North America, Baja California
Wild Baja Escape: The Whales of Magdalena Bay
Experience the best of Baja in a compact time frame at Magdalena Bay. Spend several extraordinary days in the company of majestic gray whales in Mexico’s Bahía Magdalena, one of the best places in the world to witness interactions between gray whale mothers and their curious calves, who often approach Lindblad’s small boats. Plus, kayak through mangrove forests and hike desert islands, watch pelicans and ospreys soar overhead, and soak up the sun on some of the Pacific’s most pristine beaches. You’ll learn about desert ecosystems, seabird migrations, and whale behavior from experienced naturalist guides.
• Live among gigantic gray whale mothers and their calves in the nursery waters of Bahía Magdalena. See them from the ship and local pangas, delighting in up-close encounters
• Kayak and paddleboard stunning mangroves, or beachcomb along endless beaches
• Explore diverse landscapes; fat-tire bike along desert island terrain
• Scan the skies for bird species, from diving pelicans to magnificent frigatebirds

Upon arrival in Loreto, transfer to San Carlos and
embark National Geographic Sea Bird. Tonight
we’ll anchor off the coast of Isla Santa Margarita.
(D)
Awake in Bahía Almejas, the southernmost part of
the bay. We’ll make a special stop to view a large
frigatebird colony on Isla Santa Margarita before
heading out on our first whale-watching trip of the
voyage. The whales in Bahía Almejas tend to be
very active and seemingly oblivious to our
presence. As we explore this bay and the Rehusa
Channel via local panga, our team will do
whatever it takes to provide you with memorable
and meaningful experiences. During lunch, we’ll
sail toward Isla Magdalena to explore the evershifting sand dunes on a cross-island walk to one
of the most pristine beaches in the Pacific. Take a
dip or tally the treasure found on what we
affectionately call “sand dollar beach.” (B,L,D)
Spend the morning transiting the scenic winding
Hull Canal. Within its narrow channels, bordered
by mangroves and sand dunes and filled with
abundant wildlife, we’ll hang out on deck with our
keen-eyed naturalists to spot species and hear
expert commentary. Weather permitting, we’ll
explore the vast mangrove system via kayak and
Zodiac. Bird-watching here can be excellent.
Among the species we might see are diving
pelicans, wheeling cormorants, terns, great blue
herons, ibis, whimbrels, and willets. Bird watching
can be excellent here with abundant seabirds in
action and shorebirds patrolling the beaches as
they fatten up and prepare for long journeys to
Arctic breeding grounds. This afternoon, we’ll
head out to explore the whale-rich waters of Boca
de Soledad. (B,L,D)
Each winter, during their long migration, gray
whales travel south from their Arctic feeding
grounds to breed and give birth to their calves in
these sheltered waters, often called "Grand
Central" for California gray whales. We'll spend
two full days observing and, with luck, intereacting
with these majestic creatures. Together with savvy
local fishermen we’ve known for years, we’ll
venture out in expedition landing craft to view the
numerous mother-calf pairs that thrive in this
region. We’ll also have an opportunity to explore
the beaches, and if you’re feeling up to it, grab one
of our fat-tire bikes to roam the seemingly endless
beaches. (B,L,D)
After breakfast, disembark our ship and transfer to
Loreto’s city center. Choose to visit the first
mission in Baja California, as well as the nearby
museum, to learn more about what makes this
town so special. Enjoy free time to explore the
quaint shops and vibrant side streets. After lunch,
transfer to Loreto Airport for flights home. (B,L)

Twin Expedition ships, National Geographic Sea Bird & Sea Lion, can reach places inaccessible to larger ships due to their small size, yet each can comfortably accommodate 62 guests. The feeling, is often compared to that of a large private yacht, with everyone integral to the adventure. Accessibility means freedom. Our captains have decades of sailing experience in the regions we explore. They know when and where to navigate so that you feel the places we visit are all ours.
Full interior renovations have been completed on these twin 62-guest ships, National Geographic Sea Lion and National Geographic Sea Bird. The extensive renovation to guest cabins, the lounge and bar, dining room, public areas and spa has transformed the ships to provide the ultimate in expedition hospitality and comfort. Nothing has been left untouched, from the sleekly framed wall photos, to the fresh paint, and new carpets throughout the ships.
- The lounge and bar have been completely redesigned and reconfigured to provide an open, enhanced environment with additional seating and better flow. The modern design features new tables and chairs, upholstery of settees, overhead ceiling panels, and LED dimmable lighting. The lounge also hosts a new food & beverage area, library, and Global Market.
- The dining room’s upgrade features all new tables, chairs, ceiling panels, and LED dimmable lighting. The wine bar has been replaced and features a display showcasing selections from the regions explored.
- Every cabin has been completely redone and all furnishings have been replaced. Modern aged cherry bed boxes, faux leather headboards, Lindblad signature bed linens, new windows, lighting, and additional USB outlets provide a dramatic makeover for a relaxing guest experience. Bathrooms now feature new shower doors and all new hardware.
- Exterior renovations include new deck furniture and outdoor awning.
