Humpback Whales (December – April)
The most common whales spotted during the winter months are humpback whales. These acrobatic whales are known for their spectacular breaching displays as they propel their 40-ton bodies out of the water. Humpbacks migrate from their feeding grounds near Antarctica to breed and give birth in the warm tropical waters off Costa Rica. Get a front-row view as the males compete for female attention with pec slapping and tail lobbing. Listen for their haunting songs that travel amazing distances underwater.
Orca Whales (Year round)
As humpback whale season ends, orcas start arriving near Playa Flamingo. Also known as killer whales, orcas travel in large family pods hunting for fish, turtles, and even sharks. Their black and white colouring makes them easy to identify. Watch in awe as they demonstrate complex hunting techniques and social behaviours. This is a rare chance to observe orcas in the wild.
Bryde’s Whales (Year round)
The Bryde’s whale is a little-known resident in these waters, staying around Costa Rica all year long. They are smaller than humpbacks at about 45 feet long. Their slender shape allows them to move quickly when feeding on small fish and plankton. Bryde’s whales are curious and will often approach boats for a closer look.
