Península Valdés is one of the fewest places where you can watch this species in its natural environment. The Eubalaena australis is a mammal adapted to the marine environment in which it lives. Its body is curved and has no dorsal fin. The adult females are 13m long and the adult males are slightly smaller. Adult whales can weigh 30 or 40 tons.
Whales have no teeth which have been replaced by thick bristles or whalebones…
Before boarding, you will be provided with an impermeable and a life jacket. Once on board, we’re going to enter into the Gulf Nuevo waters, in search of the Southern Right Whale.
While seeking, a highly specialized guide will tell you about the characteristics and habits of this colossus.
Then, just be enjoying the appearance of the whales, their movements, the air expulsion from their lungs, the jumps: a natural and improvised show that will make you feel the life at sea.
