Embark on an unforgettable 8.5-hour adventure to encounter playful sea lions and gentle whale sharks in the pristine waters of La Paz.

 

EXPERIENCE:

Discover the incredible marine life of La Paz on this full-day tour featuring encounters with sea lions and whale sharks. Departing from La Paz in the morning, we’ll embark on a 90-minute boat journey to Espiritu Santo Island, home to the vibrant sea lion colony at Los Islotes.

Upon arrival, you’ll have the opportunity to jump into the water and interact with playful sea lion pups in their natural habitat. Los Islotes also offers excellent snorkeling opportunities with shallow coral reefs teeming with colorful fish and diverse bird species.

After snorkeling and exploring the island’s pristine beaches, we’ll enjoy a delicious lunch before continuing our adventure to the whale shark sanctuary. From mid-October to mid-May, juvenile whale sharks gather in the shallow waters of La Paz Bay to feed on plankton, providing a unique opportunity to swim alongside these magnificent creatures.

Led by our experienced bilingual guide, you’ll receive all necessary snorkel gear, including a full wetsuit, and enjoy refreshments throughout the day. Our tour operates with a focus on sustainability, safety, and service, ensuring a memorable and responsible wildlife experience.
