      About this trip

      Arrive in the afternoon at SJD Cabo and embark on an extraordinary adventure in Baja, Mexico! The Sea of Cortez proudly houses resident mobula rays and orcas throughout the year, with the peak excitement occurring from May to the end of July when the mobulas gather in massive schools.


      During the months of May and June, we have the opportunity to witness the massive schools of aggregating mobula rays,  orcas, blue whales, fin whales, sperm whales, humpback whales, sea lions, massive pods of dolphins, manta rays, and more.

      Previous Years

      Our previous expeditions have granted us breathtaking sightings of blue whales, whale sharks, magnificent pods of dolphins, sperm whales, orcas, and humpback whales. This tour can be considered the ultimate blue water safari anywhere in the world!

      By the Law

      We work with local permitted captains in La Ventana.

      What are the odds?

      During the months of May and June, we have the opportunity to witness the massive schools of aggregating mobula rays,  orcas, blue whales, fin whales, sperm whales, humpback whales, sea lions, massive pods of dolphins, manta rays, and more. We have an almost 100% success rate of seeing schooling mobulas.


      In July, while the mobula rays have mostly left the area, we still encounter a orca, blue whales, fin whales, sperm whales, giant manta rays, sea lions, and other remarkable marine species!


      On average, we spot orcas approximately 15-20 times per month during May, June, and July, although not consecutively.

      The whale guide, staff at the accommodation and our on-site tour guide were all amazing people. They worked hard to ensure our stay and experience was enjoyable. If you are vegan/vegetarians food is limited and bland. You receive the same breakfast everyday. Lunch was different everyday but very bland. The main dishes served at restaurants are seafood. It would have been nice if we could cook at the accommodation so that we could enjoy some healthy vegetarian dishes.

      Don't hesitate for a minute—book a trip with Humpback Swims to see the whales of Vava'u, Tonga for yourself! SDLE runs a top-notch operation out of Vava'u, with comfortable, safe boats, knowledgeable guides, capable captains, and great lunches on the boat. On an 11-night/8-day swim tour, we got in the water with whales all but one of the days. Our last day on the boat was one of my most spectacular in-water days ever, and I've been a scuba diver for over 20 years. We were in the water for almost two hours with a mama, calf, and escort—incredible! Honestly, the trip couldn't have been better. Thank you, for an experience I'll remember for a lifetime!

      5⭐️+ Nadia has this trip dialed in, every detail, from the booking process thru the return to the airport. The trip exceeded my expectations in every way, the 🐋, Mystic Sands accommodations, morning breakfast, evening dinners, boat crews and Captains!

      Humpback Swims exceeded our expectations. Nadia, the owner, is truly dedicated to providing her guests with both safety and an unforgettable experience. We opted for the eight-day trip, and every single moment was absolutely worthwhile. Our overall experience with Humpback Swims was overwhelmingly positive. Swimming with these majestic creatures is truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and Nadia's focus on providing an incredible adventure is evident. We had multiple close encounters with humpback whales on all 8 days, and even on the one day with fewer swims, we found a "singer" whale, which made it far from disappointing.

      There are really no words to describe our experience in Vava’u, swimming with the humpback whales. This is an experience to be felt. There’s so much excitement, inner peace, and gratitude towards not only swimming with the humpback whales but this beautiful island and the lovely people who call it home. Thank you Nadia for arranging an unforgettable trip for my husband and I. It will by far be the best trip ever!!
