love this! they are literally giant water dogs haha
Thank you Elizabeth, yes they are so much fun
I free dove in la paz with sea lions.
I'm a pretty fair hand in the water, pretty confident, and can breath hold for around 3 minutes or so - do alot of spear fishing here in Hawaii.
The kinematics of a sealion in its element are mindblowing, and they react so curiously when you (poorly) try and match thier loops and rolls in the water.
I had one try to "teach" me how to do it right. He'd face me and roll, and then hover there and wait. I'd roll. He'd loop, I'd loop If I did it well, he'd blow bubbles and grin (or appeared to) if I did it too slow or sloppy for his taste - he'd butt me in the gut with his nose, or yank on my fins with his teeth. and do it again, for me to repeat.
Amazing animals.
I would like to swim with them.
@@saynotohookups - what a beautiful experience.
Real communication, that's astonishing, thanks for telling us.
They look like they are having so much fun. Joy being expressed!
Yes they were super playful
Wild animals just playing with people. Very cool. Looks like fun. Very trusting to have it nibble on your bare hand but it was clear they were just having fun with you guys.
Thank you very much.
This is the most precious thing I’ve ever seen
Thank you! They are so much fun
sea lions are so cute!! they're like big water puppies😂 they just wanna play with you
That was awesome your brave putting your fist in its mouth. I would love to swim them like you did. Thanks for great video.
Thank you very much.
Can we also appreciate the clear water they are swimming at
My beautiful city💙
Se parece bastante a puerto escondido Oaxaca , he conocido los 2 lugares y son mágicos
@@mvoesa5861 supongo que ha de ser genial nunca he ido a Oaxaca y tampoco buceo hehe.
3:00 Exactly the same technique my youngest dog uses to steal socks off my foot when I'm asleep. "Not even... doing anything honest... No idea what you're - I HAVE THE SOCK IT'S MINE NOW LEGGGGEYT!!"
Yes they are like dogs. Dogs of the ocean :-)
Hermosa mi tierra, mi ciudad TODO
Seals are just so cute even when their babies their still cute when they are all grown up so much .^.
Yes they are cute and fun. I went back again last month and it was great again.
You gotta love the good quality
Stupendo!❤
Maravilhoso. Vida eterna
Such beautiful animals!!!!
Yes, indeed and so much fun.
Such cute creatures!!! As always Awesome vids bro....
Thanks Man! I always appreciate your support!
i wonder what goes thru an animals head at that point, meets a new species that does not flinch even when the teeth is against its limbs and neither is it aggressive. looks like a lot of fun and intrigue from both parts.
Yes it is a lot of fun and I wonder too what goes through their head. I went back last month and they were super playful again.
Господи, какие чудесные создания!
Sea lions do not belong in zoos. Zoos are prisons for animals. Seal lions belong in their natural habitats. THanks for this video. I will share your video on social media. Mexico is beautiful!
Thank you Javier for your comment and sharing my video. I agree, animals belong in the natural habitat.
beautiful vid! Thanks heaps for this.
Thank you

Thank you :-)
Their eyes are so vacant looking underwater. Still cute though. :)
Cool,what other dive site do you recommend in La paz?
I have not much else diving in La Paz. I have been to a few spots but they didn't impress me that much. The most famous spot is probably El Bajo. Unfortunately I have not been there. It is quite far and hit and miss. If you hit it can be amazing with schooling hammerheads.
perfect. show respecct
Eres de La Paz Lucas? O no mas estabas visitando-
Que feo se ve el agua por cierto- opaco. Wau. Cuando yo era niña, ese agua era cristalina! Y jamás nos metíamos con esos animales- los dejábamos en paz- Ya no hay paz en La Paz. Pero orita con la corona virus se me hace que se va a recuperar el mar!! Y los animales! Que padre!
Hello great video! I am planning to go to sjd this may and I will also visit la paz just to swim with these beautiful creatures and I was wondering with which tour did you dive with the sea lions. I am also a certified diver so I would appreciate your feedback. Thanks a lot!

does one need to hire a company to go to this tour? if so, does the price include vids andn pictures. and how deep is the water? (i'm not a good swimmer, can we still do it or not recommended). is water calm or unpredictable?
Hi Sandy, you have to go with an operator because it’s a small island off the coast. If water isn‘t calm they usually don’t even go there. I went with a scuba diving operator and did the pictures and videos all by myself. They water isn‘t very deep next to the island but deep enough that you can’t stand anymore. There are operators that offer snorkeling tours and I think they usually wear am safety vest that keeps you afloat. I hope that helps.
omg, my dog bites my hand the same way those sea pups do ^-^
Mine too :-) they are like dogs
play this at 2x speed for a good time
More like sea doggos.
Yes they are
OMG
Thanks
Sea puppies
Sea puppies indeed

How can I book this?
Hi Adam, I booked it through „dive in la paz“
@@LukasWalter I'm only seeing snorkeling with sea lions on their website. They also offer scuba diving for this?
Yes they do. When you look at the dive sites one is los islotes. This is were the sea lion colony is. But if you book better check with them first because they don’t go there on every day trip.
@@LukasWalter thanks friend!!!
There are rules to follow in this tour and the basics ones are to not get that close to the principal rock!, to not touch them and to never I say NEVER put your hand inside their mouth thats so dangerous, Sea lions have bacterias that can cause you to lose a limb, and due to not following the rules and forgetting sea lions are wild animals just caused what happened in La Paz lately and its tons of more rule that dont allow you to enjoy the experience as it was in the past.
Please if youre going to share a video, do it by following the rules, if not youre just causing more people to follow the same behaviour as yours
Strongly agree. . . for many, it's all about making a big hit on social media.
