This carnival of whales can be seen from late November until May. Among the best places for observation are in northern Chile, in the Caleta Chañaral de Aceituno, as well as the Golfo Corcovado and the northeast of the island of Chiloé, in the south.
In the cove of Puñihuil, 25 km southwest of Ancud, on the same island of Chiloé, is the association of small businesses known as Ecomarine Puñihuil, who have a boat aptly suited to sail on the high seas with space for eight passengers.
The key months for sightings of the humpback whale in the Strait of Magellan are January and February. As this area is rich in sardines and krill, whales spend their time feeding in order to gain enough energy to migrate to warmer waters.
Since 2010 the Chilean authorities have officially pledged to support the protection of whales, promoting conservation and non-lethal use of whales. Chile is the country with second highest biodiversity of whales in the world.
