The Gray Whales of Mexico
How can one describe the breathtaking moment when the whales come out of the waters and the mere sight of these gray marine mammals leaves you breathless with wonder?These giant mammals go to the Sea of Cortez every year during fall to escape the winter of Northern Bering and give birth in the tropical waters of the Pacific where they can also find a lot of food. It is best to watch these whales swimming with their babies in Magdalena Bay which is located just a little off the coast of Los Cabos. San Ignacio is equally as famous for whale watching but there is a higher possibility of seeing the whales in Los Cabos than any other location in Baja especially during the peak season from the end of December to the end of March. There are strict rules and laws that are imposed on whale watching tours to ensure that the whales are protected. Be a part of this tradition and include this memorable activity in your Mexico vacations itinerary.
Visiting the Best of Veracruz
The history and culture of Mexico is most vividly displayed in the city of Veracruz but it still is slowly metamorphosing into becoming a sought after tourist destination. The center of the city is a good place to while the day and night away in the main plaza called Plaza de las Armas. Historical buildings worth seeingThere are several old but well-preserved buildings that you should visit such as the Municipal Palace with its baroque style of architecture and the neo-classic Virgin de la Asuncion cathedral that were all built in the 17th century. Other interesting old buildings are Pemex Tower that used to be an old lighthouse, the Crafts Market, the Old Customs Building, the Postal and Telegraph Building, the City Registry Building and the Juarez Hemicycle Monument. The island where the historical Fort San Juan de Ulua is located is now connected to the mainland. You can go walking and exercising at several kilometers boardwalk known as the malecon. The Veracruz Aquarium is the largest aquarium in Latin America and is one of the latest developments of Veracruz. Not too far away is the day when Veracruz will be a primary destination in your Mexico vacation itinerary.
Enjoying your Cabo San Lucas Vacations
One place that should form part of a Mexico vacation is a visit to Cabo San Lucas which is considered as one popular tourist destination in Mexico. This place has stretches of beautiful white sand beaches and several restaurants. Cabo San Lucas is known as one of the best places for tuna and marlin fishing and hosts the worlds biggest marlin fishing competition which has a $1,000,000 jackpot. Gray whales migrate to the warmer waters of Cabo San Lucas to give birth or to escape the colder waters of their homes and this provides one of the most amazing experiences of whale watching. It is such an unforgettable experience to see these giant marine mammals with their calves frolicking in the turquoise waters of Cabo San Lucas. Schedule permitting, October 12 is a good time to go as this is the festival of the patron saint of Todos Santos with festival sports music, carnival fair, dancing and a lot of delicious Mexican cuisine. Whatever your chosen activity maybe, from swimming, whale watching, fishing, shopping or just soaking up the sun, a trip to Cabo San Lucas is definitely worthwhile.
