Whale-Watching Adventure in Machalilla National Park
At a time that suits you best, we will gather at the Piedra del Mar hotel located in Puerto Lopez. After that, we’ll proceed to the port, where we will embark on our boat for an unforgettable whale-watching experience!
Our voyage will take us through the serene waters of Machalilla National Park. This remarkable protected region is home to the only coral reefs in Ecuador. Moreover, it serves as a prime location for whales to mate, give birth, and nurture their calves.
Throughout the tour, we may encounter pods of whales and witness males engaging in courtship displays. If we are fortunate, some inquisitive whales might even swim close to our vessel!
While onboard, the crew will share fascinating insights about these majestic cetaceans. Following our whale sightings, we will visit a designated area where you can swim or snorkel in the refreshing waters!
After an enriching three-hour adventure, we will conclude our whale-watching tour by returning to our original meeting point in Puerto Lopez.
