Whale Watching in El Doradillo

After collection from your hotel in Puerto Madryn, we will head to the El Doradillo Nature Reserve, a thirty-minute drive from the city. From the coast of El Doradillo, we will observe the Southern right whale swimming through the ocean. This area of the southern Atlantic provides the opportunity to see these whales from as close as 25 meters, allowing you to hear them breathe.

El Doradillo is situated in the Golfo Nuevo bay, which serves as the ocean gateway to the Valdes Peninsula. This region boasts ecological diversity with various wildlife, particularly whales and dolphins. While observing these creatures, we will learn about their feeding and reproduction.

The trip concludes with a guided tour of Puerto Madryn before returning to your hotel in the city center.

Important information

Southern right whales are unpredictable creatures. The number of whales visible during your tour will depend on sea currents, weather conditions, wind direction, and other factors.

Collection times

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