We offer humpback whale watching in Ecuador with money-back guarantee if you don't see them. From Puerto López, in the heart of Machalilla National Park, you'll experience the most impressive natural spectacle on the Ecuadorian coast.
Humpback whales migrate over 4,300 miles from Antarctica to our warm waters between June and October. These giants measuring up to 52 feet and weighing 30 tons choose Puerto López as their mating and birthing grounds.
During our tour, you'll observe the natural behavior of these majestic cetaceans, possibly with jumps, tail slaps, and mothers with calves. We operate under strict conservation guidelines in collaboration with the Pacific Whale Foundation.
The tour also includes a visit to Salango Island, where you'll enjoy snorkeling in turquoise waters alongside sea lions and turtles, plus a delicious snack on the beach.

DURATION
It takes 2-3 hours from the moment we depart until the moment we come back to shore, depending on how much time we take in sighting a group of whales. We are in wild nature. This tour included a native guide (speak Spanish and a few English). The whales are free on the ocean. Sometimes, we have the chance to see many groups of whales. But we offer you sure, we find whales.
