The most awesome experience(in the real meaning of awesome) We did the 8 day trip and it was the trip of a lifetime. We saw Blue whales and Fin whales with calves and had close encounters with Grey whales and especially a newly born calf, who children on our tour named 'Joey Pickleface'. We watched Joey grow over several days, at an amazing speed,in training for his big swim up to the Arctic Our guides and marine biologist were fantastic and the food and hospitality great.I cannot recommend the trip enough.
Stunning experience and a truly impressive operation. Don’t think twice to do this trip with these guys. We just visited with 6 family in 3 generations, age 13 to 80’s. None of us can think of a single thing that could have been better. The whale watching was the focus and incredible- we interacted closely with whales every single day. Boat drivers and guides mean everything, and these are so skilled. And the camp experience, from cozy cabins and daily happy hours to hot showers and local simple delicious food, fit the vibe perfectly. The camp staff are local and quick to laugh, most are family, and they clearly love making things great for their clients. Our group has done a lot of traveling and we’ve seen lots of whales. This still blew our minds. Go.
If you want an incredible up close experience with the grey whales who come to San Ignacio Bay to have their calves, and then raise them until they are strong enough to make the journey northward back to the Bering Strait or other colder water, come to this rustic camp along the shore of the Bay. The accommodations are very simple, and the food is far from gourmet, but the experience and the quality, passion and heart of the people who work here is outstanding. You will see whales, touch whales, even perhaps (as I did) kiss whales. The mothers seem to want to push their babies over to you, perhaps to socialize them. We found that children's voices and laughter drew them to our boat more than any other sound, including various types of music we played and cooing and other sounds we made. You feel so close to these animals here, and you learn about them, their habits and habitats, and what their life has been over the centuries, and the way human beings have treated them. It's a fascinating experience and a privilege to enjoy it, even once.
Watching gray whales play around the boat is some of the most amazing wild animal encounters I've ever had. Baja Ecotours made that experience even more enjoyable. The guides were very knowledgeable and helpful. They were very respectful of the whales personal space and let the whales approach on their terms. The food was top notch. I really enjoyed the whole experience.
The most incredible experience I've ever had, an incredibly beautiful and remote place, where the connection with nature and other people is impossible not to happen. It is not only amazing to the eye and the senses, but it is also a place to learn about our world. Being in contact with such beautiful animals in their habitat is simply magnificent.
The only place to go if you're going to do eco-friendly whale watching and expereince all that nature shows us. Incredible people, incredible facility we simply had a wonderful time.
It has been 19 years since my husband and I had an adventure of a lifetime. The thrill of petting a whale has to be an experience not to be forgotten. Camp was comfortable and food great. Wish I was 19 years younger and I would go again!
We used Baja Ecotours to swim with sea lions and see the grey whales feeding and courting near Magdalena Is. Both were incredible biological events. A great bonus is all the fish in addition to the sea lions. At times you are swimming in huge schools of them and there is a great diversity of them as well. We went to their brand new whale trip out of a small fishing village and saw the whales doing it all - spy hopping(right beside the boat), breaching, feeding, right beside the boat, under the boat& more. The company is very professional and gave a discount when they had an engine problem on the way back. Our guides were exceptional- very well informed and talkative. Both trips were very educational.

Beautiful and definitely worth checking out if you are in San Ignacio BCS
(Translated by Google) It is amazing to imagine the founding by the Jesuits of this isolated mission in the desert. Now it is a charming little town with trajinera and everything. It is essential to stop and try to go back in time to get an idea... (Original) Es asombroso imaginarse la fundación por los jesuitas de esta misión aislada en el desierto . Ahora es un pueblito encantador con trajinera y todo. Imprescindible parar e intentar volver atrás en el tiempo para hacerse una idea ...

I attended Mass there, and it was very spiritual… (Original) Lugar hermoso muy espiritual y de tanta historia más de 200 años de su fundación, me tocó asistir a misa y fue muy espiritual…
(Translated by Google) The Mission of San Ignacio de Kadá-Kaamán, an oasis in the middle of the Baja California Sur desert, is a testimony of the encounter between two cultures: the Spanish and the Cochimí. Founded in 1728 by the Jesuits, this majestic volcanic stone construction has stood the test of time and has become one of the greatest exponents of missionary architecture in Mexico. The Jesuits, with their tireless evangelizing work, not only built a church, but also established a community life center where the Cochimí indigenous people learned new agricultural techniques, trades and customs. The mission became a milestone on the path of evangelization, and its influence spread throughout the region. Today, Mission San Ignacio is a tourist destination that attracts visitors from all over the world. Its imposing stone walls, its golden altar and its frescoed murals tell the story of a past full of faith and perseverance. In addition to exploring the mission, tourists can enjoy activities such as hiking in the surrounding area, bird watching, and visiting local communities. The conservation of the San Ignacio Mission is a constant challenge. However, thanks to the efforts of government institutions, civil organizations and local communities, important restoration and maintenance work has been carried out. The goal is to ensure that this historical legacy endures for future generations. (Original) La Misión de San Ignacio de Kadá-Kaamán, un oasis en medio del desierto de Baja California Sur, es un testimonio del encuentro entre dos culturas: la española y la cochimí. Fundada en 1728 por los jesuitas, esta majestuosa construcción de piedra volcánica ha resistido el paso del tiempo y se ha convertido en uno de los máximos exponentes de la arquitectura misionera en México. Los jesuitas, con su incansable labor evangelizadora, no solo construyeron una iglesia, sino que establecieron un centro de vida comunitario donde los indígenas cochimíes aprendieron nuevas técnicas agrícolas, oficios y costumbres. La misión se convirtió en un hito en la ruta de la evangelización, y su influencia se extendió a toda la región. Hoy en día, la Misión de San Ignacio es un destino turístico que atrae a visitantes de todo el mundo. Sus imponentes muros de piedra, su altar de oro y sus frescos murales cuentan la historia de un pasado lleno de fe y perseverancia. Además de explorar la misión, los turistas pueden disfrutar de actividades como caminatas por los alrededores, observación de aves y visitas a las comunidades locales. La conservación de la Misión de San Ignacio es un desafío constante. Sin embargo, gracias a los esfuerzos de instituciones gubernamentales, organizaciones civiles y comunidades locales, se han llevado a cabo importantes trabajos de restauración y mantenimiento. La meta es garantizar que este legado histórico perdure para las futuras generaciones.

(Translated by Google) Beautiful mission dating back to 1786. (Original) Hermosa misión que data de 1786.
(Translated by Google) This town is amazing! Especially if you happen to be there for its festivals! (Original) Este pueblo esta a todo dar! Mas si llegas de casualidad a sus fiestas!
