Was an incredible trip!... - Was an incredible trip! We saw whales, turtles and got into a pod of dolphins with over 200 dolphins! Very magical! The guide was also very concerned about the animals making sure we didn’t stay too long and stress the animals out, even expressing we were leaving from the whales to make sure they were not stressed. We were picked up from our hotel by a taxi from the company and we were able to stay after the trip at the beach and hang out taking our own taxi back at the end of the day.

It's not guaranteed that... - It's not guaranteed that you will see whales and dolphins, but thanks to our captain, we found some humpback whales, and a pod of dolphins! Great adventure. I recommend doing this in the morning before the wind kicks up.

Skilled guide and incredible marine life tour - We took the early 7 am boat trip, which was nice seeing the sunrise. The guide on the boat was very good and spoke clear English. We were able to see 2 humpback whales early on in the trip and a couple more on our way back. They kept their distance from the whales and shut the motor off so as not to disturb them. We also saw a couple sightings of turtles and came on a large pod of dolphins. All in all it was a very successful trip and a beautiful day. I also liked that there were only 8-9 of us on the boat. I would recommend Omar to anyone visiting Puerto Escondido.

AMAZING! - Absolutely incredible. We were in the middle of many pods of dolphins, saw a family of humpback whales, a manta ray and a couple cute turtles. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly and took care of the group. This was a highlight of our entire trip to Mexico.

Great experience with very skilled crew - Great experience, the crew took care to not overcrowd the sea life and took us to more secluded spots. We saw so many dolphins, as well as whales and turtles - it was an amazing experience and one of my favourite things I’ve done in Mexico.

best day ever - My wife and i were excited to go out and hopeful that we would see some whales. This excursion went far beyond our expectations. It started slow but sailing by the coast was a beautiful way ti start the day. we started out looking for whales but the activity was slow. we did however see sea turtles and rays. after that Johnny and Marco took us out to see dolphins. We ended up in yhe middle of a 1000 + pod of spinner dolphins. the experience and videos were amazing. After spendeng some good time witht the dolphins we started back in. It was not looking hopefule for the whales but just when we thought we would have to try again Johny spotted a water spout. we ended up seeing three humpback whales. we saw everything we set out to see, and Johny and Marco were bery knolegable as well as super friendly and an all around joy to be around. i would recomend this charter to anyone looking for a once in a lifetime experience.

Amazing trip with dolphins and whales!! - Really great trip- we saw tons of dolphins, a whale and turtles. The captain was great - very friendly and added an extra 30 mins so we could hang out with the whale longer. Everyone had a great time, easy to coordinate, thank you! Highly recommend.

Fun! - Just book this tour, it’s a small tour so it books up fast,Alex is amazing guide. We seen whales,dolphins,turtles, so much fun. It didn’t feel like he was doing a job,it felt like he loved every second of it with us,he was as excited as we were.Pick up is from certain hotels so pay attention to that,also you’re on your own to get back to your hotel,but there’s taxis everywhere and they’re fairly cheap. Also the beach you leave from has a bunch of little shops restaurants, and is one of the best swimming beaches around here. My pictures aren’t great because I was too busy watching to take a lot of pictures.
