There are few magical places left in the world where humans and nature can coexist in such a way that it’s as if time stood still. Magdalena Bay is one of those very places, and it’s waters tell a powerful love story between the community and the wildlife that call this place home. The abundance of life is evident from the first boat ride out- pelicans and frigates gracefully glide over the mirror-like waters into the vibrant green mangroves while the sea lions warm up with a bit of morning yoga. Their bay is protected under the largest wildlife Biosphere Reserve in Latin American, spanning 2.5 million hectares – so to say that it’s off the beaten track is an understatement. Bald eagles perch on branches along the mountainous coastline, while coyotes run along the sandy desert, but just under the water’s surface lies the last nursery and breeding grounds of the Pacific Grey Whale.

Join the Dive Ninjas Team of whale experts as we head to the winter home of the the Eastern Pacific Grey Whale Population – unique for making the longest migration of any mammal on earth – from the arctic to the warm waters of the San Ignacio Lagoon. Watch as these magnificent mammals teach, feed and socialize their young babies in the shallows of this whale sanctuary and World Heritage Site.
