Meet Friendly Baja Whales On Line: Video + Stills

[intrepidberkeleyexplorer]

My film "The Whale's Tale" presents the friendly gray whales at the San Ignacio Lagoon in Baja California, Mexico. The whales come so close people touch them. This video can be seen on the web, if you have a high speed internet connection. It’s less than 15 minutes long.

This is a free, non-commercial, streaming video on the Windows Media Player. No ads and no strings attached. I still sell absolutely nothing.

There are over 30 of my other amateur travel videos on-line covering all seven continents. Visit Italy, Argentina & Brazil, England, Antarctica, Peru, Hawaii, China, Russia, Mayan Pyramids, American National Parks, Greece, or Turkey; see buffalo, penguins, or polar bears.

The planet is yours, including my Home Page giant galaxy of still pictures at:

Magdalena Bay is one of the best places to whale watch in the Baja area. And there are kayaking tours and boat tours that allow you to get out pretty close to them. It's on the Pacific side but is sheltered by low barrier islands and is the winter breeding grounds of the gray whale. Pretty amazing to see these gentle creatures up close.

Some of the outfitters offer trips that include children. There are thousands of gray whales that overwinter in the Baja area from about January to April. And i believe that tour operators take people out from the more touristy areas around Cabo San Lucas at that time.
