Small Group Whale Watching in Bahia de Banderas

Bahia de Banderas is one of the most beautiful spots in the world for whale spotting. The best time to take your private whale watching boat tour in Puerto Vallarta will be between December and March because that is when humpback whales gather in the waters of Puerto Vallarta to breed and give birth. In fact, during those months you only need to venture out a short way from the coast to see large groups of whales. While we can’t guarantee your group will see whales on your Vallarta excursion, nearly all of our tours will enjoy an up-close, personal and private view of these majestic marine mammals.

Listen to the Whales Singing

Humpback whales are known for their beautiful and haunting songs, which are made up of howls, moans, cries, and clicks. Scientists aren’t entirely sure why humpback whales sing, though it’s clear that these songs are tools of communication and maybe a vital part of their breeding process. What’s fascinating is that the humpback’s song can travel for huge distances. Your private whale watching tour in Puerto Vallarta will include an opportunity to listen to the humpback’s vocalization with a hydrophone - a specialized microphone designed to be used underwater.

See Humpback Whales Impressive Breach

Humpback whales are not only powerful swimmers, but also one of the species of whale that will leap almost completely out of the water before landing with a huge splash! This behavior, called breaching or cresting, is amazing to witness because it’s still not known why they do it. Breaching is more common among groups of whales, which suggests a social element to the behavior, though humpback whales may breach because it helps rid their skin of parasites or they may just be having fun.
