What To Expect
Important update: since January 29th the whale shark season has been suspended temporarily because of lower temperatures in La Paz bay have caused the whale sharks to leave the bay and look for food further from here.
We expect them to return soon but we are not sure when will that happen. We have closed the availabilities for February in the meantime, and kept March and April open to book, but please keep in mind this information in order to plan your trip accordingly.
If you need more details please contact us directly to let you know how this is advancing. And check out our other tour options (sea lions and coral reef snorkeling, or Espíritu Santo Island full day trip) if you are in La Paz already
