Whale Watch Catamaran - Cabo
Cabo San Lucas
Description
Whale Watching Adventure on a Luxury Catamaran in Cabo San Lucas
Experience the magic of the whale-watching season in Cabo San Lucas, running annually from December 15th to April 15th, with peak sightings between late December and the end of March.
Set sail aboard a luxurious 40’ Gemini Free Style catamaran, gliding through the stunning waters of the Sea of Cortez and the Pacific Ocean. Your journey includes iconic Cabo highlights such as The Arch, the sea lion colony, Pelican’s Rock, Lover’s Beach, and more. Along the way, be on the lookout for the awe-inspiring humpback whales in their natural habitat.
Humpback whales are the most commonly seen species during Cabo’s whale-watching season. These magnificent creatures are part of the North Eastern Pacific Population, estimated at over 18,000 whales with an annual growth rate of 6-7%. Despite their growth, they remain vulnerable to threats such as entanglement, ship strikes, and environmental pollution.
Cabo’s unique location at the southern tip of the Baja Peninsula makes it a prime destination for whale watching and research. Many female humpbacks return yearly to mate and calve, spending the entire winter season in these waters. Cabo is also a migration corridor, offering sightings of whales heading south in November and December and returning north in March and April.
Don’t miss this unforgettable experience to connect with the natural beauty of Cabo San Lucas and its incredible marine life. Book your whale-watching adventure today!

Swimming with the whale sharks was worth every penny! No sunscreen so wear a swim shirt or rent a wetsuit. Our Captain Solomon was fabulous and our guide Nano was fun, energetic and did everything he could to make this a magical experience for everyone on board. We were the first pick up and last drop off which meant for a super long day but highly recommend!!

We took the whale shark watching tour; we had a fantastic day with tons of sharks. Truly a dream. I would recommend it a thousand times over.

This was an amazing excursion. The Captain knew right where to drop you in so you can swim along the whale shark. If you hesitate, you ok be behind. The captain’s mate did a wonderful job of orienting you once you jumped in the water and he took amazing photos and video. I definitely recommend Gluup for this trip.
