Baja Ecotours Ecolodge At San Ignacio Lagoon

Few wildlife experiences in the world can compare when it comes to San Ignacio Lagoon. In fact, for up close whale watching, there is no place like it on the planet. Baja Ecotours invites you to join us at our remote, solar & wind powered Ecolodge at San Ignacio Lagoon where man and leviathan have formed a unique and peaceful relationship. Dubbed as “ballenas amistosas” (Spanish for “friendly whales”) by local fishermen because of their curious and gentle nature, these gentle giants often approach our skiffs to interact with us. These friendly Gray Whales actually seek out human interaction. Often, proud mothers with newborn calves will approach our skiffs to present them to us while encouraging us to scratch their backs and baleen as they lounge around our skiffs. There is no place like San Ignacio Lagoon and Gray whales have been migrating to these protected sheltered waters for hundreds of centuries.
