During this Combination Tour, we explore Marino Ballena National Park in search of marine wildlife such as humpback whales, Pacific spotted dolphins, bottlenose dolphins, and sea turtles. Sightings depend on natural conditions and may vary by season and from day to day.
If ocean conditions permit, the tour includes time for swimming in open ocean waters and occasional snorkeling. The route also features a brief pass by Whale Island (Whale Rock) to observe seabirds like brown boobies and frigate birds, as well as coastal scenery near Ventanas Beach with its caves and rock formations.
Whale seasons:
From mid-July to October, Southern Hemisphere humpback whales migrate from Antarctica to breed and nurse their calves in the area. From late December to late February, Northern Hemisphere humpback whales migrate from the U.S. West Coast. While whale sightings are never guaranteed, our experienced crew follows all regulations and uses their expertise to maximize wildlife encounters.

5.00This boat tour was amazing. We didn't see whales but saw dolphins, turtles, a heron and pelicans. Our guide, Jennifer is so knowledgeable and told us a lot about the area and the history of previous tribes. Snorkelling at the end was incredible.
Worthwhile trip

5.00Last day of our trip, great time - saw spotted dolphins and Female Humpback with calf. Guide was knowledgable and made the experience enjoyable. Boat was comfortable and not overcrowded; we, as a group, decided to skip the swimming/snorkelling and stick with the animals which paid off. Overall, well organised, fun and tour lived up to its promise.
Watch the whale jump, spectacular.

5.00We really loved the tour we could see the whales and the dolphins. The guys who do the tour worry that you feel good and enjoy the excursion to the fullest. Our monitor was Edward, they were all lovely.
Was left speechless & choked!

Amazing Combined Whale and Dolphin Tour

5.00We recently went on a combined whale and dolphin watching tour with Bahia. It was one of the highlights of the trip and the company ran a really tight ship. The entire family was impressed with their organization and communication. We loved the tour. Uvita and Marino Ballena National Park is absolutely stunning. We were able to really observe the behaviour of a mother humpback and her calf. It was a major highlight of the trip. We would absolutely book with Bahia again. You can also book with them directly instead of going through TripAdvisor, which was a plus for me.
