What to expect
Humpbacks breach off the cape all winter and greys pass on their way to the lagoons. Small boats with a marine biologist and a hydrophone put you close enough to hear the singing, with a sighting guarantee on most operators.
Humpbacks and greys + hydrophone + guarantee Departures run from Baja California & Los Cabos, and the whole experience takes about 2.5 hours — enough to fit it into a single day of a wider Baja California & Los Cabos itinerary.
