Mobula Ray Migration
Sea of Cortez

The best places to witness the Mobula Migration is La Ventana, then followed by La Paz, Cabo San Lucas, and various locations in the Sea of Cortez.
La Ventana is the area with the most sightings of mobula rays in the last few years, offering prime viewing opportunities both from boats and, in some cases, from the shore.

The peak time to experience the Mobula Migration in Baja is from late April to early July. With peak numbers mid to May to early June.
During these months, the mobulas can be seen leaping out of the water in large numbers, creating an incredible spectacle. Visibility is at its best from June onwards

Yes, you can swim or snorkel with the mobula rays during their migration, always respecting their behaviour and having ethical interactions with them. Our expert guide will teach you about them, making it more of an educational experience, and will show you best practices following our ethos of respectful interactions.

Yes, it is very safe to swim with mobula rays. They are not aggressive and are more likely to be curious or shy around humans. However, as with all wildlife encounters, it’s important to maintain a respectful distance and follow the guidelines provided by our expert guide.

Mobula Migration tours typically last 6 hours for day tours and 8-10 hours for expeditions. Our tours and expeditions usually involve boat trips to areas where the mobula rays are most active, trying to avoid the crowds when possible, which sometimes means going further than other operators.

In addition to mobula rays, you might also encounter dolphins, sea lions, various species of fish, sharks, various species of whales/cetaceans, occasionally orcas and many surprises!! The Sea of Cortez is known for its rich biodiversity, so there's always a chance to see something amazing.

That depends. The Mobulas are shy animals that get spooked easily when other animals (or humans) are in the water with them. It's very common that the Mobulas will swim to deeper waters and disappear if they feel threatened, therefore, our expert guide will always assess the behavior of the mobulas before allowing freediving with them. If after assessing the situation, the mobulas feel comfortable with our presence and the guide decides it's possible to do some dives, they will brief you on the correct practices. If you don't follow the instructions and the mobulas feel threatened by you, we will have to stop freediving and continue only snorkeling.

Yes, mostly. Responsible tour operators like us adhere to eco-friendly practices to minimize the impact on the mobula rays and their environment. This includes limiting the number of boats and snorkelers, maintaining safe distances, and ensuring that no one touches or disturbs the rays.
Unfortunately not all the operators follow these practices, that's why we always encourage travelers to make responsible decisions when it comes to picking an operator for any ocean activities that involve wildlife.

Yes, our tours adhere to strict environmental guidelines to minimize our impact on the marine ecosystem. We prioritize sustainable practices to ensure that the Mobula Migration season can be enjoyed for years to come.

Yes, private tours are available during our day trips, and our expeditions for those who prefer a more personalized experience. Private tours offer more flexibility and the opportunity to enjoy the migration at your own pace, often with more intimate and exclusive encounters. However, due to the high demand for the mobula season, this may be subject to availability. If this is something you are interested in, we recommend you to book months in advance.
