BAJA WHALE & RAY EXPEDITION

Every year, the Sea of Cortez comes alive with one of the ocean’s most spectacular wildlife events. From mobula rays and orcas to blue and humpback whales, dolphins, and sea lions, this region offers unforgettable encounters in one of the world’s most biodiverse marine environments.

Nomad Diving’s exclusive small-group trips are designed for divers, snorkelers, and ocean enthusiasts who want a safe, respectful, and immersive experience. Each expedition includes professional underwater and aerial photography, capturing every magical moment.

About the Migration & Wildlife

The mobula rays migrate through the Sea of Cortez during the warmer months, often forming massive schools that leap from the water or glide just beneath the surface. Alongside them, orcas, humpback whales, blue whales, dolphins, and sea lions make each day at sea a rare opportunity to witness the natural rhythm of the ocean.
