Dancing with Giants: Whale Season Beckons in Costa Rica
Hello to all our cherished travel enthusiasts!
As your trusted guide to the remarkable corners of Costa Rica, we at CRS Tours are thrilled to herald the arrival of one of the most spectacular times of the year: the whale season in Costa Rica.
Each year, starting mid-July until the end of October, Costa Rica becomes a magnificent playground for the humpback whales, the largest animals to have ever lived. These gentle leviathans grace our warm tropical waters with their awe-inspiring presence, a spectacle that leaves all who witness it absolutely spellbound.
The Majestic Migration
Humpback whales, our star guests of the season, undertake one of the longest whale migrations of any mammal on Earth. These creatures travel an astounding 5,000 miles, journeying from both the Antarctic and the Arctic to rendezvous in the tranquil waters of Costa Rica.
As they break the surface of the water and launch their colossal bodies into the air in spectacular breaches, they remind us of their mysterious, underwater world. Their beautiful and intricate songs, which can be heard for miles underwater, are like nothing else in nature.
Best Places to Whale-Watch
Costa Rica’s Pacific Coast, with its abundant marine life, serves as the primary stage for these stunning displays. Marino Ballena National Park, renowned for its iconic “whale’s tail” sandbar, is undoubtedly one of the best spots to watch the Humpback whales in Costa Rica.
Guanacaste’s clear blue waters offer more opportunities for spotting whales, and Drake Bay in the Osa Peninsula provides not only whale-watching chances but also an experience steeped in biodiversity that few places on Earth can match.
Our Responsibility
While we revel in the beauty of these magnificent creatures, it is essential to remember our responsibility. As visitors in their world, we must prioritize their safety and comfort. All our tours adhere to responsible whale-watching guidelines, keeping a respectful distance, and ensuring we do not disrupt their natural behavior.
