Trip of the Day: Lindblad Expeditions -- Baja California: Among the Great Whales

Perhaps nowhere else on earth can you observe gray whales and dolphins as closely as in Baja California and the Sea of Cortez. Enjoy a close encounter with these magnificent creatures with Lindblad Expeditions.

Lindblad Expeditions: Baja California: Among the Great Whales

This expedition is far from your ordinary whale-watching experience. From a comfortable and intimate 62-guest expedition ship, you’ll explore further in Zodiacs and by snorkeling, swimming, and kayaking the azure waters. Each voyage is led by an expert 6-person Expedition Team including an Undersea Specialist. This leadership will ensure you have the best possible experience on an itinerary crafted to allow for more wildlife encounters. In 2011, learn from many notable guest experts and photographers: National Geographic expert Dr. William Gilly (Jan 22, 29); John Steinbeck scholar Susan Shillinglaw (Jan. 29); National Geographic Fellow Enric Sala (Feb. 5); National Geographic photographer Susan Seubert (Feb. 26, Mar. 5); and National Geographic photographer Flip Nicklin (Mar. 12, 19). (For more on this exhilarating trip, read my article: Baja: Touched by a Whale.)

Baja California: Among the Great Whales: 8 Days/7 Nights; multiple departures from Jan. 22 through March 19; from $4,990.
