The experience
Humpback whales on the Costa Ballena
The Costa Ballena (Whale Coast) owes its name to the silhouette of Uvita's beach, which resembles a whale's tail, and to the humpback whales that visit these waters at certain times of the year. The whale watching tour is done by boat, accompanied by experienced local guides and captains.
Exact season dates, tour duration and sea conditions may vary. All specific information about schedules, prices and availability is confirmed directly with the operator before booking.
What the experience includes
- Boat departure from the Uvita / Costa Ballena area.
- Accompaniment by local guides.
- Responsible observation, respecting the distance and behavior of the whales.
- Option to combine with snorkeling or beach, depending on the operator.
Responsible observation
We work with operators who follow good responsible tourism practices: keeping a prudent distance, avoiding routes that stress the animals and prioritizing the area's marine conservation.
