Mancora Whale Watching + Swimming with Turtles

We'll pick you up at 6 am at your hotel in Mancora and head to the town's pier. There, we'll board a catamaran to sail at dawn through a scenic area of the northern coast of Peru.

During the sail, we'll attempt to spot the enormous humpback whales that typically migrate through these waters between July and October. We may also encounter other marine animals, such as dolphins and sea lions.

After observing the wildlife, we'll dive into the Pacific Ocean for an unforgettable swim with sea turtles, which can grow up to 5 feet (1.5 meters) in width.

Finally, we'll return to the boat to enjoy music on board. Guests can bring their own drinks and food to enjoy on the deck. We'll dock back at the pier and return you to your hotel in Mancora, arriving between 10:30 and 11 am.

Animal watching

The coast of Mancora is a prime location for observing humpback whales and sea turtles. However, sightings may vary due to factors such as weather conditions and the breeding seasons of various species.
