There is only a single place in the entire world where both the migrating humpback whales from the Arctic waters and migrating humpback whales from the Antarctic waters go to reproduce and raise their calves. That very special place is in the tropical waters just off the southern Pacific coast of Costa Rica.

The whales journey across vast oceans, navigating by instinct alone. Costa Rica is their winter home, a place to play, to give birth and to start new generations. Costa Rica's Bahia Ballena (Whale Bay) is one of those very, special places on our planet. The government of Costa Rica designated Marino Ballena National Park to protect this area from commercial fishing, Japanese whaling and other activities harmful to Cetations.

EcoQuest Costa Rica has based our tour boat, Pacific Quest, in the heart of these waters just in the quant little town of Dominical. Forgotten by the crowds, the southern coast of Costa Rica is a remarkable part of the world that is beautiful and still untouched.

When you visit Costa Rica, do not miss an unforgettable Pacific whale watching experience in Bahia Ballena. There is no better way to learn about and see the whales in their natural environment. We guarantee it!
