Day 0: Arrive in Loreto

Upon arrival at the Loreto Airport take a quick cab ride to your hotel. After checking in (not included in the tour cost) you are on your own to explore Loreto, take a walk down the malecon, or relax by the hotel pool before your evening orientation meeting.  At the orientation meeting you will meet your guides who will give you details about the plan for the next morning and answer any questions you may have.

Day 1: Travel to Adolpho Lopez Mateos, Whale Watching and Whale Camp

We depart from Loreto, Baja, Mexico early in the morning and drive about two and a half hours across the Baja peninsula to the coastal town of Adolpho Lopez Mateos. 

On arrival in Lopez Mateos, we board a panga (motorized skiff) piloted by one of the local fishermen. We work with a local fishing cooperative for our whale watching, and our trips are a significant contributor to their income, which substitutes for commercial fishing during the two months of the whale watching season. Before launching, we discuss a few “rules of respect” relative to whale-watching and head out. There is palpable excitement in the air as we see whales blow, perhaps breach, and swim in the protected waters of Magdalena Bay. When we find a whale that seems relatively stationary, we cut our motors and float. It’s then up to the whale to engage with us or not. Sometimes they choose to swim away. Sometimes they approach us, coming right up to the edge of our 22’ (7 meter) boats. If we don’t interact with the whales, they quickly lose interest and leave. 

After about two hours of whale watching we arrive at our camp. We welcome you with lunch, and after people have settled into their comfortable stand-up canvas tents, our guides lead a nature hike across the dunes to the open Pacific. The camp is set near the channel that joins the ocean to the lagoon and often whales are traveling through this opening, either entering or exiting the lagoon. We sometimes see whales passing fairly close to camp, as well as dolphins.

Soon it's time for appetizers, followed by a dinner of typical Mexican fare prepared by our local cook. After dinner, we gather in our camp dome which is the perfect setting for a presentation on the natural history of the gray whales. Guests love these interactive sessions where we all learn about the lives of these giant sea creatures. Our guides have a depth of knowledge they love to share. Some are marine biologists and others grew up in fishing families. They bring passion to their talks and hope to create more advocates for the protection of the whales and the world’s oceans.

The evening sky may invite stargazers, and soon it's time for bed.

• Accommodations: Beach Camping
• Meals: Lunch, Dinner

Day 2: Sea Kayaking, Sand Dunes and Mangroves

Soon after sunrise we eat a hearty breakfast, pack up our gear and get on a panga for another two-hour whale watching session. We travel south, returning to Lopez Mateos where our kayaks are waiting.  Our guides give a thorough safety orientation and we begin our paddle south.  We don't go too far before it's time to stop for lunch on an expansive beach. A few more miles of paddling and we arrive at our first night of kayak camping.  The guides quickly set up the kitchen as guests set up their tents if our panga crew hasn't already.  You may be ready for a rest, or perhaps a walk through the dunes to soak in the beauty of raw nature.  As the sun sets, appetizers are served, followed by dinner and a starlit sky.

• Accommodations: Beach Camping
• Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Day 3-5: Sea Kayaking, Sand Dune Hiking, Wildlife Viewing

Time slows down in nature and being unplugged is part of the joy of this trip.  Soon after sunrise we fuel up with breakfast.   Soon we're in our kayaks and paddling south.  These are days to relish life and wide-open spaces. Very few people visit this area, so the sense of isolation and raw nature is palpable. Wind-swept dunes rise above the salt water, providing home for many species of plants and animals. Your guides share their knowledge of this ecosystem, but the main reward comes from simple observation. Back on the water, we continue our way. We paddle through the narrowest channel of our trip, the Curva del Diablo. We fall into a peaceful paddling rhythm, soaking in the salty air while also enjoying each stroke. We paddle among the mangroves and along the edges of the dunes.  Our lunch stops give us more time to explore and rejuvenate. Late afternoon we arrive at camp, each slightly different, but all offering options for walking, relaxing with a book, or simply watching the sea.

Accommodations: Beach Camping

• Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner

Day 6: Morning paddle, Arrive San Carlos, Return to Loreto

Today is one of our longer paddles as we travel around 12 miles south with a mountainous island on our right and mangroves on our left.  Salt air fills our lungs while seabirds fly overhead.  The channel gradually opens into a larger bay and around lunchtime we arrive in the fishing town of San Carlos.  After lunch we load up the kayaks and begin our three hour drive northeast to Loreto.  On arrival check into your hotel.  Together with your guides enjoy a no-host dinner at a local restaurant.

Note:  If you have the time, we encourage you to extend your trip by joining one of our one-day excursions from Loreto.  These include a day of blue whale watching, hiking in Tabor canyon or a visit to the mission town of San Javier. 

• Accommodations: Not Included
• Meals: Breakfast, Lunch

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

Baja Temperatures: 

Baja has a desert climate. The weather is typically dry, warm, and sunny, with temperatures ranging between 60 - 90 F. While it may be very warm during the day, temperatures can drop down to the 60’s (50’s at Whale Camp) 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.  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.  

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 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 (15 C). 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.

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

Whales!  Both the Gulf of California (Sea of Cortez) and the Pacific are important habitats for whales who come here by the thousands. Seeing gray whales at our Magdalena Bay whale watching camp on the Pacific coast, is a highlight for many.  The mothers arrive starting in late December to give birth and nurture their calves before swimming north to Arctic waters, starting in late March and April.  On the Gulf of California side of the Baja peninsula there are blue, minke, fin and orcas and we often see these while we are kayaking from mid-January to mid-March.  Seeing whales is a big draw for many and one reason our peak season is generally mid-January through late March.  If you don't care so much about whales, and warmer weather is of paramount importance, then it's best to come outside of the whale season.  You will still see plenty of marine life, and some animals, like manta rays, are more active in the late spring.

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.

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.

WHALE WATCHING CAMP 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. If you pack according to this list, you will have what you need. 

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. At whale camp we have standing canvas tents, each with two cots. In addition, we provide a 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.

• Additional Details on Sea Kayak Adventures 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.

Luggage Recommendations:

Sea Kayak Adventures trips 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.

We recommend packing in one soft sided, roll-on (ideally a non-hard-sided version) or duffle luggage that meets carry-on requirements. Alternatively, if you must have a checked bag; make sure your personal item is packed with your “hard to replace items.” You will be able to leave luggage not needed for your kayaking trip in hotel storage.

We also recommend bringing one small day pack.  This dual purpose pack can serve as your personal item during your flights as well as your day pack for hikes during the 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 Whale Watching Packing List:

Essential Items

• Passport – please be sure it is 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

• TSA-accessible lock for luggage security when not on your person (optional- can buy these at any travel or outdoor recreation store)

Active 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 “pre and post-activity” outfit for mornings and nights at camp.

• One - two pair long, lightweight, nylon pants with zipper pockets (zip off legs give you more options)
• One- two pair nylon shorts
• Swimsuit
• 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
• One windbreaker or light raincoat (better) that truly stops wind, for use on the pangas when whale watching
• Sarong (optional, but super handy for changing clothes, laying on the ground, etc.)
• One - three short sleeve button-up shirt(s) or t-shirt(s) 
• One - three long sleeve shirts, ideally with SPF protection 
• Underwear
• One wide-brim, tie-on hat
• Three pair light synthetic or merino wool socks
• One pair tennis or running shoes, to use for hiking and for casual camp time that can get sandy
• 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

*The suggested numbers of clothing items are based on a one week adventure tour. We suggest using 1-2 kayaking or touring outfits, and 1-2 camp outfits that you will reuse throughout the trip. You are welcome to bring extra clothing for before or after your trip.

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 
• One large-mouth water bottle, 1 liter or larger
• Camp 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)
• Back up battery pack for electronic devices
• Waterproof camera or valuables 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 spillable personal items
• Books or E-reader, pen and notepad, headphones, etc. If you want to listen to music, please do it privately with earbuds or headphones

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 
• 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 squeeze 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.
