Perhaps nowhere else on earth can you observe gray whales and dolphins as closely as in Baja California on our Sea of Cortez cruise. But this Baja California expedition cruise is far from your ordinary whale watching Baja cruise. With over 20 years exploring Baja California, we have the most experience revealing the remarkable magic of “Mexico’s Galapagos.” From our comfortable and intimate 62-guest expedition Baja cruise ship, you’ll explore further in Zodiacs and by kayaking the azure waters. Join an expert Expedition Team of Naturalists and an Undersea Specialist. Their leadership will ensure you have the best possible adventure travel experience in Baja California and beyond.
Join us where the desert meets the sea. And where every winter we help turn curious vacation-goers into lifelong explorers.

See More with Flexible Itineraries
Our small ship expedition cruises explore both the pacific side of Baja California and the Sea of Cortez. We can linger on the pacific side, known for its quiet lagoons that act as a safe nursery for gray whale calves. Or we’ll change course to follow dolphins frolicking in the Sea of Cortez. And you won’t miss any of the action by exploring on flexible itineraries.
A Note on Conservation
Working with Mexican and international partners, we helped start the Gulf of California Conservation Fund (GCCF). Together with our guests and international partners, LEX has contributed more than $1.64 million (as of October 2008) to support urgent projects in the Gulf of California. Projects directly benefiting include sea lion disentanglement, the restoration of Santa Catalina Island, and radar surveillance of illegal fishing in the Bahia Loreto Marine Reserve.
