Wildlife Encounters

We are passionate about offering our guests the chance to experience the natural beauty of wildlife in its most authentic form—wild and free. While our sea kayaking and whale watching tours explore regions rich with diverse marine life, it’s important to understand that these encounters are always on nature’s terms. Wildlife sightings are unpredictable and unplanned, which is part of their enchantment and wonder. We cannot guarantee specific sightings or interactions, as each trip holds its own unique discoveries. The thrill of the unexpected and the privilege of observing animals in their natural habitat makes each journey special. Our guides are dedicated to enhancing your understanding of the ecosystems we visit, making every experience a meaningful one, regardless of what wildlife we may or may not encounter. Thank you for joining us with an open mind and an adventurous spirit as we celebrate the wonder of wild places.

Please see our Baja Travel Guide for full details on travel to and from Baja.

Baja has a desert climate. The weather is typically dry, warm, and sunny, with temperatures ranging between 60 - 90 F (15 - 32 C). While it may be very warm during the day, temperatures can drop down to the 60’s during the evening hours. Please plan to pack appropriate layers for the evenings.

If you are interested in more specific information regarding the weather in Baja, we highly suggest this website; wunderground. If you put in the location you are traveling, and the date, it will provide you with historical weather data that you can use to plan for your upcoming adventure.

WHEN TO GO?

For many people, the best time to go is the time that fits their vacation, or when they want to escape the chill of winter in the north. Here's some other information to help you decide what would be the best time to go in order to meet your expectations and desires.  

Baja weather is much more mild than many places in North America, but it is still in North America, as it is north of the equator, and does have all four seasons. The summer months of June through August are blistering hot and rather humid in Baja California Sur. It's a time that sport-fishers and a few other tourists come, but it's not peak season due to the heat. All the summer heat has the benefit of heating up the sea and that is appealing to people that love warm water.  As the weather cools down in September and we begin our kayaking and tour season in October, the water holds that heat and the Gulf of California is wonderfully warm. If your dream is hot weather and warm water, then October through mid November is a great time to visit Baja. By early December the seas have cooled somewhat and daytime temperatures are lower. It's not cold by any means, but it's not hot either. Days are generally in the 70's (20’s C) and nights in the 60's. Clear blue skies and sunshine can make it feel warmer of course, but these are the true temperatures. We go snorkeling, but as water temperatures are in the 60's (15 C), most people wear the wetsuits that we provide.

• La Paz average temperatures
• La Paz Gulf of California average water temperatures

Winds are also a factor in Baja. The Gulf of California is less windy in October, November, and mid-March through the summer, than it is in December through February. That's why some of our trips, like Isla San Jose, are only offered during the less windy timeframes because of logistics and the orientation of the islands. Be aware that your trip may be altered by wind conditions at any time, but it's more likely to be an issue in the December through February timeframe.

Compared to much of North America, Baja weather is idyllic. Even the coldest day in Baja is mighty nice!  With the proper clothing and expectations, it's always the "best" time to be in Baja! But consider your wishes and the experience you want to have when deciding when to go. Always feel welcome to contact our staff if you have questions.

Sea Kayak Adventures Physical Requirements

Here at Sea Kayak Adventures our first and foremost goal is for you to have an enjoyable and safe experience. While most of our trips are suitable for beginners, some of our trips are more active than others and it’s important that you understand the physical requirement of the trip you choose. 

All of our sea kayaking trips are active adventures that involve some level of physical exertion and possible exposure to the elements including but not limited to wind, rain, heat, sun, cold temperatures and cold water conditions. Sea Kayak Adventures is able to accommodate people with physical limitations, disabilities and medical conditions; please speak with your Adventure Consultant if you think you will require any additional assistance while on the trip.  We ask that you consult your Doctor if you have health or medical conditions that could impact your ability to participate in an active and outdoor adventure.  In general, all trip participants must be able to do the following:  

• Wear all protective and safety equipment that are required by Sea Kayak Adventures and recommended/required by industry wide standards.
• Load and unload, on their own or with the aid of a qualified companion, the bus and/or van providing transportation for Sea Kayak Adventures activities.
• Reach the water access points (put-in and take-out) on their own, or with the aid of a qualified companion.
• Enter and exit the raft, kayak and/or inflatable kayak on their own or with the aid of a qualified companion.
• Remain seated and balanced in a floating raft, canoe, kayak or inflatable kayak w/ the aid of adaptive equipment, if necessary.
• Float on their back when entering moving and still water.  The participant must be capable of turning from face-down to face-up in the water with the aid of a Personal Floatation Device and must be able to hold their breath while under water.
• Remain calm and keep breathing under control in the event of a swim.
• Climb into the kayak, with the help of another person, should an involuntary swim happen at any point on the water.
• Make progress toward the shoreline or a boat by swimming in moving water and must be able to exit the water and ascend the shoreline once reached.
• Participate as an active paddler when instructed by the guide for the duration of trip. 
• Move about the campsite on their own or with the aid of a qualified companion on all trips that include overnight camping and/or lunch.

Physical Preparedness

Whether you are an avid sea kayaker, or it is your first time, you’ll enjoy these incredible trips, and share in our passion for adventure, commitment to conserving the environment, and relishing unique experiences. For those new to the sport, kayaking is easy to learn in the sheltered waters that we visit, and we provide all of the camping gear, kayaking equipment and guidance needed. In addition, we keep our groups small to allow you to not only travel intimately among nature, but to ensure you receive the necessary attention from our guides.

Baja Sea Kayaking + Whale Watching Packing List Overview

The packing list outlined below is meant to serve as a guide to help you plan, prepare and outfit yourself for your upcoming travels. We have provided our best recommendations and suggestions. These suggestions are broken down by your tour type and are based on the outlined itinerary, the geographic region, our knowledge of Baja, and our personal experience. We hope you find this list helpful, use it as a guide and feel free to amend it with your favorite travel items too!

Our whale camp is located on an island on the Pacific Coast side of Baja. At times it is quite a bit cooler on the Pacific side than the Gulf of California side. Fog and mist are common. When out in the pangas (motorboats) for whale watching, it can be windy and cool. If you’re lucky and the sun is out during the day you will need to focus on sun-protection. However, evenings are always cool and the weather is highly variable. Thus, be sure to pay attention to our recommendations about cold-weather gear.

Gear Provided by Sea Kayak Adventures

Sea Kayak Adventures provides all necessary equipment for your selected tour. This includes all necessary camping equipment for your tour: tent, sleeping pad, sleeping bag, sleeping bag liner, and pillow with pillow case. We also provide all necessary kayak gear including personal flotation devices (PFDs), paddles, kayaks, and three dry bags. We provide masks, snorkels, fins and wetsuits. *Please note if you wear eyeglasses you should bring your own mask to accommodate those or your own prescription lens mask. Our wetsuits are a mix of short legs and full length legs and we will provide one for you, but can't guarantee if it will be long or short legged.

• Additional Details on Sea Kayaks Advenutre's Kayak Fleet

Provided Dry Bags

At the orientation meeting on the evening, before we start kayaking, we will provide each guest with 3 dry bags (two 20-Liter bags and one 10-Liter bag). Your kayaking guides will provide a full explanation of how to use and pack your dry bags. That evening you will pack all of your gear for only your kayaking tour into your three dry bags. The smallest one is best used for items you might need during the day and is stowed inside the cockpit where you sit, or on the deck of your kayak. Sleeping bags are packed separately.

If you have extra luggage, it can be left at the hotel where you stay. If you do not stay at our recommended trip hotel be sure to check with the place you do stay.

Provided Snorkeling Attire

We will provide you with a shorty wetsuit, snorkel mask, fins, and PFD.

Luggage Recommendations

Sea Kayak Adventures are best enjoyed if you travel light. We think it is wise to avoid checking any luggage under the plane. If you do check a bag, make sure that you have everything that is either essential or would be hard to replace, with you in your carry-on/ personal item.

Use Soft Sided Luggage
We do not use dry bags for our Whale Camp tours. We suggest using soft sided luggage for your main bag. Since we do not use dry bags for whale camp; your bag will accompany you to our Whale Camp, where it will be transported by Van and Panga. Using soft sided luggage will make this transfer easier. This will serve as your main piece of luggage for the trip. During your kayaking portion of your combo trip, you will be able to store your extra luggage at the hotel since you will be using dry bags. In addition, if you do have a checked bag you can leave luggage behind in storage at your tour hotel during your whale watching tour & kayak tour.

One Small Day Pack
This dual purpose pack can serve as your personal item during your flights as well as your day pack during the whale camp portion of your tour. Outside zippered pockets are nice and allow you to organize your travel gear. Carry medications, travel documents, important personal items and other essentials or “hard-to-replace” items in this on the plane.

Baja Sea Kayaking + Whale Watching Packing List

Essential Items

• Passport – please check that the expiration if valid for the destination you are traveling to.
• A photo of your passport on your phone. A photocopy of your passport, inside a ziplock bag and stowed elsewhere in your luggage. (As an additional precautionary measure, consider leaving a photocopy with family or friends at home as well.) 
• Copy of your air tickets with ticket numbers, placed elsewhere in your luggage and/or email someone back home your air ticket information in case you lose your phone.
• Credit and/or Debit/ATM card that works internationally, ideally with chip technology (Some banks want you to notify them of travel plans ahead of time which often can be done online.) In Loreto there are two banks where you can get pesos using your ATM debit card. The one with the best rate is Banco Azteca.
• Plan to use cash (pesos) for small purchases, taxis and incidental tipping
• USD, CAD or Euros for guide gratuities at the end of your trip
• Watch or small travel clock with alarm (if you are taking a phone, this can serve as your alarm clock)
• Money belt or concealed passport carrier to carry your passport, travel documents and money, hidden under your clothing
• TSA-accessible lock for luggage security when not on your person (optional- can buy these at any travel or outdoor recreation store)

Adventure Clothing

We highly suggest that all of your kayak clothing is synthetic or wool, not cotton. Synthetics are also ideal for activity, as they wick away moisture from the body and dry quickly. (Added SPF protection in your clothing is always a great option for Baja). We recommend keeping one outfit out of the following packing guidelines as a “post activity” outfit for mornings and nights at camp. The evenings and early mornings can be chilly at whale camp, therefore packing according to this list is important.

• One - three pair long, lightweight, nylon pants with zipper pockets (zip off legs give you more options)
• One pair of nylon shorts
• Swimsuit
• Rashguard - great for use as sun-protection and extra warmth when snorkeling
• Sarong (optional, but super handy for changing clothes, laying on the ground, etc.)
• One windbreaker or light raincoat (better) that truly stops wind, for use on the pangas when whale watching
• One - three short sleeve button-up shirt(s) or t-shirt(s) (synthetic is best)
• One - three long sleeve shirts, ideally with SPF protection 
• One light-weight bottom layer like a long-sleeve synthetic shirt or merino wool t-shirt
• One medium-weight layer of fleece - synthetic or merino wool for warmth 
• One heavier-weight layer of fleece OR a "puffy jacket" of synthetic down
• Underwear
• One wide-brim, tie-on hat
• Three pair light synthetic or merino wool socks
• One pair sturdy trail shoes, or running shoes, to use for hiking and for casual camp time. They will get sandy at camp
• One pair of sandals with ankle straps to wear while kayaking, on the beaches, walking around towns, etc. 
• One buff - for sun protection as well as wind protection on cold days
• One warm beanie cap or ski cap (especially important on whale watching trips and November to March when cooler winds can be present)

Casual Pre & Post Activity Clothing

• One - two other comfortable pairs of bottoms: pants, shorts, skirts, dresses, etc.
• One pair other lightweight shoes for time in town
• One - two tops: short sleeve, long sleeve and/or button up shirt(s)
• One light sweater or jacket for warmth in the evenings and mornings
• One pair pajamas

Additional Gear

• Retaining strap for glasses and sunglasses
• Flashlight or Headlamp
• One pair of paddling gloves
• One pair of light wool gloves if you get cold easily
• Small day pack or fanny pack for hikes (optional)
• One large-mouth water bottle, 1 liter or larger
• One carabiner (this is optional but useful for clipping your water bottle to your kayak)
• Towel (small lightweight towel, backpacking style works great)
• Camera and appropriate charging mechanism (We do have a solar panel at whale camp that can recharge phones but it doesn’t always work based on sunshine.)
• Waterproof Camera Case
• Binoculars or monocular
• Glasses or contacts if needed
• Polarized sunglasses
• Reusable dirty/clean gear bags for wet or soiled items
• Small reusable, leak-proof bags for liquid or pillable personal items
• Books or E-reader, pen, and notepad, headphones. If you want to listen to music, please do it privately with earbuds or headphones.
• Small travel pillow if you require more support than provided pillow.

Toiletries and First Aid

• Standard toiletry kit including general hygiene products, toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant, etc. (keep liquids under 3.38 oz.(100ml) for carry-on)
• Insect Repellent Bug Spray or Bug Balm
• Reef safe sunscreen (we highly recommend Stream2Sea as a reef safe option)
• Lip balm with SPF 20-50
• Pre-moistened toilette packets or disposable shower wipes to refresh
• Prescriptions and any necessary personal medicines (please be sure to bring necessary prescriptions and any needed emergency medicine such as an EpiPen, Benadryl, etc)
• Heavy-duty skin lotion for dry, sun-baked, and salted skin
• Small bottle of hand-sanitizer gel
• Shampoo and soap (we recommend biodegradable, multi-purpose options)
• *Optional female urinary device (allows women to urinate standing up without removing clothing). Silicon or hard plastic ones work great. Popular name brands include Gogirl and Shewee.

Insect Repellent

Mosquitoes and no-see-ums (sand flies) are sometimes present during our Baja tours. Please ensure that you pack a quality insect repellent and consider full-coverage clothing for the evenings and time around camp. The full-coverage clothing will provide great sun protection as an added bonus. We recommend repellent with DEET or Picaridin Insect Repellent (Picaridin is less toxic and less harsh on gear/clothing than DEET. Here is one example of a Picaridin-based repellent.

A NOTE ON GRATUITIES:
Like anyone in the service business, outdoor adventure guides appreciate gratuities. Our guides are some of the best and most highly trained in the business. They not only guide you through the salty waves, but set up camp, cook and serve gourmet meals, provide interpretation on the natural and cultural history of the area and strive to provide the highest level of hospitality. Tipping is ultimately a personal decision, however if you appreciate the service your guides provided, then as a guideline we suggest a gratuity of 10-20% of the trip price.
Tips can be given to the SKA Trip Leader at the end of the trip in the form of cash. The Trip Leader distributes the tip equally among the guides and gives a portion to SKA’s behind-the-scenes, unsung heroes like our drivers and food shoppers.
