Whale watch
March
Pros: Up front and personnel with whales. Staff and naturalists so knowledgeable and extremely helpful.
Cons: Last day extremely long, having to put suitcases out at 4am, 3 hour bus ride, all prior to leaving Mexico by 10:30 am. However the ship provided us with snack , snack bag and lunch once we arrived at airport.
Recommended: Yes
