Safari Sur

The South Point
of Isla Cerralvo.

Sea Safari Sur starts with a pickup in La Paz and the drive out to Ensenada de Muertos, near La Ventana, with 8 guests at most. From there the boat heads to the southern tip of Isla Cerralvo. Prefer to leave by boat from the Malecón? See Sea Safari Norte.

Sea Safari Sur, southern Isla Cerralvo, La Paz
01

Mountains Into Coral

At the southern tip of Isla Cerralvo the mountains drop straight into coral gardens beside deep water, and strong currents pull nutrients up from below, which draws the wildlife in.

02

Huge Schools of Mobula Rays

Mobulas gather here by the hundreds — acrobatic, curious, impossible to predict. When you find a school, you're swimming inside it.

If We're Lucky… Orcas

Never guaranteed — wildlife is wild — but orcas are encountered in these waters. Your guide knows the currents and reads the water the whole way.

The Bay of La Ventana

We work the bay first, with the resident sea lion colony at the tip of Isla Cerralvo, then push out into open water to look for sperm whales.

Lunch On the Beach

Burritos, snacks, or ceviche, served on the sand between water sessions.

5

Chasing the Next Sighting

Giant mantas under the surface, whales on the horizon. We keep searching the open water, because you never know what's next.
