The world's largest salt production facility occupies vast portions of Guerrero Negro Lagoon.After processing, the salt is loading on barges and ferried out to large transport ships.Dozens of osprey nests are scattered throughout the area around the lagoon.
Ecoturismo Malarrimo panga, sporting a dignified hood ornament.A mother and her baby approach our boat.The baby's double blow holes are clearly visible in this shot.
Baby rises for petting.The whales clearly seek out and enjoy contact with humans.This baby moved back and forth between the two boats for about half an hour.
A whale's skin is very smooth, soft, and rubbery, and its nose is pocked with hairs.A momma whale approaches to check us out.Eye contact with these curious creatures is an incredible experience.
