Gray Whale Watching Tour at Lopez Mateos — Nature & wildlife things to do in Loreto

Experience one of the most incredible close up wildlife

encounters on the planet with the friendly gray whales of

Magdalena Bay.

Located on Baja’s Pacific Coast, Magdalena Bay is a world

renowned winter nursery grounds of the California gray whale.

Late December through mid March, hundreds of gray whales

mate and bear their young in these protected waters after

traveling over 5000 miles from the Bering Strait.

The gray whale calving lagoons gained acclaim in the early 1970s

when a gray whale made contact with a local fisherman, allowing him to

pat her head. Word spread of this remarkable occurrence both among the

fishermen and apparently among the gray whales, who now eagerly approach

whale watching boats and interact freely with guests on board.
