Insider Tips
October and November offer the beautiful warm weather and spectacular cobalt blue water and clear visibility.
The north wind can sometimes blow from December through March, but we know from experience exactly how to work around it. This is when loads of whales come to Mexico on their winter vacation. February and March are especially perfect for spotting blue whales in the Loreto National Park.
April and May have a charm all of their own as the water and weather warms up. Special features are enormous schools of mobula rays, pods of dolphins, whale sharks and fingers crossed that our spotter airplane will find orcas and sperm whales for you.
Luxury Liveaboard
Paddle as much or as little as you like in a kayak or on a paddle board or both. All from the comfort of your boutique hotel at sea completed with attentive service, fine dining, hot tub which is especially perfect under a starry Mexican sky, enormous water level back deck, and of course, individually controlled air con, shower and bathroom in each stateroom and suite. We will do the driving so that you can enjoy each spectacular location to the fullest.
Extra activities included with your trip: swimming with whale sharks, snorkelling with sea lions, guided shore hikes, introduction to scuba diving as well as diving opportunities for experienced divers.
