Whale Shark Tour - We took the whale shark tour and it was a unique experience, from the beginning with the captain and guide everything was very clear, instructions and handling in and out of the water with the entire crew, an experience that we will have to repeat in a future

Great experience - It was amazing to see the whale sharks. Our guide was very knowledgeable and everything was well organized with wetsuits, and masks, and snorkel and fins supplied. We were lucky that there were several whale sharks to see. It was an amazing experience. Our kids aged 11 and 12 both really enjoyed it.

Incredible crew, guide and experience! - This was an amazing experience! They were very organized, professional and friendly. My husband and I booked last minute and feel like we got really lucky to find such an amazing tour. We swam with a 7 meter whale shark for about 30-45 minutes. It was a memory I will Never forget. Paula was our guide and she was 10/10!

Salty Life or San Miguel? - Booked with Salty Life in Baha, ended up going out with San Miguel Tours -- which I believe is separate from Salty Life in Baha, but we were passed on to them at tour time? -- We were on a boat with 9 including my wife and I, and the tour guide and boat captain. We did experience swimming with a whale shark and it was amazing! Loved the experience and definitely recommend! I assume it would have been equally as amazing if we did go out with Salty Life in Baha, but I'm uncertain.

When I went swimming with the whale shark I explained the precautions we had to take to see it the closest - It was an excellent outing, Christian explains in detail about the animals and all the staff are very well trained

Meet the whale shark - An excellent experience! Thanks to the Guide, your attentions and your indications is that we were able to observe how majestic whale sharks are, the largest fish in the world, we also knew their anatomy and their diet with the explanation provided by the Certified Guide. Salty life in Baja provided us with all the equipment and so we could swim alongside them and it was amazing, how big and peaceful it is, and we could also see the respect they have for these huge animals. It’s an experience you can’t miss, meeting the world’s largest fish alongside the best Tourist Trips Team in the area is certainly something you will remember.

Unacceptable - We drove an hour to get to the marina. The guide confirmed time with us. We parked, walked to the marina and then received a text saying that our tour was pushed back 5 hours.
