Every winter in North America, one of the world’s most majestic migrations occurs as whales travel down the west coast, many then traveling up into the Sea of Cortez. The health of these amazing creatures in part depends on the rivers along the west coast of the U.S. and Canada which provide fish, 
organisms, and nutrients that whales depend on for food and survival.
We are developing a program focusing on “Ocean and River Health,” an overlooked segment of the river- and ocean-protection movement, that specializes in the health of migrating whales, their riverine food sources, and their wintering grounds in the Sea of Cortez.
Working with local guides in and near Loreto Bay National Park, and other guides and research scientists in Southern Baja, we can help monitor whale health impacted by the corresponding food sources available to them from the rivers along the west coast of the U.S. and Canada.
Our work is based in Puerto Escondido, just south of Loreto, one of the most beautiful places in Baja, and a home base for eco-tourism and whale watching. We also launch out of the Costa Baja Marina in La Paz Bay, and Marina Cabo San Lucas, following the whales around the tip of Baja and up the East Cape into the Sea.
Stay tuned for more information, and for how you can help with this work and join us!
