Every year between January and April, Gray Whales migrate to their breeding and birthing grounds at multiple warm water lagoons in Baja California Sur. There are groups such as Baja Expeditions that will take you out in boats to see and interact with the whales.
A California gray whale pops its head out of the water at Laguna San Ignacio in Baja California, Thrill seekers who marvel up close at whales during Northern California whale watching season are finding out simple watching pales in comparison to what you can witness 1,000 miles south of the Bay Area.
Those who have visited say there’s simply no place on earth quite like Laguna San Ignacio, in Mexico’s southern Baja Peninsula. There are California gray whales there this time of year, thousands of them every winter, migrating to their breeding and birthing grounds.
At this special lagoon, the whales are also watching the people who are watching them. If they like you, they may even let you touch them and allow you to play with their new born calf's. There are 45 ft. whales that actually allow people to touch and even kiss them.
“You can put your arms around the head of a full grown gray whale, you can’t do that anywhere else that I know of. It really is a touching experience to do this.
