ITINERARY

The whales come to the shores of the Golfo Nuevo and San José by the calm waters. They will transit some of the most important stages of their lives: copulate, give birth and raise their calves. Gestation time is approximately 11/12 months.

Our tour begins along the coast, guided by our bilingual personnel, who will talk about the unique ecosystems by the coast and the sea.

When we spot a whale, the boat engine will be shut off and the only thing that you will be hearing is the sound of the ocean and the occasional bird passing by.

In this scenario, the whales will appear next to the boat and we'll live in harmony in the same place as long as they stay above the surface.

Approximate duration of the tour: 1 hour 15 minutes

All tours depart from the city of Puerto Madryn.
