Description

Cruise Past Cabo’s Iconic Arch and Meet the Sea Lions Up Close

 Your adventure sets sail from the Cabo San Lucas marina, where a spacious catamaran awaits. After boarding, the experience begins with a scenic cruise along the coast, offering a close-up view of dramatic rock formations and the famous Lover’s Beach. A highlight here is the legendary Arch of Cabo San Lucas, a natural wonder that sets the scene for unforgettable photos.

Before moving further into the ocean, you’ll stop by a local colony of sea lions basking on the rocks. Their playful interactions and loud barks add a fun, wildlife-focused moment to the start of the tour. It’s a rare opportunity to observe these animals in their natural habitat without disturbing them.


Spot Gray and Humpback Whales During Their Seasonal Migration in Cabo

 With the coastline behind you, the catamaran shifts into full whale-watching mode. This is where the tour lives up to its name: chasing the mighty Kraken. Between December and April, Cabo becomes a migration destination for gray and humpback whales, who come to these waters to breed and give birth.

A certified guide and marine biologist are on board to enrich the journey with fascinating facts. They’ll help you identify different species and explain behaviors like breaching, tail-slapping, and spy-hopping. This gives every sighting more meaning and makes the experience feel educational as well as exciting.


Enjoy Breakfast and Open Bar While Watching Whales From the Catamaran Deck in Cabos

 As the catamaran sails alongside these gentle giants, you’ll enjoy a freshly prepared breakfast and sip your favorite drinks from the open bar. With plenty of room on deck, it’s easy to take photos or simply enjoy the moment as whales surface around you.

As the tour winds down, you'll return to Cabo with a camera full of once-a-year sightings and a deeper understanding of whale behavior thanks to your onboard experts. From the iconic Arch to the migration routes of the Pacific’s largest visitors, every stop reveals why Cabo is one of Mexico’s top whale-watching destinations.
