Whale Watching in the Colombian Pacific
Come and live one of the most wonderful natural spectacles in the world.
Cali Whale Watching | Suddenly, the calm of the waters of the Colombian Pacific is disrupted when a 3-meter-wide fin repeatedly hits the surface. Mother and daughter play while the youngest learns how to maneuver her body with her giant fins since in 6 months, they will be indispensable as she will have to travel more than 12,000 km back to the Antarctic with her mother.
The Humpback Whale or Yubarta is the leading character of the Colombian Pacific from July to October. This is the time during which the whales come to have their calves, teach them how to survive and to procreate with a male adult.
Come and live this experience with our Cali Whale Watching Tour. Here, cliffs beaches and bays become natural settings to witness this unique spectacle of nature. The unbeatable conditions will give you the opportunity to enjoy how these beautiful mammals emerge from the bottom of the ocean to perform for their guests, flapping their fins and making jumps.
