Yellow Submarine

Best time to visit
June to October
Duration
Approx. 1 hr 30 min

Whales above and below the surface

Observe southern right whales from an extraordinary perspective: above the surface and underwater, aboard a semi-submersible specially designed to discover their world from close range.

The adventure begins in Puerto Pirámides, where we board Yellow Submarine, a semi-submersible vessel specially designed for southern right whale watching. Once underway, we can move freely between two spaces offering completely different perspectives. From the open deck, we enjoy traditional surface viewing, watching whales breathe, travel or linger near the boat. But the defining feature of this experience lies beneath our feet. Down in the underwater cabin, 40 viewing windows allow us to watch whales while they remain submerged close to the vessel. The sensation is similar to observing them on a dive, without having to enter the water. For approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes, we may alternate freely between the deck and cabin while a specialist guide accompanies the navigation and introduces us to the behavior and characteristics of these giants of the South Atlantic. Departure always depends on navigation conditions. On the day of the activity, the captain assesses whether conditions are suitable for safe whale watching.

Discover the world of whales above and below the water.

Face to face with the whales

From the deck, the Patagonian horizon and whales breathing above the sea. Beneath the surface, an entirely different world. Yellow Submarine invites you to observe southern right whales from two perspectives and discover how these giants move through the waters of Península Valdés.
