Whale watching excursions are done by panga, a small motorized Mexican fishing boat. They can hold up to 8 people, including your guide. The Mexican pangeros are local fishermen who have been specially trained to maneuver their boats around the whales. The licensing and restrictions on whale watching help to minimize the impact of humans on the whales.
