A Splash of Science:
The Southern Sea of Cortez plays host to an astonishing array of marine life, and this region boasts biodiversity that's through the roof. Keep an eye peeled for dolphins, sea lions, and a veritable smorgasbord of whales, including pilot, humpback, blue, fin, sei, orca, and sperm whales. The surface activity is nothin' short of spectacular - mark me right on that!
Water temps run from the mid-70s to low-80s in May/June, so don a 3mm wetsuit for comfort, and beware of the occasional sea-sickness. It's wise to carry your own sea-sickness meds, just in case your stomach turns.
