Pioneers in Whale Watching
Since 1978, Captain Pinino has been a key figure in Península Valdés, dedicating his life to the observation of whales and dolphins.
Recognized as the longest-serving whale-watching captain still active, his experience and passion for the ocean make him a true icon of Patagonian whale watching.
