

Description

Dive into one of the most thrilling adventures of your life in the Bay of La Paz, one of the few unique places in the world where you can swim alongside the majestic whale shark. These incredible creatures have roamed the Earth for over 60 million years. They can reach lengths of up to 40 feet and weigh over 25 tons! Despite their massive size, they are completely harmless, feeding primarily on plankton and occasionally small fish.

Our certified guides will take you on an unforgettable snorkeling experience with these gentle giants, ensuring a respectful interaction in their natural habitat. Next, we'll visit San Rafaelito, a small coral reef home to a sea lion colony and vibrant marine life, perfect for snorkeling. This site is part of the Balandra Natural Protected Area, where we’ll discover pristine beaches with crystal-clear waters and soft white sand.

To complete the experience, enjoy a delicious meal by the iconic White Dune or a secluded beach in Balandra. Whether you choose to swim, snorkel, or simply relax in this stunning paradise, this activity combines nature, exploration, and breathtaking scenery all in one day.

Excellent service. Very kind and very good.

Diving instructions and the location itself in Cozumel were amazing. We've spent an hour discussing our dive on shore and once we gotten underwater and passed safety checks, there was a pure enjoyment of dive for next ~hour or so. Daniel Lomonaco, if you're reading this, just know that you're so much better than an average instructor.

Very attentive and excellent instructors. I was able to leave my dog in their care while we went on the boat.
