Year-round biodiversity: When to visit for the best wildlife encounters
Loreto’s marine park offers spectacular wildlife viewing throughout the year, with each season bringing unique biodiversity highlights:
Summer and Autumn: These are the best months for snorkeling and free-diving, thanks to warm water temperatures, excellent visibility, and an abundance of marine life. Guests can witness impressive aggregations such as super pods of common dolphins, rays, massive mobula aggregations, sea turtles, and even encounter odontocete cetaceans like sperm whales, pilot whales, or false killer whales.
Winter: Loreto becomes one of the world’s top destinations for whale watching, hosting remarkable gatherings of blue whales, fin whales, and humpbacks. The region is renowned as the best place on earth to encounter blue whales—the largest animal ever to have existed—as they feed and reproduce here.
Spring: This season marks a transition, with lingering whales still present in the park, the first super pods of dolphins returning, and many seabirds nesting and raising their chicks.
