Frequently ask questions

Humpback whales visit us in winter. The season begins in mid-December and ends approximately at the end of March, with January and February being the busiest months.
The humpback whale is the protagonist of this adventure, they go down the Pacific in search of warm waters to mate, so at the beginning of the season we will find adult whales, but as the season progresses we will find calves. Dolphins, manta rays, and sea turtles are some of the animals that constantly come by to say hello.
No, our commitment to the environment, care, and respect for the species that inhabit our bay is a key part of what Akali Catamaran is, which is why we follow all the regulations established to guarantee the safety of both. of marine spices and our crew, avoiding following the whales and allowing them to get as close as they want.
There are no extra fees to pay for whale watching, either port fees if you depart from public docks, as we do

Comfortable, exciting whale tour. Amazing trip from start to finish. Roughly 4 hours out on the water and we were able to around 15 whales. We even were able to catch a few jumps. We were provided fruit for breakfast and sandwiches for lunch, there was also a bar for those indulging. Overall a great trip with an amazing crew on a very spacious catamaran.

Family Friendly and Entertaining The crew was excellent. They went above and beyond when my 5 y/o got sea sick on board. They were attentive to everyone providing both food and drinks to your seat. They even provide some entertainment. The sandwiches were good, and the guacamole was excellent. We saw 5 groups of whales - some breaching. Highly recommend.
