During the coastal tour, you’ll be able to observe dolphins, sea turtles, and, during the season, humpback whales in their natural habitat. Depending on weather conditions, you’ll also go snorkeling near Ballena Island and coral reefs, where you can see tropical fish, starfish, and other marine species.

The excursion includes visits to rock formations and natural sites such as Ventanas Beach and Tres Hermanas, notable for their coastal landscapes and seabird watching.

The whale season in Marino Ballena generally runs from July to October and from January to March.
