4-5 hours total. The order below is typical, but not fixed — whale shark time slots are assigned by SEMARNAT rotation and confirmed the day before your tour, so we may visit Balandra and San Rafaelito before or after the whale shark stop depending on your assigned slot.
Meet your guide at The Hook on Paseo Alvaro Obregon. Quick safety briefing, premium snacks and drinks loaded aboard, and departure by boat.

San Rafaelito islet, along the route between La Paz and Balandra. Snorkel with the resident sea lion colony — playful, curious, and easy to reach.
