Witness Magnificent Humpback Whales During Their Annual Migration Through The Warm Banderas Bay Waters
Every year the majestic humpback whales migrate to the warm waters of Banderas Bay to give birth and nurture their young before returning north. This specialized marine excursion provides a unique opportunity to observe these gentle giants in their natural habitat from the comfort of a custom boat. Guests are invited to witness these incredible creatures up close while learning about their complex life cycles and behaviors from an expert onboard marine biologist.
The adventure begins at the marina where the vessel sets out across the bay in search of whale activity. The crew maintains constant communication with other local boats to track surfacing patterns and migratory trails. Equipped with advanced hydrophones the boat allows passengers to listen to the hauntingly beautiful songs of the whales beneath the surface. This immersive acoustic experience adds a profound layer of connection to the observation of these massive marine mammals in the wild.
Safety and environmental responsibility remain the top priorities throughout the entire journey. The tour follows strict protection guidelines to ensure that the whales are never disturbed or harassed during their stay in the bay. By maintaining a respectful distance the crew provides a safe viewing environment that allows guests to appreciate the sheer scale and grace of the whales without interfering with their natural routines. This approach ensures a sustainable and ethical wildlife encounter.
Concluding the excursion provides a humbling perspective on the importance of marine conservation and the delicate balance of our oceans. Participants leave with a deeper understanding of the challenges these animals face and the efforts required to protect their future. Whether you are a photography enthusiast or a nature lover this experience offers an unforgettable look at one of nature's most spectacular displays. It is truly a highlight for anyone visiting the beautiful Mexican coastline.

Customer Reviews
Absolutely loved it! Did the 90 minute trip and it was just brilliant! Saw lots of dolphins and a seal basking on the rocks, was 90 minutes of pure happiness. The guides were so lovely and gave lots of interesting information about the area, history and wildlife. Can’t recommend highly enough. Such amazing value for Money. Thank you SeaMor for a great experience
An amazing experience with SeaMor – a small, family-run company with a big heart. The guide spoke with immense passion and knowledge about the bay and local wildlife, making the trip truly fascinating. They did everything possible to ensure we saw as much as possible – and we were lucky enough to see seals and dolphins! We drove almost two hours to this attraction, and it was absolutely worth it. A lovely gift shop and fair prices. I highly recommend this company and this wonderful attraction in beautiful New Quay!
I will absolutely be going on a trip again. I went on the sunset dolphin spotting cruise on 12th August 2025. I went with a friend and my old dog. Perfect amount of people on the boat so everyone had a view. Almost immediately we spotted dolphins, many very close to the boat. We saw a lot on our trip and it was stunning to see them playing in their natural habitat. Obviously, they are wild animals so you are not guaranteed to see them despite many residing in the bay. The sunset was also amazing. It was over the harbour when we left & over the sea throughout the trip. It's an old pier so uneven in places so those with mobility problems (myself to some degree) need to take care, but the company are happy to assist and recommend the best trip for access according to the tide. That said the steps at the end of the pier are wide and with a rail and no big step onto the boat so fairly easy to navigate. I couldn't really hear the commentary, but I am a bit deaf, but I was happy just taking in the dolphins and the sunset. All the crew on board, docking & in the shop really friendly. I'll look forward to next time.
