Every year over the summer, hundreds of whale sharks migrate to Bahia de los Angeles, a marine reserve located in the Sea of Cortez, Baja California. It is also one of the few places in the world where hundreds of whale sharks gather on a seasonal basis.
Where: Join us for this amazing once-in-a-lifetime trip to Bahia de los Angeles. This very remote fishing village is located halfway down the Baja Peninsula on the Sea of Cortez.
What to expect:
Day 1 – Carpool from Goodyear, AZ around 9:00am to San Felipe MX approximately 340 miles (5.5 hours). Enjoy one night in a hotel one block from the ocean.
Day 2 – Drive south which is very beautiful with several picturesque stops on the way, arriving in Bahia De Los Angeles, approximately 220 miles (3.5 hours). We then arrive at Villa Bahia, our hotel, and settle into our rooms. Welcome drinks and appetizers will be served upon your arrival. We will then give briefings on our weekly activities and other opportunities at that time.
Day 3 – Relax and unwind! We will do refresher/checkout dives off Villa Bahia’s beach to check gear, get properly weighted and most importantly, get comfortable breathing under water. Then we relax, swim, float, sun and chill. Kayaks are available and a couple palapas right on the water for shade.
Day 4 – Breakfast at 7am. The Panga’s (dive boats) will pick us up, and our gear, on our beach at 8am. Very convenient! Pick the best location for diving that day and off we go! We will do back roll entries from our panga boats on every dive. We will dive two tanks per day. On our surface intervals, we explore the islands by boat, look for dolphins or whales and educate you on the surrounding Sea of Cortez. We have lunch on a nearby beach and after the second dive, then off to snorkel with the WHALE SHARKS!! This is amazing!! Then back to our hotel we go, to relax, walk on the beach, nap, kayak, paddleboard or fish and did we say….. ??? RELAX!!!
Days 5-8 - We will repeat day four. Something different every day with so much to explore. Underwater sea life is amazing and different on each and every dive.
Day 9 - It is time for our journey home! We'll depart around 8am and drive back to Goodyear, arriving in Goodyear around sunset.
