Southern Right Whales cresting just off the coast!
The whales are back! The Southern Right Whales just arrived to the coast of the Peninsula Valdes in Argentina, as they do every year to give birth and mate. Now through November is the ideal time to visit.
Campsites are normally in places were you can observe the Right whales from the shore
We can arrange for active and easy wildlife tours on the Peninsula, but what we love the most are the amazing kayak trips! Imagine camping out on a pristine beach with whales just off shore… on a kayak expedition you and your group of no more than 8 people will have this area practically to yourselves! You’ll also kayak in close proximity to whales and sea lions.

This trip is a wilderness adventure for recreational sea kayakers, ideal for experienced kayakers but also fine for beginners with a sense of adventure and comfort on open water. The itinerary features days on pristine waters and nights under the Southern Cross. As you paddle, huge mammals rise out in the Gulf of San Jose and playful seals bark and slide into the water. Whether focusing the day on bird watching, visiting archeological sites along the coast, enjoying spectacular sunsets or listening to the sounds of the Southern Right Whale, kayaking at Peninsula Valdes is all about fun and adventure.
