Whale Watch & Dive Combo Tour

  • Whale Watch & Diving Combo
  • December to April

Combine Whale Watching with a 2-tank dive! From December 15 to April 15 the humpback whale migration returns in full swing in Cabo San Lucas. The most acrobatic whale of the species, the humpback whale, makes their way to warmer waters for mating and to birth their young. In the height of the season, they are seen almost daily on surface intervals between dives and we regularly hear males singing for a mate under the water!

Tour Outlines

We begin the day nice and early with a 6.30 AM check-in. We like to get to the boat by 7.15 and set sail at 7.30 AM. This means we beat the crowds to enjoy a sun rise whale watching tour. Sometimes, the whales are still sleepy and we opt to have an early bird dive and a longer whale watching surface interval. You dive guides will select 2 dive spots according to comfort, safety and experience. If we get lucky enough to have a whale swim by a dive site - we will jump in! The tour is finished around 12.30 PM.

Safe and excited about what I learned

Dee is a consummate professional. She has your safety at the highest point but fun is a very close second. I did a two tank dive and then a one tank dive the second day. Each dive was better than the last.…

Superb Service with Cabo Private Guide

Great experience with Cabo Private Guide (from initial inquiries, through the booking process, during the dives and after). Laura was quick to respond to my many emails – and I asked a lot, a lot of questions. I booked a 3-tank dive…

Whale watching and scuba diving tour in Cabo

The humpback whale migration his an amazing spectacle of nature right on our dive site doorstep, we often get asked if it’s possible to dive with them. Unfortunately this is a big no for a plethora of ocean conservation and dive safety reasons. But it got us thinking… How can we create a tour that shows our guests the amazing whale migration and encompass diving on the reef? The answer is… this Whale and Dive Combo tour! This one is for the early birds and UNIQUE only to Cabo Private Guide.

What is it?

Join us for a light brunch of tea, coffee and croissants (or dietary variation) and venture out to find whales bright and early before everyone else steps on a whale watching tour. We will see whale activity about 80% of the time. After whale-watching, your dive guide will be able to select an area of the bay or corridor to make a 2 tank certified dive. This would be based on best conditions and certified diver level. But, we may even be lucky enough to select a dive site where whales are passing by, increasing possibilities of a respectful underwater chance encounter!

Schedule and Timings

Check-in 6.30am, finish 12.30.

Approx 5 hours on the water. You may decide with your guide that you prefer to scuba dive first at the reef and escape the dive crowd – however this can make the whale safari portion feel a little chilly!

What’s included

  • Shared guide up to 4 people (similar experience level when possible)\
  • light breakfast of burritos or sandwiches, fruit and cereal bars
  • Coffee or Tea (based on daily availability)
  • Water
  • Tanks and Weights
  • Extra warm blankets!

What to bring

Warm, waterproof clothes! It’s COLD first thing in the morning and you want to be warm on your dive. So bring a warm boat coat, even a beanie! We will keep you warm with hot drinks too! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwMKYTQlMgc

Humpback whales season and sighting in Cabo San Lucas

The best months for whale watching in Cabo San Lucas are Late December, January and Febuary. Early and late in the season there may be fewer whale sightings. We do not guarantee whale sightings or offer refunds if we don’t see any. They are arguably more active in the middle of the day. But when you have made one dive it’s very cold to go and see them when you are wet. When we get them at sunrise, with no other boats around it’s a very special encounter so we believe it’s worth the trade off. If we haven’t seen any whales in the morning before scuba diving, we WILL try again in the surface interval.
