In 1981, Lindblad Expeditions began bringing travelers to the rich waters of Baja California, a destination famously described by Jacques Cousteau as "the world's aquarium." Forty-five years later, National Geographic-Lindblad Expeditions remains virtually alone in expedition cruising here, continually discovering new ways to explore this remarkable region.
Enter the birthing lagoons of California gray whales to observe mother-calf pairs up close. Explore the biodiverse Gulf of California, home to desert isles and over a third of the world’s marine mammal species, including dolphins, sea lions, flying mobula rays, and up to six species of whales. This winter, immerse yourself in a marine wonderland that's surprisingly close to home.
