#### Videos, photos and large collection of whale and turtle skeletons provide a fascinating insight into the region’s extraordinary aquatic life.

The Whale Museum is one of the most fun and enlightening attractions in La Paz. Identifiable by the giant whale replica that appears to be crashing through a redbrick wall, the iconic site contains a range of audiovisual displays and whale skeletons. Learn about these enormous creatures of the deep in this modern museum.

Make your way through the six exhibition spaces for a deeper understanding of whales. As you study the various models and skeletons, sounds of whale communications play on the speakers. Marvel at the sheer size of the whale bones and study old photos of caught fish.

Read the informative plaques about the gray whales that spend time in the region. It’ll give you ideas for snorkeling and scuba diving trips to nearby Isla Espiritu Santo. Join a guided tour and chat with the docent for further details.

Watch the films and find out about the museum’s conservation efforts for whales. You’ll also find a segment on the seven different species of turtles that are found in Mexico. See the exhibits on sharks, porpoises and other aquatic creatures living in local waters.

Purchase stuffed toy whales and all types of marine-related souvenirs in the gift shop. Relax with a hot drink or a snack in the café. After your tour of the museum, wander down the Malecón and enjoy the panoramic views of the sea. Get an ice cream and inspect the 16 sculptures adorning the boardwalk.

The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from morning until early evening. Buy a ticket to enter and get a discount for children.

Find the Whale Museum on the coastal boardwalk of the Malecón in the heart of La Paz. The structure is a 5-minute walk northwest of the Jardin Velasco. See other nearby sights such as the *Dove of Peace Monument*, the Malecón Kiosk and the Espectacular de la Paz.

8.4/10 Very Good! (213 reviews)

Swim out pool in front of room was fun. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food was better than expected. Only problem was that room backed on to the highway and was noisy. Other than that, the room was very large and comfortable.

8.8/10 Excellent! (33 reviews)

The room was amazing. 3 bedroom villa, family of 5\. Food was 8/10…we did all inclusive, if the prices we saw were accurate it would be almost prohibitive not to. Breakfast the best. Pools 9.5/10\. Really nice. Gym was 9/10\. Staff 10/10\. Nespresso coffee and pods in room. Currently construction on the ocean side of vista encantada, but wasn’t very impactful. Only real complaint was the pillows…small and flat. It was better than we expected from the Expedia descriptions. Scheduled van to/from airport was \~ $250 round trip for 5.
