Whale Watching
By May the Gray whales have gone however there are still some species which can be seen and you could well be lucky enough to see a superpod of dolphins shadowing the schools of Yellowfin tuna. On occasion these super pods can number literally thousands of animals. Take a look at our section on whale watching to find out what species you can see around Los Cabos
Fishing
Fishing in Cabo is good all year round. It all depends on what type of fish you’re looking to catch or whether you are looking to participate in a tournament. Check out our Sportfishing article to see the season chart for fish and tournaments.
May is not a “hot” month for Cabo traditionally - but that doesn’t mean that you won’t catch fish! Every year is different and sometimes May can be very productive, and the IGFA have a tournament in this month so it can’t be all bad! “Good fishing” is a relative term here in Cabo: there are no bad days!
