Mind-blowing

San Ignacio Lagoon Gray Whales

A 49 foot long gray mother whale approaches and gently nudges her newborn calf towards your boat, presenting him to be admired. There is a remote lagoon in Baja California where this dreamlike encounters is a reality, and a visit there will touch your soul.

After a few minutes of splashing, a curious calf approached and came straight to me. I started rubbing and scratching the baby and she was so happy about that I think she started purring. She stayed with us for a long time and changed the life of all of us on the panga. I’ve seen and done a lot of things in my life but this was far away the most amazing experience ever. The star lit sky that night in camp was second!
