Whale Watching in El Doradillo

We will collect you from your hotel in Puerto Madryn and head to the El Doradillo Nature Reserve, a thirty-minute drive outside the city.

From the coast of El Doradillo, you will observe the Southern right whale swimming through the ocean. This area offers the opportunity to see these marine mammals from as close as just 25 meters, allowing you to even hear these sea giants breathing!

El Doradillo is located in the Golfo Nuevo bay, the gateway to Valdes Peninsula, known for its ecological diversity with various wildlife, especially whales and dolphins. You will also learn about their feeding and reproduction.

The trip concludes with a brief guided tour of Puerto Madryn before returning to your hotel.

Important information

Southern right whales are unpredictable creatures. The number of whales you will see depends on sea currents, weather conditions, wind direction, and other factors.

Collection times

To maximize whale sightings, the departure time will depend on sea tide times on the day of your tour. After booking, the tour provider will contact you to confirm the exact pickup time from your hotel in Puerto Madryn.
