Mancora Whale Watching + Swimming with Turtles

Pick-up will be at 6 am from your hotel in Mancora, followed by a trip to the town's pier. We'll board a catamaran for a dawn sail through a scenic area of northern Peru.

During the sailing, we'll attempt to spot humpback whales that migrate through these waters between July and October. There may also be opportunities to see other marine animals, such as dolphins and sea lions.

After the whale observations, we'll swim in the Pacific Ocean with sea turtles. Staying calm will allow for a close-up experience with these reptiles that can reach sizes of 5 feet (1.5 meters).

We will conclude the tour with music on board. Guests are welcome to bring their own drinks and food. We will return to the pier and take you back to your hotel in Mancora, arriving between 10:30 and 11 am.

Animal watching

The coast of Mancora is noted for seeing humpback whales and sea turtles. However, animal sightings can be unpredictable, influenced by weather and the breeding seasons of various species.
