Book your week with the orcas.
Experience the world's aquarium, where the ocean comes to life. Pick your base, pick your week, and we'll take care of the rest.
Three steps to your week with the orcas
Choose your base
Both trips run the same expedition. The difference is where you sleep: Casa Ola, a private beach house for 5 guests, or Palacio, luxury beach apartments for 6 guests.
Pick your week
Trips run Saturday to Saturday, May through August 2027. Each accommodation page shows live availability for every departure. Some weeks are already full.
Reserve your spot
Prices are per person, based on two people sharing a room. Contact us to hold your week, or ask about taking a whole boat as a private group.
Two homes, one extraordinary week
Both bases run the same six days at sea with the same expert guides. The difference is where you stay and the size of your group: five guests at Casa Ola, six at Palacio.
Casa Ola
A luxury beachfront house all to your group: private pool, private gym, air conditioning in every room, and ocean views from your doorstep. The most intimate way to do this trip, with just five guests on the boat.
Palacio
Luxury apartments steps from the water, with a shared pool and hot tub, air conditioning throughout, and ocean views. Six guests per boat for an intimate, immersive week.
Seven days, at a glance
Fly into San José del Cabo (SJD), transfer to La Ventana, settle into your beachfront accommodation, then meet your guides for a briefing on the week ahead.
Out with the sunrise, guided by daily scout reports. We swim with orcas when we find them, with mobula rays and whatever else the Sea of Cortez sends between. If we're on orcas, we stay out.
Transfer back to San José del Cabo (SJD) and fly home with footage nobody will believe.

Will you definitely swim with orcas?
No operator can honestly promise that, and we won't. These are wild animals in a wild ocean. What we offer instead is the best odds available anywhere: a team that does nothing but this, scouts covering hundreds of square miles daily, boats with the range to reach distant sightings, and six full days to make it happen.
For a 95% chance of swimming with orcas, book two weeks in a row.
2027 weeks are filling
Five of Casa Ola's early-season weeks are already fully booked. If you have a week in mind, now is the time to hold it.
