"The clear, clean warm waters of the San Ignacio Lagoon are the nursery grounds for gray whale pods and their newborn calves. The whales arrive here every winter after migrating for over 10,000 miles from their Arctic feeding grounds, give birth, and nurse their calves in these relatively pollution-free waters. Recently, a large industrial project by Mitsubishi that threatened the lagoon was successfully turned back by conservationists. The area was designated a Biosphere Reserve/World Heritage Site by the Mexican government in 1988, but the long-term survival of this rare, undisturbed whale breeding and nursing site may depend on the advocacy of environmentally aware travelers determined to defend the lagoon after having visited it.

Best place for gray whale observation, encounters. Magic spot in the desert of Baja but with the comfort and luxury of first class glamping. Best food around and hours of whale watching. At night during cocktail hour marine life presentations by local guides and marine biologists. Highly recommend the experience but also the camp with “Baja Expeditions”
It’s cold. Bring enough warm clothes and windbreakers.
Tours are well organized and very safe. Everyone in the area is very respectful with the whales
People is awesome. We arrived by plane but it’s possible to drive.

San Ignacio Lagoon is one of the last undeveloped gray whale birthing sites on the planet and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In addition to its pristine condition this unique area sustains an exceptional diversity of both marine & terrestrial species. Baja Expeditions has demonstrated its unwavering commitment to conservation and responsible tourism. The gray whale watching season is short and experiencing it while being well taken care of at their waterfront Eco Camp is a priceless adventure.

A small oasis like a joint in the long arm of Baja. Very recomendable strategic and quieto. Out of the term evolution. The second área for whale watch. And an interesting place to ask for kalilocos.
