It’s whale-watching season on Mexico’s Pacific coast, from Baja to Oaxaca The season runs from December through March, although some areas see whales to the end of May Published on Thursday, December 19, 2019
Whale-watching off Puerto Vallarta. VALLARTA ADVENTURESIt’s whale-watching season on Mexico’s Pacific coast, from Baja to Oaxaca
The season runs from December through March, although some areas see whales to the end of May
It’s whale-watching season in Mexico as the pacific gray, humpback and blue whales migrate to Mexican territorial waters to breed.
Officially designated observation areas are located in Baja California, Baja California Sur, Nayarit, Jalisco, Sinaloa, Sonora, Oaxaca and Guerrero, where the whale-watching season runs from mid-December to the end of March, depending on the location. In some areas the season doesn’t end till May.
The most common whale to winter in Mexico is the Pacific gray whale, which is seen over much of the Pacific coast, and the humpback whale, which is mostly found in the Gulf of California. A third species, the blue whale, can be seen in Bahia de Loreto, Baja California Sur. The whales migrate each winter to the warm waters here to breed, coming from feeding grounds near Canada and Alaska.
The whales can get as close as 200-500 meters from the beach, making it possible to see them from the shore. But whale-watching season usually means getting on a boat for an even closer look. During the season, many fishermen take a break from fishing and become tour operators. Since the 1980s, this has become an important economic activity for a number of coastal communities, especially those whose fish stocks have been depleted.
The Mexican government considers whale-watching tours to be an economically sustainable activity, but regulates it nonetheless. In certain sensitive areas, all human recreational activities, especially water sports, are prohibited.
Tour operators must be licensed and are restricted to the types of boats they may use, how they may approach the whales and how close they can get. However, enforcement of the rules is typically not quite as it should be, although following them reduces the stress on the animals and protects their life cycle.
While there are rules about how close humans may approach the animals, there are no rules governing how close animals may approach humans. Although never guaranteed, it is possible for these giants to get right up to the boat.
The whales of one lagoon, San Ignacio in Baja Californa Sur, are particularly noted for their interaction with humans. This phenonmenon has been documented at least since the late 1970s. Sometime before that, the story goes, one curious whale in this lagoon approached a fishing boat close enough to be touched, and one fisherman did.
It was the start of a kind of truce and agreement between the whales and the local population. Today, the whales in this lagoon are so comfortable with human contact that if you do not rub their head, scratch their tongues or splash water on them, they will quickly lose interest in you. Mothers even push their calves over to waiting and very willing humans.
This situation is not the norm for whale-watching in Mexico or anywhere else and is limited only to this lagoon. These same whales will not approach boats after they leave to head back north.
The success of whale-watching is significant after considering that whales, especially gray whales, were nearly hunted to extinction in the 19th century. At that time, locals called the whales “devil fish” because the mothers would attack small whaling boats after their offspring were harpooned. Those approaching boats today are the descendants of those few who survived that period.
Gray whales have since bounced back to an estimated 20,000 in the wild, but they are still classified as being of special concern by the Canadian government. Experts advise caution when interacting for the safety of both whales and humans.

We want to share information about our artisan workshops that we offer in Piña Palmera, in Zipolite. Come join and have some fun!
Our workshops are a collaboration between people with and without disabilities, and are open to the local community as well as travelers who are interested in socially-conscious activities while traveling:
CLAY: Each week we offer a clay workshop. This is a great opportunity for people of all ages, with and without disabilities, to take part in the creative process of working with clay. Our clay workshop is the only one with a fixed schedule, Wednesdays (3:00pm to 5:00pm) and Saturdays (10:00am to 12:00pm).
BIRD MOBILE PAINTING: The painting workshop is where we create our signature birds. In this workshop, you have the opportunity to see how we build our birds, and then paint the body of the birds with wings that are already decorated. We'll assemble your bird mobile for you so you can take it with you!
COCONUT OIL: Have you ever wondered how coconut oil is made? In this workshop, you'll learn step-by-step how we make our artisan, cold-pressed coconut oil. You'll start by chopping coconuts and trying the coconut fruit, the manzana. After drying the coconut meat, we use a bicycle mill and hand press to extract the coconut oil. Included in the cost of this workshop is a bottle of our own artisanal coconut oil.
RECYCLED PAPER: In Piña Palmera we make a variety of recycled paper products from diaries to notebooks to picture frames to single sheets. During this workshop, you'll learn how we make our recycled paper, which is possible to do at home! You'll also learn how we color our paper using local plants such as bougainvillea. You'll take sheets of recycled paper with you after the workshop!
WORM COMPOSTING: We have worm composting in Piña with California red wigglers. Come see how our food breaks down naturally when it isn't tossed into the landfill. The worms play an important role in creating a rich natural fertilizer, perfect for a garden. This workshop is a favorite for the little ones!
