Details
To see Humpback Whales, FREE IN NATURE, in PERSON, is an experience BEYOND DESCRIPTION!
The MASSIVE, MAJESTIC MAMMALS that visit the bay yearly, are both WELCOMED and HIGHLY PROTECTED by Colombia, thru EDUCATION to visitors, to this ISOLATED, PRISTINE, (there are no roads in) ECODESTINATION.
One morning in MEDELLÍN, picked up by your PROFESSIONAL DRIVER and whisked away to MEDELLÍN’S LOCAL AIRPORT, where after a quick flight of under an hour, has you landing on the PACIFIC COAST OF COLOMBIA, and PURE JUNGLE.
A huge relief has you entering your AIR CONDITIONED Hotel room only minutes after landing as it is literally only 20M from the AIRPORT!
Over the next 2 DAYS, your LEGALLY, LICENSED, (highly respectful, and responsible WHALE WATCHING) CAPTAIN, will take you out in the MASSIVE BAY, (one day N. and one day S.), in search of (and you WILL FIND), the MAJESTIC BEASTS, as well as different HIDDEN BEACHES, THERMAL SPRINGS and DESTINATIONS, each a PARADISE on their own!
