One of the most spectacular winter inhabitants of San Blas<\/strong>, is the great humpback whale<\/strong>, which astonishes both children and adults, with their incredible jumps and adorable pups. Have you seen them?<\/p>\n

The scientific name of this huge buddy is Megaptera novaeangliae<\/strong><\/em>, in its adult life can be up to 16 meters long and weigh 36 tons. A real giant!<\/p>\n

As many know, the humpback whale chooses the warm waters of the Sea of Cortez<\/strong> and the Mexican Pacific<\/strong> to breed and give birth, being one of the most popular attractions among visitors of the Riviera Nayarit.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Since it is an acrobat<\/em> by nature, jumping over the sea waters and marveling the witnesses seem to give it a special joy, making it an excellent artist that will leave you speechless with its performance<\/em>, all this in their natural habitat without having to live in captivity.<\/p>\n

In San Blas<\/strong>, there are several tour operators offering whale watching<\/strong>, if you visit Isabel Island<\/strong> or Isla del Rey<\/strong>, you will most likely find one on the way, or even with a little luck, you will find a mother and her little one.<\/p>\n

In addition to the impressive cetacean, you can observe in the surroundings of this historic port, some other species such as whale shark<\/strong>, sea turtle<\/strong>, blue-footed booby bird<\/strong>, magnificent frigate<\/strong> and an endless number of curious birds<\/strong>, that is why San Blas is a fantastic place to do ecotourism<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Do not remain without witnessing this natural wonder in its maximum splendor, from the month of November<\/strong> until the end of March<\/strong>. We are sure that you will never forget this experience!<\/p>\n
