Though not as popular as the other Mexican cities, Guadalajaras beaches provide visitors with sunshine and fine white sand. You will surely have a wonderful time exploring everything that Guadalajara has to offer.
Wonder at the Whales of Mexico
How can one describe the breathtaking moment when the whales come out of the waters and the mere sight of these gray marine mammals leaves you breathless with wonder?Gray whales migrate annually every fall from the cold waters of Northern Bering to the Sea of Cortez to give birth and spend winter months in the warm waters of the Pacific that are rich with food. The best place in Mexico to watch these huge but gentle whales with their calves is Magdalena Bay just off the coast of Los Cabos. The best place to go to is Los Cabos than any other place in Baja or even the famous San Ignacio as there is a better chance of sighting the whales there especially during the last week of December to the last week of March. Whale watching tours make sure strict rules and guidelines are followed in order to ensure that the whales are not harmed. Be a part of this tradition and include this memorable activity in your Mexico vacations itinerary.
