When are the whale sharks in La Paz?
One of the questions we get most often is: when are the whale sharks in La Paz? Well, given that it’s one of our favorite times of year, we are happy to answer! Whale shark season in the La Paz area is November through April. Here you can see one of our Baja whale shark experiences during November:
Whale shark tours are, by far, one of the favorite tours to give at our resort. We often tie these excursions in with gray whale watching, as well as learning to kite board for some of our clients. Not only do our guests enjoy watching whale sharks, but some even enjoy getting in the water with them! We never touch whale sharks, but swimming with them as they glide gracefully through the water is an absolute delight.
Let us set up a full trip package for you, including whale sharks, gray whales, and other activities akin to our Baja paradise during the fall and winter months. It’s a great way to escape the winter cold, and enjoy cost-effective, educational, and life-changing experiences!

Hello, my husband and I would like to visit Baja California Sur in order to see and swim with whale sharks. We heard that the area where whale sharks congregate was closed this year because of the weather conditions and the lack of plancton. But we just received news that it reopened! As we are coming all the way from France, we want to make sure this is the right season (Isn’t the Official season from October to April?)
Please can you advise us?
Best regards

Hi Tina, thanks for your message! Whale sharks are now closed in La Paz for the season, but please keep in touch this fall and we will be able to book a trip for you. Also, we have some great dive trips happening now through late summer, and we would be happy to host you! Thanks, PV Team
