Marine Mania – Sea of Cortez

Marine Mania – Sea of Cortez

Marine Mania – Sea of Cortez

A trifecta of up-close encounters of the marine kind!

We start off this feast of a day by visiting the whale sharks in the Bay of La Paz*. Each year the whale sharks congregate here from roughly late October through late April, and we have the opportunity to observe and even snorkel with them. DYK: whales are mammals, sharks are fish, and the whale shark gets its moniker from being the largest fish on the planet. At up to 59 feet and 15 tons it is definitely a whale of a shark!

From the Bay of La Paz we head north a few miles to Isla Gaviota, a Blue-footed Booby rookery, to check out our azure-footed friends. Many people think you have to go all the way to the Galapagos to find the boobies, but there are several colonies right here in the Sea of Cortez.

Just a little north of Isla Gaviota is the sea lion colony of San Rafaelito, where we’ll have the indescribable joy of snorkeling and playing with the fun-loving young sea lions. When we simply can’t keep up with them anymore, we’ll head to one of the area’s beautiful white sandy beaches to enjoy a terrific picnic lunch before heading back to Todos Santos. A remarkable day.

Swimming with Sea Lions

Swimming with Sea Lions

Swimming with Sea Lions

A marine wildlife extravaganza of a day!

We depart Todos Santos for La Paz, get our gear, hop in the boats, then it’s off to the unbelievable joy of swimming and playing with the sea lion puppies at the permanent sea lion colony of Los Islotes.
These fun-loving marine mammals love playing and interacting with humans, and are always disappointed that we can never keep up a game of tag as long as they can. Getting to the sea lion colony is half the fun of the day, as we regularly see dolphins, whales, mantas, sea turtles, coastal birds and more on the way there and back.

We cap off this wonderful day with a delicious picnic lunch at one of the gorgeous beaches on the incomparable Isla Espiritu Santo. It’s an absolutely fabulous day!
