4.9· 111 reviews· 5 hoursThe peninsula of Baja California Sur is traditionally known as one of the best sites in the world for kite surfing. However, in recent years, this amazing place has become popular along with Cerralvo Island (also known as Jacques Cousteau Island), for its Mobula ray abundance during the months of March-June, and for its whales and dolphins transit. These conditions have resulted in frequent orca encounters, as they feed on Mobulas. July to December is also a great time to do this adventure since water temperature and visibility will make this day an amazing adventure. During the winter, whales transit in between the coast and the island, which serves as another great opportunity to encounter amazing marine life.
