Frequently Asked Questions

The humpback whale migration is an amazing spectacle of nature right on our dive site doorstep, we often get asked if it’s possible to dive with them.

Unfortunately swimming with a whale 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.

Humpback whales season and sighting in Cabo San Lucas

We will see whale activity about 80% of the time.

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.

  • Breakfast: Select ham/cheese croissants, mini muffins (v) or fruit and gluten free cereal bar
  • Coffee or Tea (based on daily availability)
  • Water
  • Tanks and Weights
  • Extra warm blankets!

Shared guide for up to 4 people on an 28ft panga boat with shade

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!

Check-in 6.30am , finish 12.30.

  • 2 hours whale watching
  • 2 dives in Cabo San Lucas

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!

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!

If you need to cancel or reschedule the activity for any reason, you can!

Simply call +52 624 160 9925 or email info@caboprivateguide.com.

  • Free Cancelation
    If it’s more than 2 days before the tour the cancelation is free.

Whale watching and Scuba diving tour in Cabo

We will see whale activity about 80% of the time.

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!

Join us for a light breakfast at sunrise for a whale-watching tour before enjoying two dives in the Cabo San Lucas bay or Corridor area.
