Whale Sharks - The Gentle Giants of La Paz
Whale Sharks known as the “Gentle Giants”, these creatures visit the Bay of La Paz as they come here to feed in the plankton rich waters. Swimming with them can be both a humbling and exhilarating experience, particularly appealing to the young ones.
Our whale shark adventures are based out of La Paz where we have our headquarters at Marina Costa Baja. From here, it’s only a 30-minute boat ride to the area where the whale sharks are found. That means less time traveling and more time in the water with the whale sharks!
Not staying in La Paz? Don’t worry, we can arrange for ground transportation from Los Cabos or Todos Santos area.
