Whale Watching at Rancho El Gaspareño

Some of the finest shore based whate watching can be found in front of Rancho El Gaspareño. Watching whales swim and frolic very close to shore and in large numbers, sometimes 20 and more. There are several local tour guides that provide whale watching tours and some mention Punto El Gasparaneo as there destination, the best whale watching on the coast. Imagine the interest you could create if you had some type of restaurant and viewing platform, which could cater to groups looking for this very unique experience. Maybe with a Hotel as well. As referenced previously, there is no other location on the Pacific Coast, located from Cabo San Lucas to Todos Santos along Highway 19 the main road, that is as viewable, has the closest proximity and accessibility to the beach as does Rancho El Gaspareño!

Did You Know?
The humpback whale is one of the rorquals, a family that also includes the blue whale, fin whale, Bryde's whale, sei whale, and minke whale.  Rorquals have two characteristics in common: dorsal fins on their backs, and ventral pleats running from the tip of the lower jaw back to the belly area.  The shape and color pattern on the humpback whale's dorsal fin and flukes (tail) are as individual in each animal as are fingerprints in humans.
