MALAGA BAY
WHALES WATCHING
A natural treasure in our Pacific coasts.
The humpback whales arrive at the Colombian Pacific Coasts from Patagonia to breed, to give birth, and feed their calves.
The movie “El vuelco del cangrejo” (The crab´s rollover) was filmed at this place, and we will have the opportunity to meet some of the natural actors who accompanied the filming of this excellent Colombian movie. Local people can even liven up the evening with a traditional folklore show, based on Afro-Colombian music, near the sea.
