Hello, BD friends! Yes, I'm still here! 😊
The end of the 2026 whale season, followed by the arrival of summer, brought on a particularly long bout of social media procrastination...but stay tuned—there's something fun coming this week!
Below is the link to Baja Discovery's 2027 whale watching schedule. As you'll see, multiple trips are already sold out. This is due to a combination of factors: an increase in private groups booking full camps, a substantial waiting list from 2026, and guests whose 2026 trips were canceled because the whales departed the lagoon unusually early. Most of those guests transferred their reservations to 2027, resulting in limited availability even before the schedule was released to the general public.
Small shifts in the gray whale migration are normal, but have been seemingly more pronounced during the ongoing Unusual Mortality Event (UME), making their timing much less predictable. Based on what we observed this past season, we decided to start the 2027 season earlier, to give our guests increased opportunities to experience the whales under these changing conditions.
The staff of Baja Discovery and I hope you will join us in 2027!
