2-hour power catamaran whale watching from Cabo San Lucas: spot humpback + gray whales in Sea of Cortez & Pacific, cruise past The Arch, Mexican breakfast buffet, open bar with mimosas + margaritas, marine biologist commentary and responsible viewing practices included.
Sail out from Cabo San Lucas on a twin-level power catamaran for a 2-hour whale-watching adventure where gray and humpback whales migrate through the Pacific and Sea of Cortez each winter to breed and give birth in these warm waters.
Your marine biologist guide shares fascinating insights on whale behavior and migration while the crew keeps the open bar flowing with mimosas, Bloody Marys, beer, margaritas, and sodas. Cruise past the famous Arch, Lover’s Beach, and stunning coastline before anchoring in prime whale zones—watch for breaches, spouts, tail slaps, and playful calves. Fuel up with a hearty Mexican-style breakfast buffet: fresh fruit, juice, coffee, bacon and egg burritos, chorizo and egg burritos, bean and cheese burritos, chilaquiles, scrambled eggs, pancakes, and bacon.
This relaxed cruise meets at Dock 0, La Terminal de Cabo (next to Breathless Hotel), with check-in 15 minutes early.
Real talk: whale sightings peak December–April (no guarantee, but Cabo’s waters are prime), and seas can be wavy—bring motion sickness meds if needed.
Spacious catamaran with plenty of seating; book early for migration season.
Here's practical advice to help your whale-watching cruise go well, based on common experiences with seas, sightings, and comfort. We've pulled this from what past guests told us after their trips.
Common issues. Seas can be wavy—guests prone to motion sickness took meds and stayed shaded. Not wheelchair accessible—steps to decks. Weather rarely cancels; dress in layers.
High likelihood December–April, but no guarantee. Captains chase active areas. Past guests saw multiple species most trips—breaches and tail slaps common.
Pacific waters can be choppy—stable catamaran but motion possible. Guests recommended meds if prone; shaded areas help.
Yes for children who handle boat motion and cold. Families said kids loved spotting whales and breakfast buffet, but supervise closely.
Limited—breakfast buffet usually includes fruit and snacks. Notify early for adjustments. Guests found options sufficient.
Open decks give great angles—bring a good zoom lens or phone with stabilizer. Crew pauses for shots at the Arch and whale sightings.
Luxury catamaran, open bar, hearty breakfast, and marine biologist guide. Past guests preferred the comfort and included meals over smaller or noisier boats.
