ABOUT WHALE WATCH CABO
Whale Watch Cabo started out with a single biologist named Janneke Louws who saw that Whale watching tours in Cabo San Lucas could be arranged to offer visitors a more sustainable, educational and responsible way to encounter Whales. So Janneke founded Whale Watch Cabo to offer visitors the opportunity to take part in fun, informative and respectful Whale watching tours. Today Whale Watch Cabo is still the only dedicated whale watching company in Cabo San Lucas. We focus on small group tours dedicated to non-invasive Whale watching and that support Whale conservation and research. We have grown to become the leader in educational, sustainable and responsible Whale watching operations here in Cabo San Lucas.
Our efforts now include our Cabo San Lucas Whale watching tours, Gray Whale trips to the world-famous Magdalena Bay, Cetacean research projects here in Los Cabos and research throughout Mexico & internationally as members of several Cetacean conservation and advocacy organizations. Whale Watch Cabo and its staff of Naturalists & Ocean advocates strive to support Ocean education, help to increase scientific understanding of Cetaceans & the challenges they face, improve Whale watching standards both locally & internationally and participate in Ocean conservation.
OUR MISSION STATEMENT
To provide guests with fun, personal and educational Whale watching tours in Cabo San Lucas while supporting Whale conservation locally through research, education, and public awareness.
